\"Why<\/p>\n

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

Exscrapolation<\/strong>: \/ecks-scrap-oh-LAY-shun<\/em>\/ Eloise has the disgusting habit of exscrapolation wherein she scrapes and licks bits of food from wrappers, bowls, even other peoples plates, leaving those items clean as a whistle. Etymology:<\/em> Play on the word extrapolation. Meaning the consumption of scraps of food. Created by:<\/em> Mustang.<\/p>\n

Resifood<\/strong>: \/Rez-eh-food<\/em>\/ Taking the last bite of her twinkie, she relished in the bonus resifood left on the twinkie’s rectangular holding plate. Etymology:<\/em> Residue+food Created by:<\/em> youmustvotenato.<\/p>\n

Wrapperscraps<\/strong>: \/rapp-uh-scrahh-pss<\/em>\/ The best part of a yoghurt is the wrapperscraps. Licking the lid might be something you wouldn’t do at the Queen’s table, but we all do it anyway. Besides, if I dined with the Queen, I’d be a bit disappointed if she only dished up yoghurt for us to eat. I’d at least expect something I’d struggle to pronounce, like some obscure cheese or rare cabbage or something. Etymology:<\/em> Wrapper – packaging or cover. Scraps – left over morsels. Created by:<\/em> Rhyme79.<\/p>\n

Reminant<\/strong>: \/rem in ant<\/em>\/ When Sal spotted Emily licking cheese off wrappers again, he knew she was displaying her reminant mode. Like cattle and antelope that enjoy their food over and over, so did she. It would have been less embarrassing for him in McDonald’s if she had just cleaned off her own wrappers… Etymology:<\/em> Remnant (a small part or portion that remains after the main part no longer exists)& Ruminant (any of various cud-chewing hoofed mammals having a stomach divided into four (occasionally three) compartments) & Ruminate(chew the cuds or deeply reflect upon something) Created by:<\/em> Nosila.<\/p>\n
