tycoonitis

The tendency of corporate executives appointed to high positions in government service to regard Congressional oversight as interference with their perogatives, and hence to resist it.

"I call this 'tycoonitis,'" House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Tom Lantos (D-Calif.) said: "People who come from the top of the corporate ladder" - Agency for International Development Administrator Randall Tobias came from Eli Lilly - "who consider congressional suggestions, requests for information and participation in decision-making as intruding on their turf." Later, Tobias was busted using an escort service.

Tyronitis 

A condition where you're stomach swells to gargantuan proportion, but you manage to convince yourself it is not fat.

When someone says:

It's not fat, it's muscle

(Tyronitis)

Malady where one has the sudden urge to eat the children of others (ref: Lennox Lewis, "I want to eat his children")

I think Joe has Tysonitis, he said he wanted to eat my kids!
