Woolly-booger

I came across this word and its definition today while browsing the Internet. I found it ironic and interesting due to my recent post on the Isabella Tiger Moth.

Double-Tongued Dictionary definition of 'woolly-booger -

woolly-booger n. (also woolly-bugger) 1. (colloquial) the larval-stage insect known as the woolly worm or woolly bear; a fishing fly that resembles such an insect. 2. (in the American Southwest, slang) an extraordinary example of a thing. 3. (in Oklahoma and Louisiana, slang) provisions intended to be overlooked in legislation.

Who would have thunk?
