post democracy 

the term is relatively new. it refers to the current state of (political) affairs in the united states (but probably doesn't preclude the emerging political model in many european countries...). it basically refers to the ever-widening ideological gap that exists between the voters and those receiving the votes. a political model that underscores a voter's influence. this term was coined by gore vidal.

that ours is a post democracy can be evidenced by last month's poor voter turnout.

Post-Ironic Democracy 

When you run for office in a Democratic system, lose the vote, declare yourself the winner anyway and accuse everyone else of being the ones in denial.

"Before the election was called, I had a pretty good feeling about it, so I preemptively declare victory and anointed myself an Anarcho-Monarch of Ottowa. Then to my shock and also not shock at all, the elites appointed their own puppet-leader instead, Zed Shabibe. Or something, I dunno, I wasn't paying attention. I'm calling upon my supporters to not recognize the legitimacy of these so-called 'elected officials' unless it's ever me."
-- Jreg satirizing Post-Ironic Democracy in "I Won (And By A Lot)"

Post-Democratic Theokakifascoligatocracy 

The clusterfuck of Theocracy, Kakistocracy, Fascism, Oligarchy, and Corporatocracy that the American government is becoming, all stemming from the dismissal of democracy and the use of unfair and outdated vote counting processes like gerrymandering and the Electoral College that give greater power to smaller states per capita and whiter populations per congressional district.

"What is going on in the big ol' USofA these days?"

"Oh, not much. It's just becoming a Post-Democratic Theokakifascoligatocracy. No biggie."

Breadhead 

Someone who is addicted to obtaining money and building wealth. A money addict and fanatic. Breadheads often work more than one full-time job, and some even participate in illicit activities to "obtain the bread".

A breadhead is like a crackhead, but for money instead of crack.

schmegegge 

Yiddish slang word meaning bullshit, baloney, hogwash, nonsense, crock of shit or hot air.

I don't buy the schmegegge about Morty sleeping with Moira.
His version of the story was pure schmegegge.
The whole schmegegge was made up to get Liz a little bit of attention.
