Gallant Efforts

As much as physicists may talk about spherical cows in a vacuum, there is no such thing as an ANTICOW.

EDIT: On the other hand I just discovered on a separate board that NONCOW and NONCOWS are words.

On the other hand, apparently MICROBLOGGING is a thing.

The guy in my apartment complex with the obnoxiously loud car subwoofers isn't listening to anything with MEGABASS.

No such thing as a METAPHONE, whatever that might be.

It is what I use to call up Mark Zuckerberg when when I want to discuss the concepts of identity, being, space and time.

The World Series taco-ization of America continues

Published in Mass Live October 23, 2008. Darn those hyphens. The headline was written by Dan Lamothe.

The fusion taco place in my neighborhood is not engaging in TACOIZATION of other cuisines...

In case you've ever wondered, NECROTHERAPY is not a thing.

...yet.

Considering some of the methods and products out there that people have come up with and are trying to sell to gullible consumers, I wouldn't be surprised...

In case you ever find yourself wondering whether a "sandalmonger" exists... no, they don't. But if you ever find the word on a board, there's probably a C right next to it.

Thanks for this tip. I wondered if SANDALIZES was a word, and then noticed the C next to it.

Ah, the Yugo! The car that required a driver and three passengers. One person to steer and the three passengers to push the car up hills.

No credit for JUGOMOBILE (does no one remember the Yugo?) or for ZOOMOBILE.

CRYPTOPOETS aren't a thing, no matter how eloquent some crypto bros may think they are.

Ooh I think that's a really nice word though. And in this day and age, could totally be a thing. Let's add it to the dictionary.

It could also be a word for poets who specialise in cryptic verses or riddles.
"So what do you do?"
"I'm a freelance cryptopoet for the Sunday Times."

Look at this board. What do you see?
Perhaps you see the actual longest word, ROMANTICIZATIONS?
I didn't. I saw MANTICORIZATIONS.
Maybe I've been reading too much fantasy lately.
