Compulse 

A non-word that is often accidentally derived from the word 'compulsion' (which is in turn authentically derived from the word 'compel', or 'compelled'). This phenomenon might possibly be more common among fans of Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series.
Graendal can Compulse me any time she wants.

Words you can keep

compulse 

Well you see - it is very similar to the act of convulsing, but not. Convulsing is when one is foaming at the mouth like a rapid beast of nature whilst shaking uncontrollably and becoming partially blind. COMPULSE, however, is the very simple act of moving one's body when you do not know what else to do. This very real word can occur while dancing, blacking out or an unconscious habit when one feels extremely awkward.
"Oh my god. Look at that girl starting to compulse on the ground over there. Bitch is crazy!"

compulsive liker 

Someone who can't help themselves but to "like" everything that is going on in Facebook.
John is bitter and alone.

Geoff likes this!

John: Dude, what the hell?
Geoff: Sorry, man, I can't help it. I'm a compulsive liker.

Compulsory heterosexuality 

When somebody experiences "attraction" to the opposite gender because that expectation has been pushed on them by the patriarchal society, this is quite often experienced by lesbians. It is quite difficult to distinguish between your own feelings and those which you are expected to feel.
I don't know if I am really attracted to Harry Styles or it is just compulsory heterosexuality because I do think I am a lesbian.

CHD (Compulsive Hatred Disorder) 

CHD is an offshoot of the obsessive-compulsive family of disorders and is certainly one of the most dangerous. An individual suffering from CHD will respond to a wrong, or a perceived wrong, as a lethal threat to their personal well being and will begin a process of incrementally exaggerating the magnitude of the personal affront, or perceived personal affront, until they can justify to themselves the death of the object of their hatred. While it is true that people suffering from CHD rarely go through with the killing, they are prone to repeatedly try to encourage others to hate the individual in question to the same degree as them, and hopefully respond with a physical manifestation of that hatred.
Individual X's CHD (Compulsive Hatred Disorder) prevented her from holding down a regular job. Once she achieved employment she would make efforts to socialize. Invariably as a result of that socializing, something would be said that would rub her the wrong way. The emotional injury would then be left to fester until the only solution was to exaggerate its severity and come to the conclusion that the affront-causing speaker needed to be eradicated from the workplace or indeed from the world itself. She would then proceed to poison the work environment by trying to get other employees to agree with her.

cheater, cheater, compulsive eater 

it's a phrase on one of Friends series that Ross said to Monica

(everybody: "What????????")

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
