Good words, iffy definitions.
More interesting (to me) would be something like:
Bad Bishop - a man in the wrong profession.
Spite Check - a self evaluation of one's bad attitude.
Luft - using a German aircraft to open up the castled king's position.
Underpromotion - umm... let's not go there.
How about?
Duffer:- Irish football player
Bad Bishop:-Only on a Saturday night at the local S&M party
Cheapo:-Any guy from Tallaght with the surname Cheap
Everybody is forgetting the coolest term in chess history:
''A mysterious rook move! ''

I heard the other day:
"A temporary restoration of material parity".
God I love the English Language. Why make sentences simple and boring when you can make them elaborate and beautiful.
Nice words!
Luft is also used in sweden. As in german it means air.
To Evil homer:
Duffer is of course a drinker from Springfield. Homer simpson drinks duff.

Ah yes, the evil Duff corporation!
Hog: Slang term for 'rook'.
Fish: A bad chess player.
Donut: Something I say in live chess because I'm a mod and don't want to break the rules. Also a favourite of Homer.
On a related topic (well not really), would someone care to tell me the pronounciation of J'adoube? (English, not American, if you would.)
Cruel, cruel fate: when I lose a chess game.
Transcendent brilliance: when I win a chess game.
J'adoube = Zha-DOOB
. . . and I think the bad nights were caused from drinking too many cheapos and eating too many skittles.

Zsha-doob, I believe. I will no doubt be corrected.
Swindle - Any good move played against me
Combination - Giving up the queen in the hope that the opponent will start calculating, realise he's winning and faint in shock, allowing a win on time
Kibitz - Hooliganism, chess style
J'adoube - The ultimate escape from the game losing blunder.
I've had my fill of bad nights.
I'm glad you left the K out of that! 
Triangulation:
Making your king dance the Cha Cha.
losing tempo - punching opponent on the nose
k1Ng - confusing cherished number plate with algebraic notation
klingy - reluctance to move pieces away from your king
This is off topic but I did not want to start another forum. I was chatting with ncpharaoh (a member here) and he invited me to play a chess game called fisher random, I told him I would before finding out what it was, can anyone help? Please forgive me I am still learning the chess world, which is considerable more vast than I exspected.
Thanks

Duffer: A slang term for a very poor player. Also called woodpusher, patzer. This one was my favorite.
Spite Check: A check given by a player facing the inevitable checkmate of his own King. A Spite Check does not eliminate the threat of checkmate; it merely delays it for a move or two. Don't even get me started.
