Passenger assessment

The tendency, especially while waiting for a plane, to scan one's fellow passengers for signs of violent intention. This tends to increase after an airline incident or near incident.

Jake surreptitiously looked up and down the many aisles of chairs as he waited for his plane to arrive at the gate. Passenger assessment is an essential part of flying these days. he rationalized.

Spousal Arousal

The very welcome sense of excitement when one is turned on by one's partner. It often occurs suddenly and unpredictably after long periods of the couple's intimate complacency. It can sometimes happen when one of the partners mistakes his or her spouse for another person.

Felicia: "What's that look for?"

Horatio: "Your shoulders look really nice today."

Felicia (purring now): mm mm spousal arousal, huh?

Horatio (panting now); Uh huh.

Winter wonderland psychosis

The phenomenon in which a person begins to see the cold, the snow and the gray sky as beautiful. Often they will describe the cold as "invigorating", the snow as "crystal blue" and the frigid season as "cozy". The use of these descriptors for the early months of the year is, in fact, diagnostic for this malady. The only effective treatment is a move to a warmer clime.

Lesley (euphorically giggling) "I love the crunch of the crystal blue snow under my feet when I walk to my car. The season is so invigorating! Tonight I want to stay in and make cocoa for the whole neighborhood!"

"That's it. You have to see a professional. You have winter wonderland psychosis."

Self inflicted complaint blockage

The reluctance to report a serious work issue for fear that those reading or hearing the complaint will view the issue as petty. The complainant fears that he or she will be viewed forevermore as a sniveling weasel. The result is that the issue will remain unresolved until it takes on another unrelated dimension that is extremely damaging to the workplace. At this point, another worker will report the original complaint and will be given full credit for saving the company.

Worker 1: "I think that we have to let people in HR know what Stacey and Ed have been up to. She's getting away with murder. She's using him, he's letting her and both of them are married anyway."

Worker 2: "There's no way I'm going to bring up favoritism and their adolescent extramarital dalliances to HR."

Worker 1: "Self inflicted complaint blockage?"

Worker 2: "You got it."

Work zombie

An employee who experiences a loss of consciousness that can go on for hours or days. In this state, he or she will have no memory at all of the work he or she performed. Also known as work autopilot and work robot, these are usually people who feel that they have no future in their own company. It is believed that the "lost" time is spent in internal calculation so as not to allow the brain cells to atrophy.

"Jones, you cretin. What were you thinking? Were you paying any attention at all to your work?"

(In a fog) "Sorry boss. I must have become a work zombie. "

Master lesbianator

The older woman in some pornographic movies who orchestrates lesbian sex between two or more much younger women. Generally one or more of these younger women insist that they are straight. It is the master lesbianator's job to at first scold, then cajole, then direct the younger women in their lovemaking techniques. These women learn very quickly under her more mature tutelage. It is customary for the master lesbianator to sensitively praise the often formerly straight women after completion.

"Hey what's this old broad doing in this lesbian scene?"

"She's the master lesbianator. The other girls wouldn't know what to do without her."

"You're kidding me right?"

"I wish. The director is trying to be artsy."
