diplospeak

The dialect of slang, or euphemismistic speech used by diplomats and politicians when they want to say something terrible about someone, but don't want to pay the consequences of saying such a terrible thing.

From NY Times, 10/22/05: 'Mr. Bolton, who termed Mr. Mekdad's denials "ridiculous," accused Syria of failing to cooperate with the investigators, which, he said, was "diplospeak for obstruction of justice."'

process

1. Do something, (or at least pretend to).

2. Method of doing something, (or at least pretending to).

3. To chop or mix ingredients as in a food processor.

4. To compute.

If this blasted computer doesn't stop pretending to process stuff and find some process for completing the process I assigned it, I'm going to put its processor into a blender and process it but good!

moralphobia

The irrational insecurity felt by moralphobes; people living alternative lifestyles who realize that others find their lifestyles morally repugnant. Usual symptoms include retaliatory labeling with words such as homophobia and intolerance, and duh-weebish abuse of the recommend for deletion link.

The predictable political, (see politics), moralphobic response is to curb free speech and promote intolerance of the expression of moral values dissenting from their own.

hang together

1. To hang out together, as in a clique, either out of loyalty or attraction to one another, out of disdain for others, or out of desperation when no one else will hang with you.

2. To take the heat together, either out of loyalty to one another, or when given no choice. Derives from the stereotypical lynching, which involves hanging from a noose.

1. No one else will have them, so the duh-weebs hang together.

2. If a lynch mob finds you with that perv when they catch him, you'll hang together.

parentheses

Punctuation that some duh-weebs are starting to include in the spelling of the "words" they define.

Even if some other duh-weeb would bother to look up the definition of your personal name, do you really think he's going to include a parenthetical phrase when he's spelling it?

legislator

One who authors and approves legislation on behalf of the populace, usually a representative such as a congressman or senator.

See conflict of interest and self-serving.

In a democracy, the authority to author and approve legislation would reside with the people. However, that would not be conducive to the job security of lawyers and politicians, so legislators make sure it isn't done that way.

blood-sucker

A parasite. One who uses others.

I'm not that blood-sucker's friend! He doesn't have friends, just distant acquaintances and people that he's used up.
