Or athingumanajig- what a drunk says when he wants to dance.

Proactive. Touch base. Take ownership. Leverage. Incentivize. Add value. Knowledge transfer. Milestone. Out of the loop. Responsibility assignment. Sync up. Team.

Welcome to the absurd world of corporate lingo.

I picked up a nonsense word from someone else. Doomaflinky is a good word for both people and things.

Then there's whozawhatsis for when I can't remember someone's name.

Once in a while I run into a Bleeping Bleepity Bleep Bleep though.

 

[Huckleberry]

pantywaist, milktoast, scuttlebut, dolittle, huckleberry, clingon, googler, bamboozler.
Just whatever comes to mind at the moment and feels right.

 

[wolram]

Nice one Moonbear, Doomaflinky

 

[Huckleberry]

whozawhatsis for when I can't remember someone's name.

I just say 'What's his face?' Never in that person's company though. It could be considered rude.

 

[Evo]

I'm not sure how I'd spell it by I use medoobilah whenever I can't think of the word.

Some favorite words are phlegmwad and snard.

My grandma, (who I've heard is a total redneck) uses "hornswaggle" as cursing something.

I don't know if I spelled it right, but it's pronounced horn-swog-ul

To "hornswoggle" someone is to cheat them, to perpetrate a fraud upon them, to "con" them. See: Bamboozle

 

[Echo 6 Sierra]

On Friends one time I heard the character Phoebe use the words "squinky" and "floopy". No, I'm not a fan.

 

[countryboy]

Gabberflasted=confused
puzzlement=mystery
okeydoke=fine and dandy

 

[JamesU]

[Moonbear]

isn't it flabbergasted?

Not if you're confused. I like gabberflasted!

 

[JamesU]

stop gabberflasting and admit that it's flabbergasted

Hoover Vacuum Cleaners declared long ago that the rotating brush roll on a vac is called the disturbulator.

Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!"

He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought --
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought.

And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.

"And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
He chortled in his joy.

Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

Twas brillig, and the slithy toves

I was wondering what you were on about until I re-read it and noticed 'chortled'. You're right; that is pretty silly.

 

[Ivan Seeking]

MB and I agree that galumphing is a form of locomotion that lands between a trot and a canter. Large, awkward dogs often galumph.

What gobbledygook!

No matter how many times I read jabberwocky, I find it very hard to understand

I used to work with a guy who could best be discribed as a "good ole boy."

He used to say when irritated--"I done retch my point of pisstification."
