Swans TV Inventing New Words

[Big Al]

Summated wasn't corrected by my iPhone so it's most definitely a worm.

[Go Swannies]

A friend was recently discussing what grains could be noodlised? Now there's a word that needs to be used, just because it's so much fun to say.

[Yuri H]

Although if somebody sumeriates, they're building a new civilisation in Mesopotamia.

This thread reminds of one of my favourite emails which involves words that are difficult to say whilst drunk.


Things that are difficult to say when drunk.
1 - Innovative
2 - Preliminary
3 - Proliferation
4 - Cinnamon

Things that are very difficult to say when drunk.
1 - Specificity
2 - British constitution
3 - Passive-aggressive disorder
4 - Transubstantiate

Things which are impossible to say when drunk:
1 - Thanks for the offer, but I don't want to sleep with you.
2 - Nope, no more booze for me.
3 - No kebab for me, thank you.
4 - Sorry, but you're not really my type.
5 - Look mate, I've told you, I'm not interested in a fight.
6 - No way, I couldn't, nobody wants to hear me sing.
7 - Thanks for asking, but I don't want to dance. I have no
co-ordination and hate to make a fool of myself.
8 - Where is the nearest public lavatory? I absolutely refuse to pee
in the street.
9 -I must be going now as I have work in the morning.

Geez, Al I need to visit your pub. I can find people to talk about the proliferation of cinnamon but I've never found anyone to discuss the transubstantiation of passive-aggressive disorder revealed, with some specificity, by the British constitution - and it's one of my favourite topics. Perhaps that's why I've never needed to deliver 1, 2, 4, 6 and 7 from Group 3 but I get a chance to say 5 all the time, drunk and sober.

[SwansFan1972]

What about my personal favourites. Everythink & Somethink

My fave is blameshifting. Goes on all the time.

Particularly sinister is pre-emptive blameshifting ... nothing has happened yet, but the blameshifter makes it quite clear the idea for whatever it is came from somewhere else - just in case!

Very much slow news days this week hey ....

[Dosser]

My pet hate used to be the commentators describing a 'transference' of play instead of 'transferral' and I used to roll my eyes and bemoan the education of the average football commentator. Until I looked it up and discovered that it was actually a word and that it probably described the passage of play better.

Boy, did I feel goosified.

Gold - love it! Am heading to Queenstown for skiing (and apres) next week. Ok - more likely apres (and skiing) - this list will be very useful!

Many are the times, waiting on the platform, I wish for a train's substantiation.

Pfft - cininamon is as easy to say as ciminanon or mincinamon or even nimincioman

Would that be wile you are also trying to transcend dental medication?

[The Big Cat]

Peter Daicos when describing how the Hawks would have more to play for than the Lions down in Tassie a few week ago. "Vos will have a lot of trouble incentivising the team". Is "motivating" a simpler word?

[Big Al]

While were on the subject of language and words I though I'd post these handy hints for our gentlemen posters on what the ladies in
your life really mean by the following.

1.) Fine : This is the word women use to end an argument when they are
right and you need to shut up.

2.) Five Minutes : If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour.
Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more
minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

3.) Nothing : This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and
you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end
in fine.

4.) Go Ahead : This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!

5.) Loud Sigh : This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement
often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot
and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you
about nothing. (Refer back to #3 for the meaning of nothing.)

6.) That's Okay : This is one of the most dangerous statements a women can
make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before
deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.

7.) Thanks : A woman is thanking you, do not question, or Faint. Just say
you're welcome.

8.) Whatever : Is a women's way of saying @@@@ YOU!

9.) Don't worry about it, I got it : Another dangerous statement, meaning
this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is
now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking "What's
wrong?" For the woman's response refer to #3.

[Bas]

Big Al, I finally get the picture - women are dangerous!! They trick us poor men with their secret language.

[BSA5]

Summated is definitely a word, although its usage in that context is perhaps a little odd.
