Verbotoweek: Jabberwocky’s Garden of Verbal Delights

Jabberwocky verbgabbles her way to this week’s Cup

Another strong week for Jabberwocky who looked for paradrice in a Bulk Barn Store, commited adultergate which caused her friends to emobilize her. With a possible case of woebegonorrhea she didn’t want to get invoved in another threedundancy situation. Congratulations Jabberwocky!!!

Verbotoweek In Review:
It never ceases to wonderstruck me the daily creativity of our Verbotomists. Monday’s euphoria indry beans lead to the new states of lentitillation, paradrice and ecstapea. Tuesday, Edna Sky (ask deny) and her age old, old age, young age problem caused fibbage, misagery and embellage when she hyperbolages and manipulages. Wednesday’s returned emails summed up my feelings of being emailaise, emobilized and sendsitive when the damn thing is egloomeranged, enailed, or ebounded. Thursday was a fifth-wheel situation four three two one about and they did with feelings of threedundancy, matecrashering and threesquirming. Emoyions ran high Friday with the killherinstinct of some players to trampire, janger and emoflux before they confloved and woebegonorrhea.

petaj – 2007-06-01: 08:44:00
It’s a cruel world.

purpleartichokes – 2007-06-01: 09:11:00
He never should have hooked up with SyPhillis.

petaj – 2007-06-01: 09:42:00
Nor Clay Middea, H. Ivy and Donna Vanosis

Jabberwocky – 2007-06-01: 12:34:00
I think VD (Verbotomy Dialogue) is very contagious

rikboyee – 2007-06-01: 18:48:00
dinner was going well, the potatoes were cooked to perfection.. the meat was tender and the gravy she’d made was delicious.. but the evening went downhill after he tasted Her Peas

petaj – 2007-06-01: 21:50:00
No doubt someone had been engaging in riceque behaviour and enjoying some lentitillation with the peas.

And Clayton inspired a garden of words

Dysphuriation

Created by: Clayton

Pronunciation: dis-FYOOR-ee-EY-shuhn

Sentence: Gerald could not contain his dysphuriation, which was clearly harder on him than either Janet or Carl, the landscaper.

Etymology: dysphoria + infuriation

Points: 17

Comments: Dysphuriation

purpleartichokes – 2007-06-01: 08:55:00
Janet was into whoreticulture.

petaj – 2007-06-01: 09:03:00
Gerald was a mite angry, but Carl probably has a spray for that. Janet declared she was just being environmentally friendly.

purpleartichokes – 2007-06-01: 09:19:00
Carl was a seedy character, having had affairs with Rose, Daisy, and Lily as well.

Jabberwocky – 2007-06-01: 12:30:00
sounds like a thHorny problem

Clayton – 2007-06-01: 13:54:00
Yes, but Gerald rose to the occasion.

Clayton – 2007-06-01: 14:05:00
Damn, “rose” had already been used. I’ll try again. It wasn’t the first time Janet had been deflowered. Gerald fell into a vegetative state, preventing him from getting to the root of the problem. Tree times was fir too many.

Jabberwocky – 2007-06-01: 15:35:00
Perhaps Janet felt that Gerald had been spending too much thyme with Rosemary and as he hadn’t been wearing his foxglove he had developed a problem with his peonies

Clayton – 2007-06-01: 18:35:00
Whereas Janet’s gardenia belt left her feverbush exposed, making Carl’s horse cane extremely gladiola, until his stamen peeked out from under his monkshood and he began pollen on his periwinkle. Fertilization was fine, but there was no possumhaw that he could marigold that witch-hazel and become a poppie, carting the orchids around to daisy care. Some called him a pansy, but many problems stemmed from his disinterest in cultivating a family and branching out. He wished everyone would just leaf him alone so he could smoke weed and listen to the Sex Pistils. Maple it was for the best. He’d rather bee with Jasmine, to chestnut on her pod and turn out the nightshade.

Jabberwocky – 2007-06-01: 20:10:00
too funny – I’m splitpeaing myself with laughter!!

petaj – 2007-06-02: 23:34:00
Clayton, you sure have some stamena for pROSE. Freesia jolly good fellow, and sow say all of us.

Verbotoweek: May I have a word with you?

Stevenson0 takes the top word and the Cup

Stevenson0 took the top poll position this week with an extremely set of strong verboticisms. We can only hope that these brilliant words reflect his creative ingenuity, rather than his own personal circumstances. Because, if he suffers from constant ruminesia and the occasional bout of dentritis, he is bound to lieandeny any acclaim with a stream of fiduddles. But let’s not get too actstatic, because there is no doubt that he will be thrilled to acquire, a highly coveted, one-of-a-kind, Verbotomy Cup.

Congratulations to rikboyee and Jabberwocky for taking the second and third positions. It was close – very close! And congraulations to everyone for a very creative week. Great words all round!

