monty pythonesque application of the principles of logic and etymology
The standard logic used by such people as the knights of the round table. It's sound logic that can only be understood by men of science.
E.g. You want to test if a woman is a witch. You burn witches, but you also burn wood. This means witches burn because they are made of wood. Wood also floats in water, just like a duck. So therefore, if she weighs the same as a duck, then she is made out of wood, and is therefore a witch. Now you must weigh her on a set of large scales with a duck, and if they weigh the same, she is guilty of being a witch.

Well, Bernard, that is some Monty Pythonesque application of the principles of logic and etymology right there!

P-Dub (application)
P-Dub is a term, utilized by "urban health" social workers in British Columbia, Canada. P-Dub eloquently and succinctly refers to Persons with Disabilities (PWD) applications, which are submitted to the BC Ministry of Social Development & Poverty Reduction. Utilizing the term "P-Dub" makes the process of completing these lengthy applications less mind-numbing, thereby improving morale, enthusiasm, and staff retention in the long run.
Please say "P-Dub" the next time you are working on a PWD application, in order to feel united with your fellow social worker colleagues. Blessings!

Ratfucker
Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
