Out Of The Petri Dish...Into the Fire: My New Word

Celabratory Society

Think of this as the most interesting delurking project you'll ever participate in. After giving back to others at the Celebratory Society, I have decided to participate in it myself. You can understand the project in full by clicking here, but in brief, the Celebratory Society is an online festschrift for a blogger--a way for you to tell me what my blog or actions mean to you. But this isn't about me--this is about you too. And I would love it if you returned to your own blog, started your own Celebratory Society post, added it to the main project list, and gave me the opportunity to tell you about...you. Here is my link to the project: Celebratory Society Post

My New Word

We are all familiar with the words/phrases/nonsense words we have to enter to leave comments on many of each others' blogs. I have it set up on mine!

I think I may have found my favorite.

CODPROTS.

Tell me that isn't FANTASTIC! I think it sounds very much like a British curse/insult. And so I shall be incorporating it into my vocabulary. As in:

Codprots! I dropped x all over the floor. Again.
They are such codprots. What were they thinking.
This is total codprots.
Keep your codprots off of me.
Don't be such a codprot!

You get the idea. I haven't figured out how to make it a verb yet, but I know I will at some point :) Yay for new words :)

Ex as verb :-)
Jane said no, but Bill codprotted her until she agreed to do his bidding.