Verbotoweek In Review:

Monday’s lost thoughts struck a chord with me as I disconthinkcue, ponderror, braindrop, blinkling my way through life and just generally suffer from ruminesia. Tuesday was a farg day, filled with many blugger people who are total blixits. As a result, my language was full of fiduddles, merdededieux, phits and fudgemuffins. Wednesday’s topic was front page news world wide with Tour de France athletes, instead of the usual denyitol, defibulation, prescriptstun, were now decrying their aghrasst, jabbergasted and pharmapologia behaviour. Thursday and Friday’s nightmarish and embarrisshun situations of teeth and peer pressure was a fretend of angush gungfaux perfadiousness of passionvictims with various cases of dentritis, munchgrins, embarrasites, partickles, and evidents.

Our evolving language would be better off with the daily inclusion of any of the above words from our very creative Verbotimists.

Verbotoweek: Jabberwocky Wins!

Congratulations Jabberwocky:

This week’s easy overall winner was Jabberwocky with five strong words: dresspionage, inadequacedey, peddlerpushers, stunveilment and reflexcellegy.
Most verbotomists find it hard to come up with one, or two good words a week, but five definitely deserves the week’s honours. Congratulations!

And dear Jabberwocky, please answer this question: Which defintion and word are you going to choose for your Cup of Verbotomy?

To The Definitions:
This week’s task was again to take five social situations and capsulize them into one word, instead of fifteen, or twenty. Not an easy assignment, but our creative and dynamic Verbotomists met the challenges in interesting, humourous and demiurgic ways. Bravo to all.
We saw a cash challenged shopper shropp, stashandcarry, consumouflage, delayaway and commit dresspionage while the floorstalkers, shopcreepers, clurks, peddlerpushers and salesassassins lurked in the background trying to make a sale and a quick buck.
The impenetrable packaging on our goods created bloody fingernails, as well as cellopain, attackaging, shrinkorrhage, incaplasticate, autodiscomutilate and peelandheal.
The last two situations focused on our human need to answer that damn phone no matter what, causing automatonate, callflex, comproinstinctivringobsession, oughtoreply, phonepulsion and technobliged and the nightmarish image of having to start a project all over again from point zero causing a plightbulbmoment, an eslipphany, an apocalapse, an oemeffgy, or an ohnoment.
For all five definitions and situations our Verbotomists created amazing and brilliant Verboticisms! THANK YOU ALL!!

Are you thinking what we’re thinking? Look at word number nine by StevensonO, who by the way has three words in this Top Ten List. and finished second overall in the weekly ratings, for the second week in a row… But look at that word again! Do you see what we see? Is that an illegal word? It has space in it? How did he, or she, do that? We better call the directors to get a ruling…

Verbotoweek in a short summarized version

Verbotomy was a cruel taskmasker this week forcing all of us to refretish our thoughts like crazed workastallics running around in a vehiciouscircle. To circumnearthegate the cyclick exertsham of nyetworking, we played micehockey in an attempt at slackofflage. This quickly developed into an addclicktion and we began to moccupy our days in ecstickit escaptasy of funemployment encouraged by the libertrim and parkingsloth in our midst. The week ended with most of us doing a deliverdance in anticipation for the weekend, getting off the carouselect of managingdelector. Hopefully, the refreshology effect of the days off will enable us to appreciate the clixation of our exertsham and we can cruisepatrol into next week mcmoshing with eagerness.

The chit-chatty gets catty:

Here’s a little chit-chat about our cross-shaving wampeter on May 2nd:

Verbotomy – 2007-05-02: 01:27:00
Today’s definition was suggested by Bulletchewer.
Thank you Bulletchewer! ~ James

mplsbohemian – 2007-05-02: 10:58:00
That picture is so disturbing on so many levels.

mplsbohemian – 2007-05-02: 11:01:00
Um, oy, that must have come off so transphobic. :\

Verbotomy – 2007-05-02: 11:11:00
About the picture… I have received a suggestion that this young lady’s allegiances are less than clear, so I have prepared an alternative portrait. Please see: Being Clear About our Allegiances. Thanks ~ James

Jabberwocky – 2007-05-02: 12:59:00
Yikes!! the options are even more disturbing – pretty soon she’ll look like Chewbacca

purpleartichokes – 2007-05-02: 13:26:00
OMG! It’s an American Hairwolf in Toondon! (Or perhaps she has a hairmone problem.)

wordmeister – 2007-05-02: 16:30:00
Chewytobacca? I wonder what JediJawa thinks of that?

Bulletchewer – 2007-05-02: 16:45:00
Always love stirring up debate, but credit’s due the artist. For some strange reason forgotten in a dream, I only ever thought of this definition applying to the male of the species…

wordmeister – 2007-05-02: 17:26:00
It appears as if this wampeter definitely needs a waxing!

Read a beard full of verboticisms here and see James alternative pictures at Being Clear About our Allegiances.

Not a loss for words, just missed a few votes

These words didn’t get many votes because some of you vote at 05:00 am EST before you even see some of the better words. If you held off you could have voted for one of these great words, in my humble opinion of course!!!
