Cellar Glossary
 
Thought of a new word, or heard one somewhere that made you sit up and take note? Put it here and we can all start using it until it becomes passe and then all the way back to cool again. Or maybe you've discovered a new way to use a word, dressing up a tired old word with a shiny new definition? Share your wordcraft here and win the admiration of your peers.

Words - they're what the cool kids are into.

We must include old standards, unique to these climes, to be a true Cellar Glossary, and useful to future linguistic archeologists saying, "The fuck is that?". :cool:

My clumsy fingers invented a word on text message the other day - vominting.
Which is when a lady who has an unhealthy obsession with her weight, uses the bathroom after eating and then cleans her teeth.

It's not a Cellar thing though.

So, how does a racist say 'piss'?

:p:

footfootfoot 12-11-2016 10:22 PM

Where did piss like a racist come from? Was that a story from Case or Kerosene?

Undertoad 12-11-2016 11:43 PM

For a while we had a list of mixed/confused metaphors that we used to admire, was that on the list?

I think some made it into the cookie file

"Nobody has been able to ridicule my argument with bullets."

"He made out like a Band-Aid"

but now when I'm desperate I always at least think "I need to pee like a racist" and it's all your fault.

lumberjim 03-10-2019 10:08 PM

You're welcome

monster 03-10-2019 10:46 PM

:) I'll return the favor some day

Gravdigr 03-11-2019 11:49 AM

I was gonna say, b4 reading at the link, that the phrase is often frilled with 'like a Russian racehorse'.
