Unpeopley

Unpeopley: Having a preference to be away from most people in all situations, and especially an aversion to talking with strangers.
Someone once told me that I never met a stranger, because I love people, want to know everyone's story, and talk with everyone/anyone within earshot. John is the opposite, he is so unpeopley that he barely talks with anyone unless absolutely necessary...sometimes even when it IS necessary!

Death by Bliss

When you have a habit that is clearly bad for your health, but it gives so much happiness...pure joy and bliss, that you just stick with it anyway.
After a life of struggling through sleepless nights, Jane discovered cognac. Now when she wakes in the night, sipping some cognac makes her tickle, giggle, then fall back into a blissful sleep. She know it's unhealthy in the long term, but it's pure joy every single night. She's willing to accept death by bliss.

Re-opening Anxiety

The anxiety of post COVID-19 opening of everything without social distancing or sanitary precautions.
Also know as re-entry anxiety.
The thought of going back to our old filthy, pre-COVID-19 habits is giving me re-opening anxiety. Puleeeaaasseee let's at least not go back to the unsanitary, nasty habit of shaking hands!

Dirty-Dish-Tolerance, aka DDT

John has a much higher dirty-dish-tolerance, aka DDT, than Jane, so she ends up doing most of the dishes. She wonders if she is just encouraging him to do even less, but oh well, no big deal in the big picture.

Horror-giggle

The tendency to continue laughing in the face of the destruction of democracy and life we know and love.
As we watch Trump destroy democracy, facts, the climate, education, etc, we should be cowering in fear or up in arms, instead we can't resist jokes and horror-giggles at his clownish antics, despite the real danger to all.
