epicaricacy

Joy at the pain of another, esp. a friend or loved one

When my rich, moralizing brother, who always lectures me about responsibility and family values, was caught by his wife in bed with her best friend, and she divorced him and took everything leaving him broke and despondent, the epicaricacy was almost more than I could stand.

elitard

Portmeanteau of 'elite' and 'retard'. A person who takes an unusual amount of pride in being stupid. Kind of like a classhole, except an elitard is not limited to physical assholishness. The elitard takes special pride in his or her wordy, snide, commentary along with their classholish shenanigans. Occasional elitardedness on the level of class clown is welcome, although, when persistent and out of control, is usually frowned upon and will lead to you getting your ass kicked by everyone you talk to.

"Did you hear the joke Chris made about Ryan's mom?"

"Yeah, his mom just died. Chris is such an elitard. Let's beat him up."

Epitrontion

Noun: Something on the edge of an expensive and complex technological system.

Most often used in advanced engineering structures to indicate legitimate systems configuration.

Man: Did you see the epitrontion hanging from the node?

Girl: Yeah that was a legit system config! I look forward to learning the stratisification of these logistics.

Man: That sounds acceptable.

Politicians’ Epitaphs

The unspoken words invisibly inscribed on the tombstones of famous or notorious political leaders, whose earthly decisions and actions (or inactions) have positively or negatively impacted millions of people when they were the head of state (or even after they had relinquished power).

A leaked document entitled “Politicians’ Epitaphs” from the secret department of a NATO member state has the following printed:

Here lies Vladimir V. Putin with promises of peace—waiting to be canonized by the Orthodox Church.

Here lies Donald J. Trump with no more lies—hoping to be a future Dalai Lama or Pope.

Here lies Kim Jong-un, on transit to join his dad and grandad—in Hades.

Here lies Robert G. Mugabe on reclaimed white land—still in purgatory.

Here lies Harry Lee Kuan Yew—as long as the whites rule the “fine” city.
