\"Why<\/p>\n

VERBOTICISMS:<\/strong> (Invented words created by the Verbotomy Writers)<\/em><\/p>\n

Scrackerwhiff<\/strong>: \/skrA-kuh-wif<\/em>\/ No matter how much Anne tried, she could not make the scrackerwhiff angel sit straight atop the tree. Eventually Anne gave up and turned to the sherry, in an attempt to get scrackerwhiffy herself. Etymology:<\/em> Cracker + Skew-whiff Created by:<\/em> Carla.<\/p>\n

Yuletip<\/strong>: \/yool-tip<\/em>\/ Harry had too much egg nog that night and inconspicuously disappeared. They gathered over to the washroom door and peaked in. He had yuletipped with his head face down in the toilet. Etymology:<\/em> Yuletide (pertaining to the Christmas season) + tip (as in slope, slant, topple) Created by:<\/em> remistram.<\/p>\n

Needleviagra<\/strong>: \/nee dil vy ag ra<\/em>\/ When Dick brought the scraggly Christmas Tree home, he knew as soon as he brought it in the house that it was not as straight and bushy as it had looked in the tree lot. He also knew he’d never hear the end of it from his wife,Carol, who criticized him for bringing such a crooked tree home. “What kind of a conifer do you call that, Dick? It’s like the Leaning Tower of Pisa.” “It’s a new breed of fir called Needleviagra. One little blue pill in the water and it will soon be the lovely erect tree you wanted!” Etymology:<\/em> Needle (the “leaves” on a coniferous tree;to goad or prooke) & Viagra (Male virility drug) Created by:<\/em> Nosila.<\/p>\n

Slanta<\/strong>: \/slant\u00c9\u2122<\/em>\/ Tim is full of the Christmas spirit. More accurately he is full of Christmas spirits. He is a regular Slanta. Upright is not in his current skill set. Another cup of nog and it could be a case of Slanta Crawls. Etymology:<\/em> slant (slope or lean in a particular direction) + Santa (an imaginary figure said to bring presents for children on Christmas) Created by:<\/em> artr.<\/p>\n
