sarcasmic insultion

When one person says something mean to another, that they really mean, and pass it off as sarcasm.

E.G. 1
Jack and Mary are sitting in a room talking, and Jeff walks in
Jack (to Mary) Man! It's Jeff. Lets leave now.
Mary (to Jack) Yeah, I hate Jeff. He always pisses me off.
Jeff: Laughs
Mary and Jack: Laugh

E.G. 2
Mary: Jeff you're ugly go away. Smiles, pretending to be sarcastic
Jeff: Fuck you bitch. I'm tired of your sarcasmic insultion.

Intuition

The ability to understand something immediately, without the need for conscious reasoning. Or a thing that one knows or considers likely from instinctive feeling rather than conscious reasoning.

Use your intuition wisely

insultainment

print, broadcast or online content, especially that distributed by a commercial entity, which is so stultifyingly stupid and/or devoid of actual news or information that it can only be considered an insult to the intelligence of (and may even induce fits of rage in) the viewer.

i told my dad he needs to start watching something other than the o'reilly factor. all that insultainment's no good for his blood pressure!

insultation period

In a corporate setting, when making staff redundant, there is a legal requirement to pretend that the proposed staff cuts are merely being considered, and have not formally been decided on. There is a gap of several weeks “consultation period” between the announcement and the actual redundancies taking effect. During this period people who are about to be summarily executed get several weeks to be repeatedly asked how they “feel about the changes”. Since this “consultancy” is entirely fictitious, and is in fact a patronising artefact of gormless corporate stupidity , it is more accurately referred to as the “insultation period”.

Fuck me, I’ve just been made redundant after 10 years service! I just have to endure the insultation period for the next 2 weeks, but then I bring in the wheelbarrow to pick up my payout!_

mother's intuition

An immediate unreasoned understanding that a mother has toward something regarding the well being of her child.

Jane didn't want her son Billy to go to the party. Her "mother's intuition" sensed something bad was going to happen.
