Flicker-Knicker or Flicka-a-nika

Anglo-American term for a “wedgie” or “snuggy,” a word that was frequently used in the US in the 1970's and 1980’s to describe what happens when your undergarments make their way (intentionally or not) up into the crack of your buttocks. The term is derived from the act of flicking one’s knickers--the British word for women’s panties (i.e. long bloomers formerly worn as underwear by women and girls).

I hate wearing this polyester thong because it has given me a chronic case of flik-a-knicker—not too mention a raging case of jock-itch.

Byron’s incessant attempts at giving Gertrude a flicka-nicka were mildly amusing, but eventually became deeply boorish, particularly after he managed to tear the poor woman’s panties.

Corruptometer

Simple anthropometric device used for measuring the correlation between personal corruption and the girth of the bellies of inhabitants of impoverished regions of the world. One notes a generalized increase in levels of illicit behavior as the belly measurements increase. Bolstered by designer gyms, chic life-styles and personal trainers, radically different conclusions will be noted from analysis of corruptometer readings drawn from subjects from the post-industrial world.

"We used the corruptometer to suss out who was dastardly in the group of strangers who took us in following the fall of the dictatorship."

Madame Bovary Syndrome

From Gustave Flaubert’s 1857 novel, modern Madame Bovary syndrome refers to a woman plagued with tendency to assume massive consumer debt in order to support a chic or extravagant life-style.

My rejection of the “ownership society” clashed with my former wife’s Madame Bovary Syndrome. Her profligate consumerism and aspirations for the “pretty life” lead to mountains of credit card debt.
