“Hey guys,” Jimmy says at the party,
” I’m bored. Do you know what we could do?! Oh man. We could place this new and hip game. It’s called Starnwondr. All we need is some water and good cheer will be had by all.”

Danielle - maybe it was because you went first but you mispronounced ‘misprounce’ and correctly pronounced ’skatepark’ thus reversing totally the definition?? ( dehickulate - which you also misspelled!)

Want to have another shot?? :-)

I know - i’m pedantic to annoyance! ;-)

glub

Nice Ed!

And since comments haven’t been closed yet…

“Glub” is the come back phrase thought of about 15 seconds too late thus losing its effectiveness and remaining unsaid. Derived from the words ‘glib’ and ’stumped’.

As Marcela watched Hector walk away with his nose in the air in her confused state the glub “yeah, well your mother wears army boots” made a fleeting stop in her mind, alas it was too late.

prackle

Ohhh. I like Angie’s!

danielle’s hubby: how nice of you to say so. :-) The definition comes from an extreme personal case of glubness.

Have you seen ‘You’ve Got Mail’? The leading female character is glub then learns to be cunning and cutting; but then she regrets it. That is a great movie!

Prackle: Noun: 1. the porous surface of a type of stone that is soft to the touch, but bites into one’s behind fiercely when sat on for longer than 15 minutes. 2. conversation which gives the appearance of kindness, but is cruel at heart.

1. During our morning walk, I found a beautiful rock to rest on. It was nice at first, but the prackle hurt so badly after a time that I could not sit down for half the day!

2. I passed by the ladies clustered around the shrimp bar, and overheard their conversation again. What I had mistaken for small talk was actually nothing more than prackle. I removed myself.
