Duhlicious word<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Stupifluous<\/strong>: \/stoop if loo us<\/em>\/ LuLu thought it ironic that when she bought a simple item like a comb for her hair, it came with lengthy instructions. Unwrap plastic around comb, place on top if head and pull through hair to detangle and smooth it. It was too bad that these stupifluous instructions did not come with furniture that needed assembly. Either the only clue to assembly was a simple diagram without enough detail or something written in Swedish. And don’t get her started about those instructions that were very badly translated into English…they would have been clearer in their original lingo! Etymology:<\/em> Stupid (without much intelligence) & Superflous (more than is needed, desired, or required;extra;unnecessary) Created by:<\/em> Nosila.<\/p>\n

and it’s fun to say.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Caveabsurdigious<\/strong>: \/kah-vey-ab-sur-di-gous<\/em>\/ The folks in legal, being highly tagmatic, applied caveabsurdigious directions to every product to protect the company from lawsuits that may come due to accidents or death by stupidity. Etymology:<\/em> caveat: legalese term for warning, caution; an explanation or qualification + absurd:ridiculously unreasonable or illogical + litigious: tending to engage in lawsuits Created by:<\/em> mrskellyscl.<\/p>\n

Binstructions<\/strong>: \/binstr\u00c9\u2122ksh\u00c9\u2122nz<\/em>\/ Many products come with grinstructions, directions that are so ludicrous that you have to laugh. Others, especially those from power tools, have grimstructions with their graphic depictions of severed limbs. Ultimately all are binstructions, destined or a quick trip to the recycle container. Etymology:<\/em> bin (a receptacle in which to deposit trash or recyclables) + instructions (detailed information telling how something should be done, operated, or assembled) Created by:<\/em> artr.<\/p>\n
