Crapapult: a catapult for launching crap.

LOL, based on the word and the "manhandling the..." I was sure it was going to include some breasts somewhere along the line This works quite good though!

7. PEPPIER (pehp ee ay') n. The waiter at a fancy restaurant

I guess I'll add one here! It's not as good a oblivate though.

[AFriendlyFace]

Here's one that's been a part of my vocabulary for years:

 

"Frien(d)cest"

 

[the "d" is an optional spelling but isn't stressed in pronunciation.]

 

Friencest N. Casual sexual contact with one's friend.* Jerry and Tim's relationship was never the same once they'd committed friencest with each other.

 

*Note that people with F'buddies aren't necessarily committing friencest because the nature of friencest is such that a primary, fairly close platonic relationship must exist between two (or more! ) people before they decide to introduce sex into the mix.

 

**Friencest is also not quite the same thing as two close friends who decide to take their relationship to the next level and thus enter into a serious, long-term relationship. Friencest is done without a strong expectation of a possible romantic relationship.

[BeaStKid]

Hmmm... even though I do not support this frien(d)cest....the word sounds great!!!

[B1ue]

First, the proposal. I propose that we also begin to use NAMES of PEOPLE for ADJECTIVES!

 

I'm suddenly happy that my user name is already an adjective, and my actual name is culturally significant, and can't be tied to just me. Kevin already knows far too much about me for comfort.

Yay I finally got one!

Smiggle -- a hilariously happy smile

 

Smasty -- a nasty smile

 

Smuel -- a cruel smile

 

Smuzzle -- a puzzled smile

 

Smidden -- a hidden smile

 

Smecret -- a secret smile

I think my new one would fit here

 

Bliggle -- a blushful giggle

 

EDIT:

 

Hugneed -- the need to hug/be hugged (it can get pretty bad, hehe)

Per Kevin's suggestion, I am adding lesbianeroticism to the list. As the name suggests, it is eroticism of a lesbian nature.

"lesbianonic" is another I like:

 

Lesbianonic Adj. Of or relating to lesbians or lesbian affairs.

 

 

"After I'd heard all the lesbianonic details of their break up I knew Sue just wasn't good enough for Donna."

 

"When Mary began questioning her sexuality she eagerly sought out all the lesbianonic information she could find."

As usual I am fashionably late to an interesting thread.

 

I tend to call my sister my sibby. More often though I just call her sweetie.

 

I also make up words. For some reason I've always referred to a helicopter as a huhk-a-choo. I have no idea why. Those wheelchair signs, the ones with a sort-of chair set in a circle are called a hoople. I always ask my father when I pick him up for supper to be sure and remember to retrieve his hoople tag from his car so we can park in a handicapped spot. It closer and you don't have to put money in the meter. My psychiatrist is my psydoc. My psychiatric meds are my psymeds. A former childhood shrink was called Dr. Mengele; don't ask! My former primary care doctor will forever be known as Dr. Coldheart. I've got the hots for my new doctor. Too bad he's straight, married and has kids. He's nice enough that he insists upon being called by his first name. Well there I go off-topic again. I'll stop now. It's time for a nap.
