Creative Thinking !! Have a Laugh! | Arthritis Information

On another thread, some were saying they wanted some fun!!  Below, I have copied and pasted my reply in this thread here, in case it gets buried.  Looking forward to seeing what clever things you can all come up with.  Could be fun!!

My post concerns the fun element that some people feel is missing from the board.   I haven't posted for ages myself, but I do pop in every now and again with my 2 cents worth!! The Board has changed, yes - things do evolve (and devolve - if there is such a word) - but there are still warm, wonderful people on here!!  And no doubt, more to come!!
 
Now, speaking about "devolve", and if there is such a word, I am starting what I hope some of you will find to be fun.   I knew of a young woman in NZ who suffered from MS.  She created what she called a"Fictionary", a little collection of made up (or archaic words), which I found to be very clever.  Now I have a challenge for you all.   Below are a few of her words for starters, my challenge to you is to put those clever brains of yours to work and add to the list.  I'm going to go alphabetically, but that is not a rule!!  LOL
 
AQUADEXTROUS      - Possessing the ability to turn the bathtub tap on and off with your   
                                  toes!
 
BURGARCIDE           - When a hamburger can't take any more torture and hurls itself
                                  through the grill into the coals!
 
CARPERPETUATION - The act, when vacuuming, of running over a string or a piece of lint
                                  at least a dozen times, reaching over and picking it up, examining it,
                                  then putting it back down to give the vacuum cleaner one more
                                  chance!
 
So c'mon, let's see some creative genius at work!
