money laundering

Something you unfortunately cannot learn to do by looking it up in a dictionary.

If you've come here to, just turn yourself over to the police and tell them where you got all the money. It's probably for the better.

I got it, we'll just launder the money! My junkie cousin used to do money laundering all the time.

money laundering

When you wash your clothes and forget there's money in the pockets.

Don't forget to empty your pockets—you don't want to get arrested for money laundering.

Laundrecon

Contraction of "Laundry" and "Recon".

In buildings or dorms where laundry facilities are shared, it may be necessary to do a reconnaissance mission.

Otherwise you risk bringing your dirty clothing all the way to the laundry room, only to find that every machine has been taken, forcing you either to wait awkwardly for someone to retrieve their garments or schlep everything back to your room.

I'm wearing my only clean pair of boxers. I'd better do some laundrecon to check if a machine is free.

quote-laundering

The act of citing a source to support a hypothesis and burying the reference in a footnote or endnote that, once investigated, turns out to be irrelevant, spurious or entirely fictitious.

Similar to quote-stuffing, a common practice in academic paper-writing, but not to be confused with quote mining.

I was trying to track down that juicy reference that Malcolm Gladwell dropped about what Nietzsche said about cell phones but it turned out to be total quote-laundering.
