humidex

The humidex is a computed value combining the temperature and humidity into one number. It is used to describe how hot or humid weather feels to the average person.

The number is only significant over 30 degrees celcius.

Essentially, on a really hot day, when there's signicant humidity, it generally feels way hotter than the actual temperature.
Holy crap, the humidex just hit fucking 40!!! It's too fucking hot to exist today!

(for those who live south of the border of Canada and the USA, 40 degrees celcius is actually 104 degree fahrenheit)

humilitate

The process of a soldier being broken and indoctrinated through basic training by a drill sergeant, such that the ego is replaced by strict obedience to a C.O.'s every order and unwavering loyalty to your fellow soldier.
Didya see Full Metal Jacket? Man, if that Private Pyle wasn't a can short of six-pack, Gunnery Sergeant Hartman might've humilitated him instead of being shot.

I had to have a good sense of humility to listen to my teammate's advice, even though i have been playing baseball a lot longer than him.

Humilitarian

An individual who has chosen to make dignity a part of their character and submit themselves to the life process as imposed by life itself.

An individual who chooses to locate the principle of life's challenges----and remain confident in self worth and skill building opportunities.
All life (situations) are relative------If someone stole from me, I; as a practicing "humilitarian" have to recount my past and find where I took something that did not belong to me.

Although technicalities are present---the core of the situation will direct my response(in opposition to react)

Dutch Humidor

n. Similar to the Dutch Oven, the Dutch Humidor occurs when one farts in a shower equipped with a shower door. The resulting odor, magnified by the humid shower steam and enclosed area, stays pungent for a much longer period of time, similar to that of a cigar staying fresher longer in a humidor.
Unbeknownst to Emily, the combination of the previous night's draft beer and chili created the perfect Dutch Humidor for Bill as he showered in the morning. She was nearly knocked unconscious when it was her turn to shower.
