Neo-Wordism, Neo-Poetry and What Not to Do

August 13, 2020

Daisybrain is where the world shops for new words and better definitions of existing words. Welcome.

Propose: What a professional model does

“Massage therapist” is too long. From now on, someone who massages is a Massagynist

Friendsy- A friend who’s always in a frenzy

Trainsport – to transport by train

Chocolate mouse: a small chocolate mousse

To simplify things, mittens are now called “hand socks.”

If you must ache, you can try a mustache. if not, try a mustnotache.

I would expect a pilot to be planespoken.

To simplify things, socks are now called “foot mittens.”

Underwhere: Lost underwear

Taciturd: a quiet poop

Lookout! Its the Po-Poems!

Happiness and Love

In between death and destruction are happiness and love

I celebrate today I celebrate this day

Looping

We have been looping through the last three months

Over and over and over

Memories from before then were implanted

False history

We are lab rats running the same course over & over

Results indicate that we never stop making the same mistakes

I guess we are pre-programmed to fail 

Stop Doing the Following:

Saying “the new normal.”

Liking and retweeting anything that celebrities post, especially if it’s “My dog is getting petted,” or “I sometimes eat ice cream.” If you truly love your celebrity, stop encouraging them! Their egos will explode! “I see a cloud” does not need 4,000 retweets in an hour.

Hitting like on a selfie, ever, even to pretend that you think someone is good looking.

Telling some beautiful person who post a sexy picture that they are beautiful. It is not revelatory information to them, and it will not compel them to have sex with you.

Starting a broadcast with, “In these uncertain times….”

And don’t ever, ever start a video with, “Hey guys!”

Brand New Words!

fruity jam

The following words did not exist until I made them up. You’re welcome!

  1. Flambertoast (n): Toast spread generously with flamberjam
  2. Flamberjam (n): A sweet spread made of crushed flamberberries
  3. Flamberberry (n): The fruit of the flamberbush
  4. Flamberbush (n): The deciduous plant that produces the edible, and slightly radioactive, flamberberry

OK, one thing kind of led to another there. Breaking free of that loop. Here are some more practical new words:

I Kan’t SEE a Thing

July 23, 2017

Word

Resently, the SEE key on my MakBook stopped working. This is annoying, but it kould have been worse. As you kan see, a ‘k’ or an ‘s’ is easily substituted, and for more formal kommuniation, I have taken to kopying and pasting the letter SEE. This takes up a bit of time, sine I kan’t just hit Kommand-SEE to kopy.

Here are some disjointed word thoughts for you to ponder… or not.


A Passel of Google Virgins

December 8, 2012

Passel: a large group of people or things of indeterminate number

Google Virgins: phrases that do not yet appear anywhere on the world wide web, according to Google (sorry, vast majority of people who found this post by typing in the word “virgin”)

Wordelicacies

July 4, 2012

Word needed! A metal container is a can and a glass container is a jar. But we have no word (that I know of) for a plastic container. I suggest plidge, because it rhymes with “fridge,” and thus would be a boon to the both the poetry and music industries.

I Can’t Believe They’re Not Words!

April 1, 2012

Ballcock

Miscredit:

How is it possible that “miscredit” is not a word? If someone is incorrectly credited with something, we should be able to say that she is miscredited. For example, Thomas Crapper is commonly miscredited with the invention of the modern toilet, and thus the word “crap” derives from Mr. Crapper’s name. In fact, the word crap pre-dates Mr. Crapper; it is of Middle English origin. Mr. Crapper did, however, advance flush toilets quite a bit with his invention of (and if any of my middle school students have stumbled upon my blog I’ll never hear the end of it) the ballcock, which is still in use in today’s toilets.

Random Questions & Brand New Words

February 22, 2012

from Poquoson Veterinary Clinic

Is anyone breeding dogs for longevity? They’re bred for every other conceivable trait, why not freeze some sperm & eggs and inseminate with the ones from dogs who live the longest?

Be the First to Use these Fresh, New Words!

September 23, 2011

Here are some new words. Many of them come from my 11 and 13 year old children:

A new term of endearment for you to use: Dear + Darling = Dearling

Funcle: a fun uncle (not to be confused with funkle, a funky uncle)

Recyclopedia: an encyclopedia of reused words (or, as my daughter says, an encyclopedia of homophones)

Docktour: a tour of a dock, of course. I guess a Doctour would be a tour of a hospital staff

Insanitize: To make insanely clean
