Filladollphia: noun. Filladollphia is a psychological disorder that manifests itself in
a constant urge to insert things into dolls. People particularly affected by
this disorder are workers in doll factories, who not only develop this disorder
as a result of their job, but also regard it as the social standard due to
constant exposure to such behaviour. A help line is currently being set up in
Tokyo to help filladollphiacs overcome
their unconventionality and its founder Nihonjindes Bakame hopes it might just
be more successful than the American religious clinics founded on the principle
of praying the filladollphiac away.

Filladolphia
Filladolphia: noun. Filladolphia is a phenomenon common among taxidermists that
manifests itself in an obsession with stuffing dolphins. Filladolphiacs often apply for jobs at aquaria and sea-parks with
the hope that by some unfortunate accident, they will be able to put their
training in taxidermy to good use. After several accidents that were shown to
be somewhat advertent following police investigation, it has become common
practice in centres for housing marine wildlife to conduct psychosexual tests
on each employee and applicant for jobs in order to limit the impact of similar
desires.

Filiodelphia
Filiodelphia: noun. Filiodelphia is the metaphorical state of Delphi being one’s child.
The founding citizens of Delphi never called themselves Filiodelphs or Filiodelphiacs,
but that does not prevent imaginative, inspiring, incredibly handsome and
irresistibly attractive blogwriters from making this word up.

Philiodauphia
Philiodauphia: noun. Philiodauphia is when one is loved by a dauphin. Philiodauphiacs tend to be stuck with
the epithet of “lucky bastards,” which anti-royalists use to justify their own
hatred of philiodauphiacs and the
psychological torture they subject them to by calling their mothers hamsters.

Philiodollphia
Philiodollphia: noun. The state of being loved by a doll. Contrary to popular belief, dolls aren’t actually capable of showing emotions, making philiodollphia more common in horror films. My cousin saw Child Play once. I think he was five or six. Since then, he’s always been afraid of dolls. When he was twenty one, my sister and I put a giant Ariel doll on his doorstep, rang the doorbell and hid around the corner. His terrified scream was amazing.

Philiodolphia
Philiodolphia: noun. The state of being loved by a
dolphin. Usually, the subjects of philiodolphia
are dolphins themselves, but some people – particularly sailors – report
cases of being subjected to a very carnal and even violent manifestation of
such love. That is how mermaids are born.

Overcat
Overcat: noun. Whereas an underdog is a competitor with low chances of winning in a competition, an overcat is a competitor who might as well claim the prize because he/she/it will almost certainly never lose. The intermediate version of these two words is the word throughpig: a competitor who has a decent chance of winning but also a decent chance of losing. Changing one's bet from an underdog to a throughpig is the most reliable way to heighten the chances of winning money while keeping a decent rate, whereas betting on the overcat is more like a low-risk investment.

Dogering
Dogering: noun. Dogering is the business of removing food from a site, usually through rapid guzzling, gobbling and gluttony. Whereas catering makes sure that food arrives in a relatively acceptable form, the end product of dogering is almost always a mess and a pile of dog excrement, which explains why most people refuse to pay for this service in the first place and instead profit from the desperateness of job-seeking dogs.

Catpile
Catpile: noun. A catpile, as the name suggests, is a word with very little practical use. Cats are not very social animals, so catpiles only tend to be formed in early infancy or among lions. In zoos, forming catpiles are a good indicator of too little personal space (unless the constituents are lions or cubs) or mass sexual harassment.

Dogastrophe
Dogastrophe: noun. A dogastrophe (not to be confused with a dogasstrophy, a reward for dogs with nice behinds) is a dramatic event with very positive consequences. Dogastrophes tend to occur right after catastrophes in a very relativistic sense, as a turn from the terrible to the not-as-terrible is still a great relief. So-called 'pure dogastrophes,' i.e. dogastrophes that do not directly follow catastrophes, are very rare and many Christians claim that the last one happened around 2000 years ago.
