New Words Pt. 1

Most of you know that I take a lot of liberty in the creation of words to fit my--we'll say, active mind. To officialize them, I am going to post a list, updated in installments based on time of creation. You are to refer to this list! Thanks for understanding. THIS is what I mean when I say I am a wordsmith.

Festitious - A repleacement for Facetious, I believe that spelling is an abomination to phonetics.

Dynamicity - If you are going to measure something on a scale of how dynamic that thing is, there is no descriptive or quantitative noun for such a purpose. Ex. "How dynamic is this on a scale of 1-10? Well, when you did this, the dynamicity rose from about a 6 to an 8."

Spifferous - Most words sound better with a -rous at the end of them. Expect more listings similar to this. Replacement of spiffy.

Firgledee - (Int.) Old word. I need to revive it.

Quelled

How frustrating! I try to spread a bit of happiness in this abysmal world and it gets shoved back in my face! I would like to take this opportunity to respond rhetorically; as Chaucer (Paul Bettany) said: "I will eviscerate you in fiction (blogging, in my case). Every last pimple and every last character flaw."

Funny story--I'm sitting up at Seekers as I do on Monday night. One of my favorite frequenters of the platform, Sam, is playing a particularly delightful song, if I remember properly, in E minor. I glance around the room, spying familiar and unfamiliar faces, smiling at those I make eye-contact with. As most of us are Texan or adjusted to Texan social protocol, this does not seem odd to anyone. My smile grazes over a young lady on a sofa, who is with her Boyfriend, apparently. Next thing I know, I'm being cursed at, threatened, and in a sense, humiliated and violated. Obviously my smile was instantly quelled and I pondered who was really in the wrong. I recalled David and Paul telling me about the coldness of Northern USA social interaction. Really, the most I can say to that is just go back to New York, punk. For your information, he was about half my size, at least two years younger than me (which as mature adults is not a margin at all, but at 19, one should respect their "elders"..at least, I think.)

There we go, eviscerated.

Hooters

So, I'm on my way to work out this evening and, as I do normally, I'm pondering things as I drive and listen to (as it was THEN) U2. I have a passing thought about the eating establishment known as Hooters, for a functional however morally lacking reason. This is well known. Go to Hooters for "hooters." As I thought of this with my mental hand over my eyes (of course) I remembered that not only do owls "hoot" but that the owl is the disputed mascott of Hooters. THIS IS AN OUTRAGE. I thought over and over in my car "THAT POOR, SEVERELY MISUNDERSTOOD OWL."

Then I realized how rediculous my thought patterns were getting as I arrived at the fitness club.
