anismism 

1) a school of thought which runs contrary to ismism.
2) a school of thought which runs contrary to the school of thought that schools of thought need labels.

Note: Implicit in anismism is a self-referential recursive paradox, however anismists don't think in absolutes and don't dwell on irresolvable paradox so it isn't really a problem.

Also: anismist - a subscriber to the idea of anismism
anistist - one who is against people who are for things.

Possible abbreviated forms: anism, anist
1) Spiritualism and Atheism are both equally irritating for much of the same reasons. Both are philosophical masturbation with no other practical purpose, thus I instead subscribe to anismism.

2) I find anyone who rigidly defines themselves by a philosophy which contains unprovable assumptions irritating. I am an anistist.

3) It would be an anist's wet dream dip Richard Dawkins and Bruce Chapman in a vat of personal lubricant and then lock them both in the same room.

Noun. Portmanteau of "street" and "road": it describes a street, er, road, built for high speed, but with multiple access points. Excessive width is a common feature. A common feature in suburbia, especially along commercial strips. Unsafe at any speed, their extreme width and straightness paradoxically induces speeding. Somewhat more neutral than synonymous traffic sewer.
Did you see what the traffic engineers want to do to our street? They're going to turn it into a total stroad!
