aw, someone already made "Gluephoria"...why can I never think of something original? It always seems like someone beats me to the punch...I guess I should get up earlier. :D

btw, There's no way to change/retract a word, is there?
Hi warped, Not yet... but soon! ~ James
Seems the early verb catches the worm voting wise, eh?

Woohoo! I made a 100% unique word :D Get in ;)
