Even *more* fun with word validation!
Part 3 of an occasional series, which I publish whenever I've collected enough new words. And just for fun, I've tried to personalize the definitions a little bit (of course, any similarity to persons real or imagined is just coincidence...) ;-)
Submissions are always welcome!
(Check out parts one and two if you are so inclined.)
- tvilr / acronym -- television in lieu of radio
"Honey, did you pack the battery-operated radio for our trip?" Mignon asked her husband as they were packing for their camping trip. "Naw," Jim replied, "Packed the little 12" portable TV instead; I figured we'd go TVILR this trip."
- gynnvzoo / noun -- new kids' show on public television
"Look, Mama!" Tacy cried, "That's a double-whiskered albino tipped ferret!" "How do you know that?" Julie asked, impressed at her daughter's sudden knowledge of exotic animals. "That was the animal of the week yesterday on Gynnvzoo! And guess what, their poop is green!"
- eniessla / proper noun -- the next popular name for girls
In anticipation of Caitlin's playdate with some new girls from day care, Jamie set out some freshly baked chocolate chip cookies. "Yay!" cried Caitlin, "Eniessla and Nevaeh love cookies. With chocolate milk -- shaken, not stirred."
- ophyti / proper noun -- Eniessla's sister
"How was your playdate, Eniessla?" her mom asked when she picked her daughter up from the BlondeMom household. "Good," sighed Eniessla, "although I'd rather have Amelia as a sister than Ophyti. She's cuter and she doesn't bite as much."
- wikrz / noun -- employees of Wikipedia
Dean frowned as he perused the morning paper. "Hey, Amy," he called out, "did you see that the wikrz are threatening to strike? Apparently Wikipedia's game room needs an upgrade -- the air hockey set is broken, Ms. PacMan keeps eating quarters, and the foosball table is missing a goalie."
- npepaiu / noun -- type of food served at a Hawaiian luau
"Aloha!" called Teebs as she arrived at the party. "I've brought some npepaiu to share." "Throw it on the spit next to the pig," replied Elizabeth, "and grab one of those virgin Mai Tais!"
smutdunm / noun -- filtering software for the web
Just before she turned over the computer to her young niece, Aunt Jennie turned on the smutdunm program so that Sarah could not look for articles on water buffalo mating or search for the location of liquor stores within the tri-state area.

Wow! That's very creative. My brain can't think this early in the morning. Will ck bk if I have anything to add.

OMG this is cracking me up! Someone really ought to give you a book deal like Rich Hall got for "Sniglets".
And thanks for putting me next to a pig roasting on a spit. Really, that's awesome.

Genius! I missed the first two, but I've gone back to read them now. You're the ultrwne of bloggers.

Damn my boring family and their boring use of the English language! I'd love to add some to these.

Nancy, you are hilarious. And clever. Love it.

MMMM Virgin Mai Tai.... I guess that would just be fruit juice? I guess I'm going to have to familiarize myself with the various non alcoholic drinks, although, I don't really see the point, kind of like drinking decaf coffee :o)
My favorite from this batch is wikrz.

You are so clever. My favourite is "wikrz".

Does the hilarity ever end? The first WV post is what hooked me on M-M-M. *sigh* Can't say I'm sorry, either.

Okay, I am laughing my ass off, not to mentioned flattered that you included Tacy and me in one of your definitions. Best edition yet, Nancy!

Yep, putting the smackdown on smut since 2002.

This is genius Nancy! It's sniglets for the blogging generation!
Posted by: Mom101 | August 25, 2006 at 05:54 PM
Oh, you are clever. I thought Gynnzoo could also be a new "Get to know your vagina" show
Posted by: Dawn | August 25, 2006 at 06:24 PM
LOL. I'm going to link this later this week. Classic.
