compounce 

Swinging chandelier, delicate on appearance but sturdy in structure to last long in the 1800's, many families passed them from generation to generation as relics, modern day haunted houses often use the design
While the compounce looked fragile with its thousands of hanging crystals, it really was an old relic that had survived not one, but two earthquakes.

Lake Compounce Family Amusement Theme Park 

The greatest place to be in Connecticut during the summer. If you need a summer job you have a 95% chance of getting one here. Working here is one of the greatest experiences ever if you love working outside and you are a people person with A LOT of patience. Rides is the greatest department...and one of the main reasons why we have guests. If you are like me...you will live at this place and this place will be one of the only things in your life that makes you happy.
Young girl goes to Lake Compounce Family Amusement Theme Park her entire life...Goal for when she grows up: to work at Lake Compounce. She gets a job there when she is 16, becomes overly obsessed and wants her ashes blown over the lake after she passes away and gets cremated.

Employee becomes overly obsessed with the Lake that she actually creeps her coworkers out and her manager cracks jokes.

Stealthie 

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
