Remember those?
Now that bloggers abound there be no dearth of new and improved ways of putting a name to something that weren't named before. Of course, finding the the appropriate nonclementure for something often be probematic. Serena Joy (who me believes be both in tune with her name and occasionally at odds with it) over at Parenthetically Speaking does her thang with twisted linguistics and eventhough Me ain't never contributed to them, Me do get a chuckle or two from what she be coming up with.
Me, on the other hand looks for strange happenings, situations or certain types of people who just mystify me.
Words? Me got words.
There are the morons who can't walk down the street, ride bicycles or drive cars without the added distraction of texting via cell-phone. Me calls them "Thumbspags"
Me got folks who cain't drive fer shit (ok, ok. Me knows me lives in Japan) and do utterly stupid things when driving. They be labled "Sposies" Derived from the acronym SPOS- Stupid Piece Of Shit.
There be times when yer patience be at an end cuz some dumb excuse for a human just can't get their brain in gear and do something right. When me be afflicted by such a situation Me just takes a "Stompacetic"
There be good things that get named too. Like when you go through the day and everything just happens to work out right. Then Me be calling those moments "weejacks", cause me gets slightly jacked up when life smiles at me.

Bang yer head on something (somethin Me do everyday here in Lilliput)- Nog-thwackin.

I don't name things - whatsit, dohickey and thingamajig pretty much have it covered.
But people get nicknames. People I really like - they get nicknames. People I want to dismiss also get nicknames. Some ex-boyfriends: cricket boy, beach boy, the magician, the gardener.
I guess I just can't be arsed to name most things. I do like some UK expressions that I've managed to pickup - wanker, chav, pikey and twat. Twat is not quite as bad as it is in America.
Me prefers a shotgun to words, when it comes to Sposies.

I'm bad about nicknaming people - Dog Eye, Spaz, Weasle, Corn Dog, Watcha-Gonna-Do, Cat Daddy, Prostituto, Ha Ha, June Bug. One day this guy had a heart attack at work and when the ambulance came I had called him Dog Eye so much, they had forgotten his real name. They had to call his contract house and tell them Dog Eye went off in an ambulance.
I have an awful habit of naming inanimate objects a lot and if I need a word in conversation and can't grab something appropropriate from brainspace - I'll just make one up and toss it in. Friends tease that I should have an encyclopedia of Jean...
How about:
HyJean - the act of greeting Jean.
JeannieOlogy - to learn more about Jean.
ConJeannieAlity - to be as ice as Jean.
JeanIus - to be as smart as Jean.
See? I got loads!!! Oh but I adore yours, I read'em aloud to my male beast before he went off to work and he left with a smile and a whoosh!
I hope your day goes well luv ♥
