reEtraction 

In this ever changing modern world, we rely more and more on mobile devices, the internet and social networking services to connect with people and express out points of view.
Sometimes we can write or post things that we come to regret at a later point in time, once all the implications of having shared such material become more clear.

A traditional retraction is a public statement by the author or source of an earlier statement, that withdraws, or cancels the previous statement.
A reEtraction is a retraction of something specifically posted or shared on the internet and accessed mainly by eletronic devices.
Usually done by deleting or removing all traces of the offensive text / material and just hoping that no one noticed and recorded it while it was out there.

John : " Man, that was pretty doucey of me yesterday when I got smashed and then wrote all that crap on my Facebook page..."
Rick : " You posted some blasphemous shit man. A lot of people are pissed..."
John : " It seems as though a serious reEtraction is in order..."

Ex 2 :
John : " Pardon me, I have to make a bee-line for home to reEtract some incrimidating pictures that I should not have posted yesterday..."

addition by retraction 

The idea that you earn some major points as a medical student if you do an exceptional job and remain utterly enthusiastic while performing a seemingly mundane task such as pulling back tissue in surgery for your attending doctor.

Student 1: "I can't believe Johnny got that residency spot. Must've been his positivie attitude and his efforts to do everything he could to help out his attendings in surgery."

Student 2: "Yeah, must've been a case of 'addition by retraction'."

Retracting tortoise 

A phrase used in response to somebody doing or saying something so unattractive, that the most mighty of erections would quickly shrivel to the size of an acorn. Very much like the head of a tortoise would retract within its shell.

"Dude, did you see Lucy eating that sausage and egg mcmuffin earlier?"
"Yeah man, she got mustard up her nose and proceeded to spoon it out and eat it, total retracting tortoise."

The Retraction / Retractaballs 

The involuntary retraction of the meat of the penis sometimes experienced during and/or after one enjoys a run of long distance; or in extreme conditions. This will often display itself in the form of an excessive presence of foreskin and as has been documented on many occasions an extreme pain experienced in the region of the gouch which can be aggrevated during an apres run shower.

The appearance is also know as 'the turtle neck', 'the flumrunner', 'the lost hot dog' and 'man down'

Symptoms:

An inability to pee straight
A disproportionately large ratio of foreskin to penis
Chaffing around the gouch or, if circumcised, the bell end
Bleeding in the shower if excessive

Cures:
Heat, through masturbation
Heat, through vagina
Heat, through fire

Definition of The Retraction / Retractaballs

"How far have you been today?" "Too far, I've got retractaballs..."

"Oooo, man, thats one hell of a retraction"

"Darren told me to take a look at his turtle neck the other day," "I wondered why...didn't expect him to start stretching his foreskin infront of me, though..."

"Shall we wake up your flumrunner"

"Who ate 'the last hot dog'..."

"Bravo One Two Zero, Over, We have a Man Down...Looks serious, emergency evac. needed."
