Neologizing
By Mitch Berg
I’ve always wanted to create a new word for the English language [1].
And I think that word is going to be “Inshgoogle” (pronounced “Insh-GOO-gle”).
It’s a corruption of the Arabic “Insh’allah”, meaning “If it’s Allah’s will”. Its meaning, essentially, becomes “If my Google information is correct…”
That is all.
[1] My ambition, in fact, was to leave a word or saying. Now, I see my old remark “when I die, I want to be scattered over my hometown. No, not cremated…” popping up here and there around the web, so some of the pressure is off. Still, my ambition has now shifted to getting a new word in the OED.

Good ambition, Mitch. My plan remains to create a new Hallmark Holiday. Details anon….

That is the most racist thing anyone has ever written on any blog.

Hey Mitch, how about a catchphrase?
“That horse won’t dance.”
Kinda like “that dog won’t hunt,” only dressagier.

That clown ain’t funny?

Hey, Angry Clown, do you think the University of Chicago Hospital will give Michelle Obama back her no-show job if Romney wins in November?
They never did hire anyone to replace her.

Ah, dressage. Classy and admirable when Jackie Kennedy did it. Elitist and stupid when Anne Romney does it.

Part of the Democrat war on women with MS who have survived breast cancer.

Kinda French, kinda fruity, no?
Oh right, Willard Mitt lived in France. Instead of fighting in Vietnam.

I don’t even know what you are talking about anymore, Angry Clown.
Did Obama fight in Vietnam?
Maybe you should see a therapist.

Did Obama fight in Vietnam?
No, that was Biden.
After he graduated from the USMC Academy.

Did Obama fight in Vietnam?
Yes. His side won.

No, Terry, President Obama used the clever dodge that he was 13 when Saigon fell. Willard was saving French souls for Joseph Smith during the war.
Sorry pal, that horse won’t dance. (TM Angryclown)

Everyone who didn’t serve in Vietnam is Bad. Except Bill Clinton, who is Good. Conscientious Objectors are Commies.
Okay, Clown, I’ve got it now. Thanks for the brush-up.

I still don’t know what you are getting at, Angry Clown. Obama didn’t join the military when we were at peace, though he certainly could have. You voted for Obama in 2008, not war hero John McCain. What point are you trying to make, anyhow? It can’t be that Obama is somehow more patriotic or courageous than Romney based on lack of military experience.
Didn’t Biden get 5 deferments during the Vietnam War? Where did you come up with this argument? It makes no sense.

Arguments are wasted on you loonies, Blofeld. You spend your time chasing down the president’s birth certificate and prattling about conspiracies to distort climate science in favor of those oh-so-scary scary environmentalists. Angryclown is merely mocking you. Your candidate speaks flawless French and owns an expensive, though spectacularly unsuccessful, dancing horse. It’s funny to watch you pretend that’s not comical.

And . . . Angry Clown looks for the exit.
Hard to runaway when I’ve tied your shoelaces together, Angry Clown.
Why in the world did you try to besmirch Romney’s non-military record when you enthusiastically support candidates who have never taken a courageous stand for anything in their entire lives? That was stupid.
September 24th, 2012 at 4:11 pm
Why behold you the speck on Angryclown’s foot, but consider not the toilet paper stuck to your own shoe?
Your words are stupid, Blofeld. I mock them as I mock you.
September 24th, 2012 at 11:20 pm
Because it’s not a speck, it’s a freakin’ black hole.
The problem is that the government is out of money.
Mitt Romney has been very successful at making money. He’s a natural at it.
Obama couldn’t make money to save his life. He’s leeched off the government his whole life.
Your solution to the problem? Vote for Obama!
If you ignore the stagnant economy, the high unemployment, and the unsustainable debt, all that’s left is abortion and gay marriage, and that means the left, not the right, is obsessed with social issues above all.
Gimme a break. When the money runs out no one is going to give a shit about what social issues are important. All that will matter is money and food.
That is where Obama is taking us.
September 24th, 2012 at 11:27 pm
Money running out? That’s junk science, you big chump. Just like climate change. When our country needs more money, we’ll just print some more, you America-hating son of a bitch.

I’m not big!
