Is that the opposite of erotic? Someone who makes mistakes over and over would hardly be a turn on. - petaj, 2007-06-07: 08:21:00

...unless the mistake involved alcohol and leaving really really early before you woke up. Or so my friend says. - jadenguy, 2007-06-07: 09:05:00

Your friend is AKA a "fleesel". - purpleartichokes, 2007-06-07: 12:10:00

COMMENTS:

forgot to weave in "repetitive brain injury", but I'm sure verbotomists are too clever to have arrbeeaye and would have figured it out anyway. - petaj, 2007-06-07: 03:32:00

I somehow assumed the etymology would include something about overeating Arby's and paying for it later. God knows it's impossible not to. - jadenguy, 2007-06-07: 09:11:00

This evokes images of Long John Silver - Jabberwocky, 2007-06-07: 13:37:00

I'm afraid it's baseball season and I only saw "runs batted in". - mplsbohemian, 2007-06-07: 15:18:00

Never heard of Arby's. Sounds like some undesirable franchise we don't need in Australia. - petaj, 2007-06-07: 22:28:00

Etymology: From doh + repeat

Pronunciation: /nŭm'skŭl-i-gən/

Sentence: Darrell was about to take a numbskulligan. Apparently he hadnt been convincing enough on his first try and he thought that by drinking just one more beer- he might just convince one of the fine ladies playing pool to take him home. "Alright, Gals!" Darrell staggered back over to the pool table. "Which one of you fine fillies wants to be my future ex-wife?" Darrell had a long walk home.

Etymology: Blend of "Numbskull" - A stupid person; a nitwit and "Mulligan" - Most simply put, a "do-over."

COMMENTS:

Darrell Numbskulligan-wasn't he related to Patty O'Furniture? - metrohumanx, 2008-07-30: 17:24:00

Numbskulligan has a nice ring to it! - Nosila, 2008-07-30: 20:58:00

Very good! - Mustang, 2008-07-30: 22:14:00

maybe the doobie redoobie explains the forgetfulness - perhaps the smoke wasn't from the office toaster - Jabberwocky, 2007-06-07: 11:36:00

The smell would have been much better. Whatever he was cooking stunk like hell. - purpleartichokes, 2007-06-07: 11:41:00

whenever someone burns toast in our office everyone yells "group stroke" - Jabberwocky, 2007-06-07: 11:55:00
