Wokiocy

A portmanteau of "woke" and "idiocy".

Now they're changing "monkey pox" to "M pox" because someone might be offended. I'm confident there's not a monkey in the world who cares. This is a perfect example of the wokiocy that has compromised common sense world wide.

pc gimmick

A marketing strategy designed to enhance the perceived worth, attractiveness or virtue of a person, product or service by pairing it with a trendy "socially conscious" movement or concept.

By claiming they only used locally grown, organic produce whenever possible, they were able to get $15.00 for two tiny, nearly tasteless vegetarian tacos. This was an example of a pc gimmick at its finest.

geezerdom

A geezer's personal kingdom (personal world view). Rather than lamenting the infirmities and liabilities of advancing age (though not wholly denying them), the geezer revels in the psychological and even physical freedom resulting from advanced age. No need for schedules, no worries about what others think, etc. The world is the geezer's oyster--his or her geezerdom.

The old gent smiled as he considered his geezerdom.

Cheeseton

A portmanteau of "cheese" and "crouton". A cube of (usually hard) cheese placed into a bowl of soup or stew. The cheese becomes soft but essentially retains its shape, adding flavor, textural variety and heartiness to the dish.

That soup was pretty good on its own, but the addition of that parmesan cheeseton made it something special!!

stooter

A small electric scooter with tiny wheels, the top speed of which is slightly faster than most people walk. This type of scooter is very popular among tourists and wannabe hipsters in urban areas. Such scooters often lack turn signals or lights, impede conventional vehicles and put the operators and others at risk. This type of scooter is a stupid scooter--hence, a "stooter".

I almost hit a guy riding one of those stooters.
