Let's coin some new words!

I’ll go first:

slobfuscation: What happens when you’re gazing across the room at an attractive person of your preferred gender, and an elderly, overweight, or unkempt person of your non-preferred gender steps into and remains directly in your line of sight, blocking your view.

postus interruptus: When the SDMB is performing flawlessly, with quick response times, right up until the moment you click the “Submit New Thread” or “Submit Reply” button.

Who’s next?

**schaudenthread: **the feeling you get when you post a thread and don’t get many responses, then scroll through the message board and find other threads that have even fewer responses.

A better word for: “unmarried persons (of the opposite sex) sharing living quarters in a romantic relationship”.

Such people are now genearlly referred to as “um”. “This is Peter, my, umm…”

Skeptacynacalism.

The act of being both skeptical and cynacal at the same time.

The sentence,* “I doubt this stupid word will ever catch on.”* is an example of skeptacynacalism.

And its fun to say.
.

Hallamande - The little dance that you do when you meet someone in a hallway, and you keep moving in the same directions to try to get around each other.

Slackus Interruptus - When you desperately need to read the Dope, email a friend, or surf HotOrNot, but your boss is hanging out in your office and you need to pretend to be working.

ambimoustrous - when you can use your preferred pointing device with either hand (I’m ambimoustrous with a mouse, a trackball, and stylus. Go me.)

flatcrete - that damned pavement that makes it sound like you have a flat tire. I swear my dad made this one up, but he denies it.

Slammy - The feeling of raw meat.

Moufache (moo-fash) - The first, paltry growth of facial hair on the upper-lip of a teenager. It’s weak, thin hairs make for an ugly, disconcerting sight, but the wearer is just too darn proud to shave it off.

Liberccusation : The compulsive tendency to blame everything on liberals.

Squeekitty : The irresistible cuteness of kittens.

Patriotically correct Unvulnerable to accusations of Not Loving America enough.

Boy toy?
Honeymuffin?
Housemaid?

In any case, I was under the impression that “boyfriend/girlfriend” was getting the job done.

However, Swedish has a pretty funky Ikea-esque name for it. You could try adopting that.

Accelevator: pushing the elevator call button several times in the hopes that it will come sooner.

Repubgnant: blaming all the worlds problems on Republican policies

Goregasms: the reactions some people have when they listen to the former VP speak.

Barak-tails: drinks served at Obama fundraising parties. Typically over-priced, watered down, not a lot of substance but they are very popular and everyone wants to be seen with one.

Mitt-for-brains: supporters of the former Governor who still believe he has a good chance at winning the nomination.

Dawkinicism: the proselytizing of atheists

centiphelp: subjective unit of measure used to describe a person’s level of bigotry. Scale runs from 0 centiphelps for a person who loves all people equally and doesn’t judge people all the way up to 100 centiphelps = 1 Phelps for a full blown racist, homophobic, sexist idiot. Most people range between 10 to 30 centiphelps for believing in some stereotypes or telling offensive jokes.

Bushwa: statements from Dubya. Oh, rats. It already exists. :smiley:

Actionesia - The act forgetting why you started doing something.

Pamnesia - When making introductions, to suddenly forget the name of the woman you are with. (See also: Tomnesia)

Befiddle - To attempt to fix something by flipping switches and pushing buttons at random.

Constumption - One’s initial reaction to tasting something entirely different than what was expected.

Doucheborg - One who defiantly tries to be different by being just like their peers.

Fasterbation - The act of constantly tweaking a machine or device to squeeze the last ounce of performance out of it, even if it makes absolutely no practical difference.

Inebrihated - The state or quality of being an asshole when drunk.

Implediment 1) any new technology,software or ‘improved’ system for doing things that takes more time to learn than the time it will ever save 2) any modern convenience that is inconvenient.

Those are all gems. Truly. Well, maybe not befiddle.

Anyways, the term I came up with was “dickle”. I can’t exactly remember why I called it that, but I remember the moment and intended usage of it.

There are a few kinds of forks in existence, most of those forks have “tines” or fingers that actually stab the food on the fork. Heh, stab. A “dickle” can only be on a tiny fork meant for crab or lobster, and even then, must be on the outside. This means that any interior tines (even on a lobster or crab fork) can’t be called “dickles”.

The purpose of a “dickle” is similar to that of a can opener. Let’s say that a lobster fork has three tines, the “dickle” would be the only tine between shell and meat, the other two being outside of the shell. It’s usually used like a can opener, in a rocking motion, slowly cutting through the shell.

It’s not hilarious or that unique, but it’s the only I’ve made up recently.

Insuctions - Flat-pack furniture assembly directions that contain no words and confusing visuals that turn your desk into a curio cabinet.

Felimp - The little half-step-stumble you do when you realize you’re about to step on a cat.

Fcukwad - Of urban fashionistas, to deliberately wear articles of clothing with the manufacturer’s tags and labels still attached.

Coiffoil - The single tuft of hair that won’t stay down.

Hambungler - A fast-food employee who always screws up your order.

Slumburble - Incoherent mumbling made while one is asleep.

Whence the titillating phrase, “Open it with your dickle” may chance across the table at Red Lobster one of these days. :smiley:

Verocative. Meaning she is hot.

…your “Mate”. :smiley:

Gekittle, three or more cats with tails, legs, and heads all intertwined in a clump, sleeping.

Those who speak German will understand the inspiration for this one.

Those who are owned by at least three cats should appreciate this one.
