Educating and informing the community!

 

 

I always tell everyone that I am an inventor.  I’ve invented a lot of trivial things, but not many folks know about them.  Truth is, someone has probably already invented them, but it is something completely new to me and I can’t find it on Google! then I lay claim.  Maybe I should pay attention to the next time one of those commercials comes on TV about inventors and inventions. You know, where to send the idea, how to get it patented, etc.  You probably invent things as well, but don’t think much about them, until you see an infomercial where someone invented something and is in the process of making a hundred billion dollars off of your idea.

 

Anyway, my latest inventions are two words, soon to be published on UrbanDictionary.com.  The first word… “Thinkology”.  I invented this word about ten years ago, even submitted to http://m-w.com back then, but the lady came back and said that wasn’t the way to add words to the English language.  (Like Urban Dictionary is, right?).  So this word means, literally, the science of your thought. A definition is: a method of how a person reached a conclusion.  In other words, the thinking or thought process behind his or her path to reach a decision or conclusion. I’ll use it in a couple of sentences:

 

Hughie – what was your thinkology for running up $14,883.99 worth of explicit 900 calls on your mom’s Visa card?”

 

“Norma – your thinkology to create that quadruple-nested cursor in that stored procedure was way out there if you ask me”

 

The next word isn’t really a word, but more of a phrase. It is… “Kid Card”.  The definition of this one is:  To use a son or daughter as an excuse to miss a certain event or opt out of a previous commitment. This might be used like so:

 

<ring> <ring>

Tom: “Hello”

Lee: “Wow dude, you already home?”

Tom: “Yeah, had to go pick up my son”

Lee: “Ah gotcha. Played your Kid Card again I see.  You slacker!”

"Has it ever occurred to you that I have agreed to look after the OVERLOOK Hotel until May the FIRST. Does it MATTER TO YOU AT ALL that the OWNERS have placed their COMPLETE CONFIDENCE and TRUST in me, and that I have signed a letter of agreement, a CONTRACT, in which I have accepted that RESPONSIBILITY?"
