Because I Am In A Mood

True Story

Once upon a time a few years ago, I was writing a book and the main character was named Pigglewiggins. I made up the name. I never finished the story, but by the by, I made a website called Pigglewiggins. Soon the search engines found it, being a unique word and all.

So over time I'd google it up on occassion. Then one day I found out some unscrupulous villian had taken the first line from my webpage about art and poetry and linked it to some diet pill websites with various names. So my boyfriend showed me how to look up the person that owned those sites, and I sent him a nasty letter saying "I'm on to you." You see, he must have had a way to find unique internet words and link his ads to them, knowing when they got hits from a search engine, he'd get free marketing.

But I also went to Live Journal and my webpage and replaced that first sentence with "Never believe any ads for diet pills linked to my name Pigglewiggins. I personally think diet pills are horrible and dangerous and I'd never endorse them."

Well, that man's ads unlinked to my name lickety split. I guess he didn't care for the bad publicity when he googled that word up down the road.

So tonight I thought, what the heck, I'm going to make up some new words and sprinkle them hither and yon, just because I can. Who knows what will come of them.

The Wordsmith

My new words and definitions:

1. Manicondria

What happens to a man after being eaten by an anaconda.

They took him to the Dr. with a serious case of manicondria.

2. Prambler:

A jogger pushing one of those high tech strollers (prams).

When I was in the park yesterday I was run over by a prambler.

3. Porkered

When someone roasts you like a pig.

The night Joe retired, Jay Leno came to the party and porkered him.

4. Whimzulled

When you follow a whim and it gets the better of you.

I invested in caviar flavored ice cream and they whimzulled my money out of me.

5. Caronk

When you get in a crash because your horn wouldn't honk.

They pulled him out of his Rambler after a serious caronk on the expressway.

6. Prackers

Peanut butter filled crackers.

When the kids started to squirm, she stuffed them full of prackers.

7. Centaurella

A female centaur.

When they were sneaking through the marsh, they thought they spotted a centaurella.

8. Crabbified

When your face is frozen in a permanent frown, even when you are happy, because you've spent so many years frowning.

My third grade teacher was scary because she was so crabbified.

9, Smork

The face most people make when they pose for someone who says, "Okay everyone, I'm going to take your photo now."

Selma hated to have her photo taken, so when they said cheese she gave them her biggest smork.

10. Frolled

When your clothes and hair are all mussed up from a romp in the hay.

When her father drove the tractor into the barn, her and the farmhand looked frolled.

Now in a month or two, google up these words and see if they end back here.

indeed we would. you know I used to sneak in the occasional made up word on my debate boards in maybe the middle of a long rant. I had a friendo who was thrilled to find them and show me he caught them. you would be surprised how few people question them if they are scarce and in the middle of other wordz. :p

Last night I registered the new domain name Pigglewiggins.com. That makes me happy.

Over time, I let my domain lapse. Dumb mistake because now some guy in NY owns pigglewiggins.com. Sigh.
