    I love it. I just sent a copy to my best friend. She talks like that all the time. Makes up her own words and definitions.

    thanks for posting this.

    Here's another variety, new definitions to old words:
    COFFEE (n.) the person upon whom one coughs
    FLABBERGASTED (adj.) appalled over how much weight you have gained
    ABDICATE (v.) to give up all hope of ever having a flat stomach
    WILLY-NILLY (adj.) impotent
    NEGLIGENT (adj.) the condition in which you absentmindedly answer the door in your nightgown
    LYMPH (v.) to walk with a lisp
    GARGOYLE (n.) olive-flavored mouthwash
    FLATULENCE (n.) emergency vehicle that picks you up after you are run over by a steamroller
    BALDERDASH (n) a rapidly receding hairline
    TESTICLE (n.) a humorous quesion on an exam
    RECTITUDE (n.) the formal, dignified bearing adopted by proctologists
    POKEMON (n.) a Rastafarian proctologist
    OYSTER (n.) a person who sprinkles his conversation with Yiddishisms
    CIRCUMVENT (n.) an opening in the front of boxer shorts worn by Jewish men

    OK gals, here's the challenge: We oughta be able to make up more of these on our own.
    Hmmmm ,,,
    HEADLINES (n.) worry wrinkles across ones forehead after reading the news?

    I am adding these to my vocabulary immediately!

    awesome!
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.
