sabrotage

The enactment of sabering (removing a cork from a bottle of champagne) using a saber or champagne sword is called sabrage. If the champagne bottle is broken, shatters, or explodes during this process, it can be said that it has run afoul of sabrotage. This is a portmanteau of the words sabotage and sabrage.

So while you sit back and your wondering why,
I got these shards of glass stuck in my eyes, “Surprise!”
Oh my god, it's a bloody mirage,
I'm tellin' y'all, it's sabrotage!

querulant

In the legal profession and courts, a querulant is a person who obsessively feels wronged, particularly about minor causes of action. Specifically, the term is used for those who repeatedly petition authorities or pursue legal actions based on manifestly unfounded grounds. These applications (usually) include complaints about petty offenses. Querulant behavior is to be distinguished from either the obsessive pursuit of justice regarding major injustices, or the proportionate, reasonable, pursuit of justice regarding minor grievances.

“A man may choose a profession in which he can engage with individuals with related inclination; this is the case of a psychiatrist with paranoid schizoform inclinations, or a lawyer with querulant inclinations and an addiction to litigation.”

wikignome

A WikiGnomeis a wiki user who makes useful incremental edits without clamouring for attention. WikiGnomes work behind the scenes of a wiki, tying up little loose ends and making things run more smoothly. Examples of WikiGnome-like behavior include fixing typos, correcting poor grammar, creating redirects, adding categories, and repairing broken links. Typical behaviors are ticking the "This is a minor edit" box before saving any edit, and not providing an edit summary. The WikiGnome is the original example of WikiFauna, having originated in the first wiki WikiWikiWeb. WikiGnomes are also known as WikiGardeners. WikiGnomes have a humble and very unassuming nature, yet Wikipedians should know that they still need to be told that their work is valued from time to time. If WikiGnomes don't occasionally feel the love from the people whom their work has helped, they might sneak into the kitchens of such users at night and sit on their dairy products. Their needs are modest in this regard, however, and it only takes a brief word to them once in a while to avert such an unfortunate event.

WikiGnomes love to work in the shadows making what are called minor edits in various nooks and corners of Wikipedia. Look at recent changes and you may even spot one at work.

WikiGnomes who are feeling familial or desirous of a grander sense of purpose often adopt a typo, gaining fulfillment by raising themselves into existence on the article namespace. Of course, editors are encouraged to garner up some courage and come into the light of day as a gesture of open friendliness and make their edits in a straightforward manner without being afraid of what others think.

droste effect

The droste effect is the effect of a picture recursively appearing within itself, in a place where a similar picture would realistically be expected to appear. And while the appearance may be recursive, the smaller version contains an even smaller version of the picture, and so on. Only in theory could this go on forever, as fractals can sometimes do; practically, it continues only as long as the resolution of the picture allows, which is relatively short, since each iteration geometrically reduces the picture's size.

This sentence says, "This sentence says, "This sentence says, "This sentence says, "..."""" - (example of the droste effect )

spin the cousin

Spin the Cousin is a game that is played at family reunions involving red necks, hill billies, supreme white trash, and other like minded individuals. Using a swivel chair, a cousin is spun around by a close relative. When the chair stops spinning, the two cousins who end up facing one another, can then start to kiss, neck, make out, and do whatever else, that comes to mind.

Jimbo said, “It was weird going to my family reunion.” Brandon replied by saying, “Why?, was it the fact that everyone over there looked like they had Down Syndrome?” “No.”, Jimbo said. “It’s because we all got drunk and ended up playing Spin the Cousin.”

ichthyoallyeinotoxism

Ichthyoallyeinotoxism, or hallucinogenic fish inebriation, comes from eating certain species of fish found in several parts of the tropics, the effects of which are reputed to be similar in some aspects to LSD.

In 2006, two men who ate fish, apparently the Sarpa salpa caught in the Mediterranean were affected by ichthyoallyeinotoxism and experienced hallucinations lasting for several days.
