I saw this list of words, that aren't actually words. The author says they are words that should exist but don't. They are pretty funny and true so I though I would share a few with you.
- FEARRORS - dreaded dressing room mirrors that exacerbate every flaw on your body
- MAPQUESTIONABLE - word describing the directions provided by MapQuest that somehow cause you to drive in an enormous figure eight
- CARPERPETUATION - The act, when vacuuming, of running over a string or a piece of lint at least a dozen times, reaching over and picking it up, examining it, then putting it back down to give the vacuum one more chance
- YELLULAR - the loudness adopted in response to a bad cell phone connection in the misguided hope that talking louder will improve it
- TELECRASTINATION - The act of always letting the phone ring at least twice before you pick it up, even when you're only six inches away
- PHONESIA - The affliction of dialing a phone number and forgetting whom you were calling just as they answer
- FRUST - The small line of debris that refuses to be swept onto the dust pan and keeps backing a person across the room until he finally decides to give up and sweep it under the rug
Mari,
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed the list. I certainly agree with the last one. LOL There always seems to be that little bit of frust left no matter how hard you try to pick it up.
Hope you have a great week, my friend.
Blessings,
Mary
Oh yeah, I have experienced all of these, to funny!!
ReplyDeleteThose are all so funny! Thanks, Mari, for giving us some smiles tonight!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great list.
ReplyDeleteI almost always let the phone ring twice- who knew it had a name!
Hilarious!! These are great! Now you got me thinking of other words I could create!
ReplyDeleteMy favorites are carperpetuation and frust, and oddly enough are somewhat related to each other. Fearrors I totally understand and is a word I could come to hate, kind of like the words run or jog.
ReplyDeleteThat was fun. Thanks for sharing them.
this was a riot!! and the one that caught my eye the most...the fearrors. hmm, seen a bunch of those in my time.
ReplyDeleteI was laughing aloud for "Frust, and CARPERPETUATION". And yes I've experienced them all! haha
ReplyDeleteROFLOL- I suffer from CARPERPETUATION!
ReplyDeleteYep, I've experienced about every one! Too Funny!
ReplyDeleteI thought those were real words - ;)! Too funny, I've experienced every one of them!
ReplyDeleteThey should also add "flabbage" which is what hangs off my arms and looks totally unattractive in sleeveless tops!
Well darn Mari, you got me, I could swear you're describing me in the CARPERPETUATION LOL
ReplyDeleteOK, I am dying laughing at "YELLULAR"! hahahahaha I'm so going to use that on a regular basis now. These were hilarious! Even more funny than vomitrocious! hahaha
ReplyDelete~melody~
yep...been there done those!!! funny stuff.
ReplyDeleteHello Mari, Thanks for stopping by my blog. I love yours! Great wacky words.
ReplyDeleteYes, Some are pretty familiar.....k
ReplyDeleteThose are hysterical - I've done them all. My favorite was the carpet one - give that vacuum one more chance! I was laughing hard!
ReplyDeleteHilarious! I can relate to them all...
