Omniscientist: /om nee sy ent ist/ Brenda was an omniscientist when it came to all subjects. At least she thought she was. She could annoy family,friends, co-workers and even complete strangers with her know-it-all-ness. There wasn’t a subject she was not an authority on and even though she could bluff, people really knew she did not know it all nor could she be correct at all times on all matters. When asked if she understood the Big Bang Theory, she told them that it was a sitcom on tv and she could understand it because it was in English! Etymology: Omniscient (infinitely wise)& Scientist (a person with advanced knowledge of one of more sciences)

Villagepeephole: /vill aj peep hole/ In our little town many years ago, no one had a telephone except for the drugstore at the bottom of the street. The pharmacist was next to the butcher’s shop. Long ago, some clever person decided to drill a peephole in the side wall between the two shops. The butcher had a packle of kids and the family lived above the shop. Whenever a call came in for someone up the street, the pharmacist would yell through the hole who the call was for and the butcher would dispatch one of the brood to go get the recipient. This social network system was called the villagepeephole and was used constantly, until the day that phones became more affordable to the town’s people. Eventually the shops were knocked down in the name of progress and to divert the youth of the town, a recreation centre was built and you guessed it, the villagepeephole gave birth to the Y.M.C.A.!”Young man, there’s a place you go…” Etymology: Village (little town) & Peephole (hole cut in something to peek through;spyhole) & Wordplay on Village People Created by: Nosila.

Rationalbatross: /ra shun al bit ross/ When Penelope asked her father, Gordie, for a computer (or anything that cost money), he had his usual rationalbatross excuse ready. On this occasion it was about the fact that when he was young, computers were a science fiction story, not reality. So he had to develop his super brainpower to get through all eight of his years of school. Of course, he then went into his old “I walked through five feet of snow for eight miles without boots or a winter coat, carrying a raw potato for my lunch at school, after I had milked the cows, fed the pigs and chickens and brought in a bucket of snow to melt for water” schtick.
