cryptonight

What your undertaker-beau sorrowfully tells you when he is obliged to decline your request for a "moonlight stroll" because he has an urgent job in the burial-cellar of the monastery that will likely keep him busy till well past midnight. A really "heavy" statement that totally "weighs you down" emotionally, but what are ya gonna do?
My main squeeze unexpectedly hadda assist da local priest in giving last rights to a recently-deceased fellow member of the clergy in the church basement this evening, and so he was obliged to sadly shake his head and tearfully tell me, "cryptonight". He did manage to get done with said job a bit earlier than he'd expected, though, and so he was eventually able to race home and change and then come and pick me up, after all; due to the late hour, we couldn't have a full-length date like we normally would, of course, but at least we still got to stretch out on the quiet wharf for half an hour, savoring the soft lapping of the waves on the pilings, and gazing up at all da friendly twinkling stars.

Immorril Worcester

Da mean-spirited a**h**e CEO of a sizeable Maine corporation dat sponsors da infamous "Wreaths Across America", with "donations" dat are actually just old crappy-wilted unsold/excess wreaths --- leftovers from da winter-holiday season --- dat nobody would have bought anyway... from what I am told, he gets a hefty tax-writeoff and/or money-laundered profit for doing that. Disgraceful!
As badly as Immorril Worcester treats his workers, and as many legal debacles as he's been involved in, I am amazed he still is in business.

oral history

Da timeline detailing your various "suckcesses" with a number of fellow humans.
With her lovely enticing looks and such huge juicy smoochy lips, I'll bet you dat Monica Blewinsky has a much more extensive oral history than just dat one highly-publicized fling with dat crooked-cocked Prez back in da '90's!

hexpert

Someone who fancies himself an authority on black magic and voodoo.
A hexpert can also mean someone who is really good at using standard-cinfigured bolts and nuts, but perhaps knows little about square-headed fasteners.

LieDAR

A cutting-edge-technology terrain-surveying system that measures how many pathological liars exists in a given area. Since the target-blips all look the same on the machine's display-screen and therefore cannot be differentiated from one another, however, this system is actually quite ineffective at determining specifically which people to watch out for as being truly dangerous, especially as you travel into areas with higher populations of sport-fishermen, lawyers, politicians, used-car salesman, Bible-thumpers, etc.
If an evenly-distributed few of the vast crowds who were watching the Emperor's procession had employed hand-held LieDAR systems just as soon as The Emperor had started parading down the main street while "wearing his new clothes", these reliable-technology-aided individuals could have seen for sure that everyone else was actually just fibbing about being able to see the foolish Monarch's magnificent panoply, plus, of course, they's also know for certain that their own eyes were not, in fact, playing tricks on them, either. These "vindicated skeptics" could therefore have just loudly reassured everyone else in the surrounding multitudes that their being able to see nothing but a naked fat guy ambling down the main street looking like a total jackass was in reality **totally normal**... in other words, the Emperor really and truly WAS galumphing along the avenue "sans stitches", and so everyone could then have hastily stopped all the pompous foolishness --- and possibly also caught those two scheming shifty-eyed "dream-weavers" ('cuz dreams were, in fact, da only thing dat these two swindlers truly knew how to weave) before they got too far away --- and done so long before the Innocent Little Boy finally "broke the spell" with his "shockingly-impertinent tongue" when he casually blurted out to everyone around him about the Emperor's being in his birthday-suit.

warm-up work

Refers to comparatively short intervals of labor that you perform in one of two situations:
(1) Where you are dreading an impending "big job" that involves strenuous and/or disgusting labor, and so you perform a less-disagreeable task beforehand to sort of "break yourself in gently" so that the upcoming drudgery won't be such a traumatic shock to your mind and body.
(2) Where a necessary task is tiring, discouraging, boring, aggravating, etc., and so you would much rather play video games or surf the Web, instead of performing said menial torture. So what you do is to "compromise" --- you do indeed go ahead and push the "power" button on your computer or PlayStation, but then you go off and perform some of the disagreeable task while your entertainment-equipment is booting up; you would still have to wait those few minutes before beginning your fun with the equipment, anyway, and so it doesn't feel quite so "yucky" to hammer away at the exhausting ordeal for those same few minutes; it also makes you feel more productive during that period than just numbly twiddling your thumbs while waiting for your equipment to be ready to use.
As a physically/mentally-infirm bachelor living alone, I find that warm-up work is a real life-saver for many necessary tasks that I might otherwise find excessively discouraging or exhausting, such as hanging out clothes on the line or cleaning up around the yard. I also often Swiss-cheese the job --- working a little of the chore, then taking a break to play on the computer for a few, then going back to tackle the cranky task for a little longer, then checking out a few more humorous/cute Facebook posts, and so on.

Ace Venturi

Da little-known mechanic-sidekick of Jim Carrey's super-sleuth-of-da-domestic-animal-world character; his job is to keep all of Ace's vehicles in perfect running order.
As much damage as Randall "Tex" Cobb's grumpy-ruffian character caused to da Animal Advocate's prized muscle-car, it's likely dat Ace Venturi had several days' worth of "patchin' 'n' paintin'" to perform after da famous daredevil detective got back from his dog-retrieving mission.
