Fake Word of the Day XI

Sep 15, 2011 13:30

An occasional series where I take something for which there is no word and invent a word for it.

Poodge - When someone who asks you to guess something is obviously disappointed when you guess correctly.

Aristocom - The kind of joke that only other comedians find funny.

Vagilinte [vaj eh LIN tee] - A female vigilante.

Sickelganger - Someone who seems to have the same health problems you have.

Mistalgia - A feeling of nostalgia for something that didn't happen to you.

Abercrombing - Trying to impress someone who doesn't give a shit, like lying to your dentist.

Ploybay - a recognisable brand-name in a TV show, sufficiently altered to avoid a lawsuit.

Fluttershy - A humorously anti-climactic sneeze.

Phonytail - A fake ponytail, and by extension, any artificial hair girls put on themselves.

Pet Satiety - When you've finally had enough of the endless series of pointless chores that masquerades as a "game" on certain Facebook apps, like Pet Society or Farmville.

Renopause - The gap between the start of a slightly reworked live song and the applause of recognition.

Wine Bluff - Someone who refers to wine in abstract human terms (cheeky, indolent, etc.), but who has no friends.
