Growing the Lexicon
New words/terms that I’ve created:
- cerebratosis
- Like halitosis meaning ‘oral malodor,’ this term refers to a condition whereby your brain produces an offensive ‘odor’ causing you to say and do stupid things without thinking.
- electile dysfunction
- The inability to be aroused by any candidate in an election.
note: I didn’t create this new term, rather I encountered this elsewhere on the net and felt it was worth adding here.
- situational myopia
- An inability to see past your immediate reality to the bigger picture around you. Â The proverbial “failure to see the forest for the trees.”
- stone pig
- A Stone Pig is an undeniable underlying truth. Â To quote Thomas Jefferson from the United States Declaration of Independence, “We hold these truths to be self evident.” Â In other words, they are things which are simply accepted as fact; they are indisputable. Â They are the basis of other thoughts upon which we can build, and from which we reach higher conclusions.
