CYA-ishness

A quality or attitude indicative of the desire to document one's lack of culpability for foreseeable negative outcomes.

Derived from the acronym CYA, which stands for "Cover Your Ass" -- common parlance in the American workplace, used when warning co-workers to protect themselves with adequate, blame-deflecting documentation.
Joe is thankful to the Legal department for refining his skills at inserting stealth qualifiers (such as: "can," "may" and "helps to ... ") to enhance the CYA-ishness of his written materials.

itisness

1. Itisness comes from itis which means being sleepy typically as a result of eating a large fatty meal. Itisness extends this to mean a state of relaxation or idleness.

2. Itisness was read as it-is-ness and so was interpreted as meaning a meditative state of being which is ironically similar to the original meaning. It is also used as a one word explanation for anything.
1. Sundays are my days of itisness, sitting on the couch watching talk shows.

2. I tried to find reasons why, but failed and had to settle for itisness.
