New Word Order



I recently stumbled across a list of new words for 2016. The list included:

  •          Niblings – A person’s nieces and nephews.  Wow. This was much needed. I can’t believe we went so long without that word.
  •          Definotly – Definitely not. Nice. I like it.

Here’s some I would like to suggest for this year (Yes. I know it’s early…):

  •          Mojis – When you use the smiley face things in a hand written note as opposed to an email or text
  •          Flavorites – favorite flavors. Yum!
  •          EWOL – When a person does not respond to repeated emails or texts.
  •          Drive-Flu  – When you get your flu shot through a pharmacy drive-thru window.
  •          Clarinut – That clarinetist who bends from side to side just a little too much when she (or he) performs.
  •          Urigate – what your dog does to your back yard (Let them think that they are helping ‘cause it sure beats the indoor alternative)
  •          Onhand – Not an offhand remark, more of a prepared response
  •          Ring Toe – The fourth toe, between the pinky and the middle toe
  •          Mapkin – using the map in your car as a napkin when you eat and drive
  •          McBib – Has McDonald’s invented this yet? Why not?
  •          Cloxting – Usually after a time change, when you try to change the time on your car's clock while driving
Go ahead and use 'em. Don't wait for the official announcement. Let's get 'em out there.
