New words
Here are a few of Webster's new words, at least the notable ones:
bikini wax (noun) 1985 : a procedure for removing pubic hair from the skin near the edge of the bottom half of a bikini by applying hot wax, covering the wax with a cloth to which the wax and hair adhere, and then peeling it off quickly
brain freeze (noun) 1991 : a sudden shooting pain in the head caused by ingesting very cold food (as ice cream) or drink
chick flick (noun) 1988 : a motion picture intended to appeal esp. to women
Bikini wax? Apparently this used to be a taboo topic. I had a friend (female; scientist, Scottish) who offered to wax my ass (between the cheeks; violently; for free) as she did my friend's, Joe. She offered this in the presence of my girlfriend and tried to get my girlfriend to go with her to the drug store to buy the product. She was on a reverse Rhodes scholarship and would cry very easily, not because she was upset, but because she slept only 4 hours a night, and was basically always on the verge of a breakdown. She did not wax it.
Brain freeze? Duh.
Chick flick? I wish they just said: "See any shitty John Cusack movie."
I have a recommendation for the fellows and fellas at Webster: Slayage. As in, mass casualties of vamps. Also, vamps, as in, vampires.
