Dallitude 

"Dallitude" (somewhat less frequently spelled “Dallatude") is a “Dallas attitude.” It has been described as the display of snobbery and/or elitism of a resident from Dallas, TX.

It's believed the term “Dallitude” was first found on a gay newsgroup posting from 1999; the term possibly originated in Dallas' gay community.

Today, Dallitude is more likely to refer to anyone from the city of Dallas displaying a "superior" attitude.
Example A: Down-talking the way others are dressed in a Dallas nightclub. "Can you believe her shoes?" This is display of Dallitude.

Example B: Driving a leased BMW on a $30k/year salary. This could be considered display of Dallitude.

Example C: A Dallas resident trash-talking other Texas cities while failing to acknowledge Dallas has just as many or more problems. Such as saying "Houston is polluted and crime-ridden!" In reality, Dallas ranks just a few places behind Houston on air pollution, and ranks higher than Houston on crime. This is Dallitude.

duckitude 

duckitude: to live life with resilience and optimism, to live in the present, to display duckiness, to feel ducky. Feeling ducky means feeling good, fine, or wonderful. The most significant historical and traditional aspect of "duckitude" is optimsim and resilience as noted in the almost ancient phrase -- "Like water off a duck's back." "The hard times were like water off a duck's back for him/her."
Resilience is not *just* about optimism — irony and an ironic perspective about the absurdness of many aspects of life can help keep a ducky floating upright. You can say the words “just ducky” in a tone that conveys, “things are really fine” or you can say it with a tone that translates “not even close to ducky.”

For those who are much more analytical, please note that the attitude of a ducky *is* different than the attitude of a duck, but similar. So, if that most popular duck-related quote is “he/she handled it just like water off a duck’s back” is true of ducks then it is three times more true of a rubber ducky.

Eckhart Tolle, the author of “A New Earth” and “The Power of Now,” offers us another view of “duckitude.” In both books, Tolle observes that when two ducks get into a tussle, they end it by flapping their wings and swimming off. As far as he can tell, they don’t stay mad – they don’t carry a grudge. They flap their wings and get on with life. The “duck lesson,” according to Tolle is “Flap your wings, which translates as ‘let go of the story.’” The human mind, in other words, often gets attached to THE STORY and relives it over and over again, thus, living mostly in the past and not in the present.

If you have duckitude, then you can be said to be duckified — kind of like dignified, but duckier. Use of the word might include “let’s go out and duckify the world” or “I am living the duckified life."
