I almost feel embarrased posting this because it’s another silly idea. But I considered, like a fart, it’s better out than in.  
For no apparent reason I Google Imaged ‘Woogle’ and found some interesting items. (Like [this](http://www.kilparrin.sa.edu.au/Services/other/Woogle.jpg), a child’s toy)  
So here’s the object of the ‘game’ (it’s not really a game, there’s no winner, it’s just something to do) -

1. Using [Google Image search](http://images.google.com/imghp?hl=en) find the most interesting image with the previous poster’s word (see step 2). If you find nothing, or nothing interesting then modify the word slightly or try a new word.

2. Modify a noun to make it more childish or cartoonish, making sure it still sounds rougly like a real word (so you might make ‘telephone’ into ‘bellyphone’ or ‘keyboard’ into ‘beeboard’)

3. Follow step 2.

I assume we’re supposed to post a link to the image?

Judging by the time between OP and first (real) reply this thread won’t do well. I’ll give it one try and see what happens.

‘fonkey’ had one interesting pic, but it was a 404 not found so instead there’s [this](http://www.foctor.com/bike/anotherfonkydonkey.jpg)

new word: aberica  
( 🙂 like ‘america’ with a blogged dose)

Maybe it has \<ahem\> _other uses_, but the page found containing the picture said it was a child’s toy.

No toy results came up. Searches for “fonkey toy” only gave me Donkey-on-girl sex pages ( :eek: ), so I’m just going to use Lobsang’s new world, which led to [THIS](http://www.djhobby.com/catalog/images/CEA230522.jpg)

My new word is “Praystation 2”
