QuacksO's definitions

museician

An orchestra-member or symphony-writer who puts much reflective thought into his performances or compositions.

Da horrendously-awful so-called "music" dat's shamelessly cranked out today cannot have required any degree of creative talent or careful thought, so it sure enough wasn't written by any true museicians!

exseed your expectations

What you hope dat your crop-yield will do, but never really count on it.

Usually da Gurney's, Burpee's, and Park's catalogs really hype and puff da growing/harvest-claims of da little dried things inside their proffered planting-packets, so you should not exactly expect an actual "bumper crop" on much of anything dat you order from them --- about da only germination and flourishing dat will likely exseed your expectations will be all of those blasted WEEDS dat you're constantly having to dig or pull out! :P

brew-haha

An uproarious party where people toss down copious amounts of malted beverages and guffaw raucously over every even-mildly-humorous remark that's drunkenly uttered by any of the participants.

A brew-haha can also be a coffee-break where people swig cups of joe laced with nitrous-oxide and then "laugh it up big time" afterwards.

conflict of interest

An unfair-to-the-customer motivation that money-hungry banks have to maintain someone's having to make payments on a loan for as long as possible.

I borrowed a thousand dollars from a local credit-union so that I could pay some local tradespeople to perform much-needed repairs on my home and vehicle. But then as it turned out, these "over-booked with repair-jobs" folks were not able to get to my repairs as soon as they'd expected, and so I didn't need the loaned money nearly so soon as I'd thought I would; I realized that I'd likely be able to pay the carpenters and mechanics "on my own" just with extra-frugality-saved funds over the next few months. So I merely returned the thousand dollars to the credit union within just two or three months after I'd taken out the loan; the clerk seemed none to pleased, since they'd only made about 22 bucks extra in the deal, instead of maybe close to a hundred if I'd taken a year to pay it all back, the way they had expected me to. Guess there was a little conflict of interest there.

perillel

A "similar in one or more respects" connection between two separate hazardous situations, dangerous statuses, etc.

Dealing with "spoiled rich kid" individuals has many perillels to raising venomous snakes --- in both cases, you run a great risk of getting "bitten".
