Tripped over my tongue just now and came up with a fun new word!
Flimblab: The seemingly idle patter or “chit chat” a salesman does as he desperately searches for common ground with a potential customer. Also widely open to interpretation as shown in the last example.
(Hey, my name’s Mike! Wives, Amirite?!)
(You know, this truck has a 4.63 rear gear ratio! What about them Cubs?)
(Ma’am, This van has the highest safety rating in the industry…do you think your kids…cough CLIENTS take their safety seriously?)
(Yeah, that Scott, he’s always looking for an angle. He trades on flimblab.")
Do you like to imagine you coin new words, too?
