2008 Wordlist

word feed | comment feed | cloud | sort:  alpha / order added
Hopefully, I'll be using this site for more than one year. It will be fun then to look back and see what new words I found worthy of notice in any given year.

All words spotted in 2008 will be dumped here. Some of them will be "respectable" words, some of unknown or dubious origin, some – clearly madeupical :)

I want to make a smart comment about your use of the word mouthfeel in a sentence about nipples, but I think what's said has been said.

about 1 year ago gangerh said:

A glossary of nipples, yes. Well, it's currently topical and has good mouthfeel.

about 1 year ago MiaLuthien said:

You think "a group of nipples" should have a glossary as its collective noun? :P Well, I might add it in that case!

A glossary of nipples?

I'm ashamed to admit I could only use about a third of them right. There are so many of them! And now that I've done cross-referencing them, my mind is completely overstuffed and on the verge of imploding in on itself.

I highly approve of all the rhetoric terms! (Rhetoric is an idle pursuit of mine.)

over 2 years ago chained_bear said:

Yes, stpeter definitely takes the lamington.

Bilby... there's only ONE movie. Dur! I've seen it only about 35 times, and long ago made a Scriptie list for it. *Then* I read all the books and found even more coolness. (See suave serpens for reasons.)

over 2 years ago MiaLuthien said:

Somehow, ZOMG! seems appropriate, Bilby :) I'll never surpass it.

over 2 years ago bilby said:

Mia, take a bow before stpeter. I haven't come across anything bigger, heaven forbid!

over 2 years ago MiaLuthien said:

Ahaha, chained_bear beats me by far!

over 2 years ago MiaLuthien said:

I see you've been talking here in my absence :) Well, I don't think I should worry, seeing as I'm planning an extended leave from my usual haunts on the internets starting the end of July. As to my next year's list, it will be organized something like this – 2009 List numba 1, 2009 List numba 2, etc., etc.

over 2 years ago bilby said:

Just watch the movies and delete the list, c_b, easy.

over 2 years ago chained_bear said:

Yup. Just like I found out on this list.

over 2 years ago sionnach said:

Yes, but when a list starts to get up to the thousand mark adding new words to it can be a


very


slow


process


indeed.

I wish I'd organized my conversations list this way. Very smart.
