QuacksO's definitions

roarigin

Where one or more loud animal vocalizations, natural phenomenons, or revving-engine sounds came from.
I went for a jungle-hike looking for some gigantic machine dat was making a huge racket, but then I discovered dat da roarigin of said deafening throaty noises was just a pack of gorillas during breeding season.

Tropic of Cancer

The sector in the equatorial latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere where tobacco is grown.
I absolutely detest tobacco and cigarettes, so I’d prefer not to visit any area of the world that’s within the Tropic of Cancer… I’ll take my “balmy climate” vacation on the southern side of the equator, thank you very much.

Pillgrims

Da group of holistic-living hippie-sailors who emigrated from England so dat they could create and/or consume their own choices of dietary-supplement tablets/capsules, not just da types dat their "Big Pharma" English overlords wanted them to take.
Da Pillgrims were a cohesive group of "Pureitans" who didn't wanna taint their "clean 'n' pristine" bodies with a lot of artificial/chemical crap dat King George's predecessors wanted to sell them.

gateway drug

1. A sedative that you use in a tranquilizer-dart to render a security-guard temporarily unconscious so that you can pass through his checkpoint.
2. A marijuana joint that you use to bribe said guard into letting your pass through said checkpoint.
If Option #2 fails because the guard abstains from recreational-drugs and thus is not interested in your offer, then you may need to resort to the "airborne" gateway drug described in Option #1.

epiclectic mix

An assortment so diverse and radically-eccentric that one actually risks a seizure from trying to take it all in.
From what I've heard, Woodstock was an epiclectic mix of counterculture and entertainment such as had never been seen before nor has ever been seen since... zheeesh, I wish I could have been there to experience it for myself!

fastenation

A wonder and acute interest in nails, screws, and staples.
Every time I stroll down the nut 'n' bolt aisle in the hardware store, I hafta consciously keep my mind on my task at hand so that I don't let my fastenation with all those chrome-shiny doo-dads distract me and hold me up for half an hour.

no answer is good answer

A natural "take-off" of the classic "no news" proverb, this saying refers to when you receive no response to a potentially-controversial or "explosive" message that you had trepidatiously sent to an individual or business/government establishment sometime earlier; the idea here is that if your missive's recipient actually was able to "swallow" or "digest" your message's content without "going ballistic" and hot-headedly sending either a seethingly-angry response or the cops your way, then this indicates that the ultra-careful/tactful word-choices that you'd employed when originally composing your message must have paid off --- the recipient's very lack of any response is actually a response in itself, in that he is indicating to you that your message did not excessively upset him.
In today's heatedly-temperish and highly-emotionally-charged business/social world, merely not stressing out someone with a somewhat-unusual/unorthodox statement/request is a major and "worthy" achievement that puts you "ahead of the curve" just by itself, and so you should count your lucky stars and give yourself a pat on the back for good English-communication skills if you actually receive a merely "neutral" reaction when sending someone a potentially-upsetting message --- no answer is good answer, I always say.
