Words you can keep
A term referring to a person who grew up on a farm and is not familiar with city life, naive, often unsophisticated. Not too polite, often used as a derogatory term for Caucasian South Africans by the British and by people of former British Colonies such as Australia and New Zealand. It appears to have been derived from the Dutch term "plaasjapie" meaning a farm-boy, and implies someone who is ignorant and uneducated, aimed mainly at the Afrikaner (of Dutch origin)

A member of the beat counterculture, or one who lives a beat lifestyle. Similar to a hippie. The term comes from Jack Kerouac's book "The Dharma Bums." (Japhy is the name of a character, modeled after Kerouac’s friend Gary Snyder.)
"Colleges being nothing but grooming schools for the middleclass non-identity which usually finds its perfect expression on the outskirts of the campus in rows of well-to-do houses with lawns and television sets in each living room with everybody looking at the same thing and thinking the same thing at the same time while the Japhies of the world go prowling in the wilderness..." --The Dharma Bums

japiemon 

Few have ever seen the Japiemon, and even fewer have lived to tell the tale, but one thing is for sure; this pyromaniac and the Baroness of the Snowman is relentless and will not yield its thirst for more nom until all have fallen.

So beware.

It strikes when you least expect it, but you'll know. Oh you'll know and a chill will sliver down your spine as you hear in the dark night, the chilling call of the Japiemon, "jerp....jerpie..."
