Marksisms (noun): 1) Fictionary words invented by my husband (like Chopperazzi), 2) words or phrases made up by anybody named Mark.
Do you like to make up words?
Do you have some ‘isms’?
Do you like muffins?
Then–great news–you are invited to play Fictionary!
Let’s Play!
!
Well, I didn’t make them up, but I’ve picked up a lot of stupid internet words because I like them. Sadfaced, madfaced, stabby (as in I feel stabby today), etc.
I still think that I outdid myself with “masterfeces™” (think 50SoG, Twilight).
That is awesome. Enter the contest!
I shall do it before this week is over, today’s post needs to smolder a bit, I think.
I haven’t read ANYBODY’s posts today yet… I’m actually working. Like, as in, paid work. Woot! I’ll make my way over to your blog shortly!
Working is good…
It’s going to really cramp my blogging though.
I bet…and you have kids…
Aaahhhh. I KNEW there was another example out there in the blogosphere I wanted to link to. I might have to put another verse on my poem just for this.
Off-topic here, but this might interest you:

I once won a bet at my work that I could use a made up word five times in a day and not be called out on it. I won! The word was innibulate.
Love it. Get that definition writ!
To innibulate means to but a nib on something – for example, the jabby point on my wire document rack which required, that day, some for of innibulation to prevent it injuring me further, as it had become disinnibulated at some point in the past.
Hahaha.
Okay, well, if you want to enter the Fictionary contest (and maybe win muffins!) the post “Let’s Play Fictionary” has the rules.
There is nothing better than making up words!
Agreed. It was a major reason I started blogging… just to keep track of them all!
I wish I was clever enough to participate…
Oh, you. Maybe you’ll come up with something in a dream.
