Someone who thinks they can estimate cost or duration of a renovation project but who have zero construction experience and really and truly has no clue what is involved. A Guesstimatrix, always a female, is obviously smarter overall than a Guesstimator. Despite this natural female smartitude, Guesstimatrices (plural) have no business estimating costs or duration of projects.
She’s planning another home reno! And we all know it’ll be 300% over-budget and take months longer than planned…next time that Guesstimatrix needs to hire a real contractor!

Get the guesstimatrix mug.That was one crazy weekend. All that stress made me realize it just ain't worth procrastinating. Phew! I sure learned my stresson.

Get the Stresson mug.A Charfruiterie Board is a vegetarian (and fruitarian) option for those who don’t consume the foods typically on a Charcuterie Board. It’s a fancy way of saying Fruit Platter.
Oh no - I forgot to make something for the pot luck! …Aha! I’ll just buy a Fruit Platter from the grocery store, dump it out onto a wooden board, and stick a bowl of yogurt on it as a dip… I shall announce loudly that I have contributed the Charfruiterie Board for the event. Everyone will be forever in awe of my talents!

Get the DOLAAT mug.A desirable behaviour. Going out of your way to avoid being close to people. In the olden days (prior to the COVID19-era), it would have been seen as rude to cross the street to avoid being close to a person. There was a risk that you’d be perceived as a snob, or as a racist, or intolerant in some way of the person you were avoiding. However, in the COVID19-era and beyond, it is the best thing you can do! And it’s a bonus that no one can accuse you of being rude.
I was on my morning walk to keep me sane during the “self-isolation” period when I saw Chatty Cathy walking towards me. I crossed the street. At first, she looked a bit sad but then I hollered “it’s not you, it’s just that I’m virus dodging!”

Get the Virus Dodging mug.The fragrant force field resulting from someone passing gas. Usually the flatulator (or flatulatrix, if it was a lady) will have already fled the scene. If you arrive immediately after the offense occurred, you might bounce off the invisible dome of stench (you are essentially being repelled by the force field of flatus). Sometimes, it’s hard to know where the borders of the flatus field are, and in these cases it is safe to assume that some time passed between the original offense and your arrival on scene. Most fields of flatus will dissipate within 5 minutes. Some of the most notable ones have been rumoured to last well over an hour...however, no one has actually stuck around long enough to verify this.
Do NOT go in there! I left a field of flatus and I think it’ll last about five-to-ten...
I swear to God - that man created a field of flatus right before he stepped off the elevator...I sure hope no one joins me on this trip and blames me for the smell!

This is different from "diet controlled diabetes" (as this type suggests you make at least a feeble effort to control your diet.)
Diet-inspired diabetics are drawn to each other and often need to pool their resources in later life to pay for wheelchair ramps and prosthetic limbs.
One such club is known as the DOLAAT's ("Dying One Limb At A Time"). Such a popular club that there are chapters of DOLAATs in every nursing home across North America.

Man, those folks are in rough shape but they look so happy eating all those treats. I'm inspired to get diet-inspired diabetes too so I can join the DOLAAT club. I can't wait to wear a too-tight white T-shirt and have wheelchair races with them!
