sniglets

why not? just don;t cheat and look them up online. originals prefered, out of memory is ok......

if you;re too young to remember, or if this didnt make it across the oceans:

SNIGLET (snig' lit) n. Any word that doesn't appear in the dictionary, but should.
-by Rich Hall & Friends

the place that one sock from each load of laundry goes is called the hosezone.

the yellow orange debris and grease that is left on your fingers after eating cheetos is called cheetle.

those were from rich hall's first book.

here's one my uncle came up with in the 50's.....he had no idea it was a sniglet at the time, and if he had been paying attention, he could have gotten on saturdaynightlive, too. too bad, Biff. Hindsight is 20/20.


Flarm: the wobbly mass of jiggling arm fat common amongst cafeteria ladies everywhere. Extreme cases are bordered by an elbow dimple.

Here's an original (I think) from one of my friends.

Sitting on the can after a big meal, all happy, then you look to your right, and...

Jujyvision: Trying to determine the color and flavor of Jujy Fruits by holding them up in the movie theater during a daylight scene. (The purpose of this is to be able to avoid/discard the black ones ... which some of you are probably too young to remember, since Jujy Fruits are now just fruitflavored. They took the licorice ones out, perhaps in response to the cries of movie theater owners who were tired of scraping up the piles of black jujy fruits that would gather at the bottom of the theater near the screen.)
