My best guess so far is http://64.233.187.104/search?q=cache:SCT5-s1-EhkJ:www.sal.org.uk/fellows/fellowsarea/archive/obituaries/show.php%3Fid%3D74 . I'm taking a break.
Good work!

I was only trying to be nice.
After all that hard work, you deserved some sort of recognition.

Words which I may have helped to proliferate:

'Swoonworthy' - something which is so woo that it's worthy of swoons
'Transvestomosexual' - those teenage depressed kids who want to be different, but are in fact just the same as everyone else
'Bumsexual' - Something which is not very good

Do you really think this will displace excellent terms like ass bandit or butt pirate?

Of course not. It should only stand by them to make them better!

'Ass-hat' is another good one.

russ watters' word salad (a meaningless string of words; worse than nonsense) and arildno's gurulity and gurulation have me wondering what other jewels PFers can crank out. Share your inventions.

I think I have you all beat. I've invented an entire language to use in a story I'm working on. Your fictional name would be:

Eamara Gioto Kuskadurotkul

The translation isn't exact, though. There is no word for 'rose,' so the last word literally means "flower water."

Does it beat Quenya..:wink:
 
Here's a word I just made up:
teccident (tek-sih-dent) n. an accident that results from someone distracted by technology.

For an example of a teccident waiting to happen, see this thread.
 
cueet, like the outfitters pack I just got. Its pink and purple, making it cute. And it holds a tent{flip flop and its set up} a small table{all rolled up}, a comfy chair, with matching mess kit! Which makes it neet!
cute/neet=cueet! :redface:

I never really liked Quenya as much as Sindarin myself.
 
Chillax= chill + relax. its fun to say. go ahead... try it...there you go...
 
witlessism. Something like a witicism, only different.
