Godomite
A practitioner of the most grave and foul of sins: Godomy... Which is to say, of course, someone who's become so deliriously happy with having god up their own ass that they try to forcibly shove god up your ass as well.
This is distinct from someone who tries to shove a non-deitic imaginary being up your ass... The proper term for that sort of person is "demented ass-freak". You can keep the specifics clear with this handy rule of thumb: Remember... All godomites are demented ass-freaks, but not all demented ass-freaks are godomites.
Anyone currently living in the US will recognize this one right away, but probably assume it refers only to radical christians. Actually it means anyone who tries to forcibly shove any deitic being up your ass.

Preacher Bob: Do you know JC? Lemme tell you about JC! JC is so wonderful, he can walk on water! JC died for your sins! I -love- JC, he's the best. Everything is better with JC! What would JC do? No JC, no peace - Know JC, know peace! Have you accepted JC as your personal dominatrix... -er- ...I mean "savior"! heh... Silly me.
Healthy person: Eeek!! Godomite! Get away from me!

reverse robin hood
The Republican policy in US politics of taking from the poor to give to the rich.. The heart and soul of just about any Republican tax cut, initiative, or fiscal policy program.
See... We'll cut medicare, medicaid, food stamps, student loans, pell grants, welfare, social security, and grants for the arts... And we'll apply those savings to a tax break for the wealthiest 1/2% of Americans... Ta-da! Reverse Robin Hood!

by proxy
A Proxy is the authority to represent another person or entity... Especially in the capacity of voting issues, such as on a board of directors.
This authority can be granted willingly, (as in the case of someone who cannot attend a meeting sending another to vote in her place) or unwillingly (such as in the case of a parent's authority over the affairs of a child. It can be granted with or without limitation ("Go to the meeting and vote yes on the takeover, for all my shares." or "The Executor is granted any and all reasonable powers necesary to manage and maintain the estate of Jonh, while he is in his coma.")
A parent, for instance, holds an automatic right of proxy in certain interests of her child. The child need not and cannot make decisions not granted her by her parent, because the parent has the legal authority to make those decisions for the child.
When something is done or decided by proxy, it means the actual effort of action, and sometimes the decision, was made by someone else.

weasel words
Language designed to sound like something without actually saying anything... Deliberately so ambiguous or watered-down as to be essentially meaningless.

fag dyke
A butch lesbian who shows a pronounced preference for other butch women.
Most probably coined because such a relationship defies the woefully myopic & grossly uninformed but no less typical "which one's the man?" question, and produces a couple that bears a resemblance, in straight eyes, to a gay male couple.

transdyke
A self-identified lesbian or dyke who happens to have been born with the birth defect of a wholly or semi-operative penis.
This term can sometimes be applied to such a person after said birth defect has been altered by means of corrective surgery, but is more appropriate before such repairs have been undertaken.
