2. Floop
I use that word everyday in several grammatical variations.

"Honey let's just floop-out on the couch tonight..."

"I dunno we could stay home and be floops..."

"don't go all floopy on me"

39. When something is in good shape
I like to say "It's quite combobulated".

Makes people wonder what you've been up to.

10. Neo-clone
"Neo-clones" are ditto-head neo-cons. All chanting the same current Republican mantra.

"Osaddama" is a step along the way of the Bush administration morphing Osama into Saddam when going after their terrorists.

Saddam, who's sane? (Sound it out) How the sheeple are hearing the name of the deposed or is that "disposed" Iraqi leader.

15. Goobersmooch, Gagacious and Kerfluffle
Edited on Thu Jan-15-04 11:27 PM by SOteric
Goobersmooch, for those who smooch goobers. Gagacious, for that which is truly gag-worthy. And Kerfluffle, for a mild form of a donnybrook.

22. Huge-ongous
My best friend uses that one instead of huge or humongous. If something is really really big...it's huge-ongous.

I also like flutterpated, bloviate, abso-fucking-lutely, and flutterby (instead of butterfly). :-)

24. Ganjaganda
There is propaganda, but the lies concerning miracle plant are so blatant and so unwaivering and have lasted so long, they take lies, bull*hit, and obfuscation to a new level. Thus we have ganjaganda thrust upon us with our own taxpayer dollars.

30. Love-abye
You know, the sweet song you sing to get a baby to sleep. It is what my daughter called it when she was very small. My mom was over one day and the tot said something about a 'love-abye'. I corrected her and said "it's lullabye". My mom corrected me: "No. I think she has it right."

36. "Embiggens" is a perfectly cromulent word.
I can't find "kerfuffled" in my dictionary. Does it count?

I'll bet the spell check loves this thread. Hee hee. :)

37. A couple here:
Assholery and red-ass.

For example:
"wankerbush and the dicky in the bunker, were up to all sorts of assholery today."

"wankerbush gives me the red-ass."
