Make up some cool, witty, new word

Noun. The treacherous mix of toys, clothes, bibs, and food that rapidly accumulate when one has an infant in the house.

New word, made up by Captain Steve, benevolent dictator for life as you can see here:

I mean:

“I love beautiful objects. I love creating them. Negative people upset me.”... it really must be him.

I wanted this to be the opposite of “pronunciation”, but now I think it describes a scenario like this:

An “angel” visits the Virgin, and tells her: “I know I can trust you with an important matter. Here is my story. My uncle, the late Mr. Payne Spencer, was the Undersecretary of foreign matters in Nigeria, working under the corrupt regime. Due to inflated military contracts, he had access to funds floating in the Central Nigeria National Bank amounting to US$2,500,000.00. But tragically, last year he and his wife and 3 children were killed in a plane crash. You have been recommended as a trustworthy party to transfer these funds to, but this has to be done in the utmost secrecy. If you could transfer by wire the sum of $2000 then we can get the process going…”

... is a small, sweet cup of tea made the way older people do in Britain when they want to cheer themselves up.

I want this to be a word so that I can create a new meaning for the word “satisfactory” – i.e. a quiet, charming little tea room.

As one of the cleverest guys I’ve ever worked with said to some of the company directors on his last day:

“Carrot flavoured stick, yum. My favourite!”

A sticarrot is a metaphorical, carrot-flavoured stick.

If something can be demoralising:

adj : destructive of morale and self-reliance [syn: demoralizing, disheartening]

then I don’t see why we can’t have:

Moralising

adj: constructive of morale and self-reliance [syn: moralizing, heartening]

There’s someone you don’t like. They’re holding a party. You decide you want to ruin the party so you hold a rival, hopefully better counterparty at the same time. You invite all the same people.

So a counterparty is a spiteful, anti-party party.

Buggette (French noun)

A small bug.

I’ve been using this term at work much to the amusement of my French boss. Recently he’s started using the word.

Zeitgeist – German, meaning “spirit of the age”

Postgeist is “spirit of a bygone age”.

An example would be Copeland’s Microserfs because it was a very early nineties book.

The opposite of Procrastination, it would mean to jump straight into something with no delay at all. You wouldn’t consider the consequences etc.
