Legumeation: /leg yoom ay shun/ LaSoya was a girl who had reached pea-uberty. When in the local produce store, she loved running her fingers through the barrels of peas, beans, lentils and others dried pods. It was a phenomenom called legumeation, which creates a nitrogen dependency. It caused the manager, Mr.Peabody, agitation and after remonstration, he would have to use fumigation. When he asked her why she did it, she answered simply, “I’m looking for a good Pod-i-ah-trust. Bean there, done that! Etymology: Legume (the seedpod of a leguminous plant (such as peas or beans or lentils)& Elation (a feeling of joy; absence of depression) Created by: Nosila.

Podifeelya: /pod-i-feel-ya/ One of the oddest of behavioral disorders, podifeelya, is becoming more and more of a problem for grocers. Podifeels have the urge or fantasy to fondle legumes and may actually go up to unwatched barrels of the little veggies and thrust their hands in to experience a “rush” or release of tension. Grocery employees who witness this activity should confront the podifeel and demand that they pay for the entire barrel since this is unsanitary and really disgusting. (This unusual behavior should not be confused with arthritipods — old Hippies, Deadheads and Tree huggers who will microwave bags of organic rice or beans for arthritis relief rather than use unholistic medicines.) Etymology: (wordplay on podophilia – foot fetish, one of the paraphilia disorders in which a person has fantasies and attractions to non-sexual parts of the body such as feet or legs) pod: “leg”ume such as peas, beans, etc. + I + feel + ya (you) Created by: mrskellyscl.

Peaphoria: /pÄ“fôrēə/ Nothing is quite so exciting to Naomi as a trip to the wholesale market — all those open bins of dried vegetables. She can plunge elbow-deep into peaphoria.

Etymology: pea (a spherical green seed that is widely eaten as a vegetable) + euphoria (a feeling or state of intense excitement and happiness) Created by: artr.

Lentilmania: /len-tell-maen-ee-ah/ Sally slowly felt the sprout induced lentilmania that she had waited so long for when she plunged her hand into the barrel of beans at Barney’s Legume and dime. Etymology: lentil, mania Created by: mweinmann.
