MEEMO:
the word that began this whole dictionary of insanity. This is not
specifically a noun or verb or whatever, but can be used at any time just to
convey general insanity. For example, in a lull of conversation where words
have deserted you, ‘meemo’ can be a welcome addition. Or, people will think
you are insane. No matter, blame me!
HUFFAH:
this is like hurrah, only its my kind of hurrah. Hurrah sounded to old
fashioned for some reason in my head, so instead I changed it. It conveys that
you are glad about something, for example, if someone gives you some Bachelors
Super Noodles (they’re supererer!) you say, “Huffah!”
CHUH:
this is like huh, only my kind of huh. Its sort of like a tut and a huh mixed
together. Can be used to convey disbelief, or that you do not agree with
something. For example, if someone says to you that they do not like your
noodles, say “CHUH! Yeah right.”
MEEMOP:
this is a special occasion meemo, used only in times of extreme hilarity or
insanity. Not to be used in general conversation, for fear of people thinking
that you are more excited/insane than you actually are.
MOOME:
this is a meemo mistake. If you have said something by accident that conveys
that you are insane/losing it, say moome. For example, if you have just said
“My dad eats hippo’s for a living.” and want to retract the statement, say
“moome” carefully, and when the statement has been forgotten due to the
complexities and perplexities of the moome you will be home and dry.
GEESHK:
this conveys fear. I found this out by coming up with the word one day and
then the next day having a bee land on my book and saying ‘Geeshk! Geeshk!
Geeshk!” (me, not the bee) repetitively until it flew away. Many thanks to
Leila for the spelling: without her it would still be the grammatical
nightmare of Geesk. Use this in a situation when someone says or does
something that scares you. For example, if someone lunges at you with an
outstretched carrot, say, “Geeshk!” very loudly and run swiftly away.
CHEECH:
this indicates amusement and is usually presented alongside an exclamation
mark when written. This is one of my newest words, which just sort of fell
into my head. I knew the meaning instantly, for no reason other than it was
funny. For example, if someone tells you that they have fallen in a ditch,
say, “cheech!” and then laugh until they come out. Offering no help, of
course.
MEEP:
this indicates acknowledgement of someone, and can also act as a greeting.
Often accompanied by an exclamation mark when written. For example, when
desire overtakes you to start a conversation, go and jump on the person in
question and yell ‘meep!’ a them. This also works in a group session, where it
is polite to say ‘meep’ to each member of the group in turn. Another meaning
of meep is when you say it twice in quick succession. This indicates general
insanity and road-runnerish behaviour.
STEEG BOLGAR:
this word was a joint effort between myself (Steeg) and my friend Mike, who
came up with Bolgar. We wanted something which would convey boredom, or that
you had had a boring day. So, when asked how your day was and you want to
convey that is was like watching an elderly woman slowly picking up peas
individually in order to count out a hundred and losing her count every time,
just simply reply ‘Steeg Bolgar.’ This can be accompanied by a grimace or
frown or a wobbling hand.
PTUBE:
I came up with this on the same day as STEEG BOLGAR (see above), and have yet
to determine what it means. Pronounced PA-CHOOBE, you have to say it really
quickly. It was another of those ones that fell out of my mouth. It wasn’t my
fault, I was bouncing down the corridor at college at the time. ANYTHING can
happen when I bounce or generally do anything that differs from what I
probably should be doing. Use it when you feel especially excited or moving
quickly.
OOBLES:
this came about as a result of singing a really stupid song at my placement
entitled ‘oohbladi, oohbalhda, spring has sprung, YEAH!” After that it just
sort of fell into my head like most of my words!! It conveys something along
the line of a sigh. For example, if someone says to you that they can no
longer accompany you to a banana festival, you look at them wistfully and say
“ooobles.” Or, alternatively, you can attack them with said bananas.
Completely up to you.
CONFIDDLE:
this was the result of a repetitive typo. Meant to be confuddle, it can
indicate confusion of in alternative situations that that you are confused
about fiddling. With certain people. Will not put this in context for fear of
scaring youngsters……..
MEEPLES:
this replaces the traditional F word. This can be used if, like me, you need
to swear but are forced not to. Like working with children. So, if someone has
a go at you for eating their pet hobbit when you just thought it was an
especially furry leg of ham, shout, “oh, MEEPLES!!!” at them and then stomp
off, enjoying the look of rage mixed with general confuddlement from a safe
distance.
POUK:
pronounced like PUKK, this should be used when poking someone. It is fun!!
CHEEPLES:
This is just designed to be cute, really. This, again, is another one that
fell into my head and therefore into my everyday life. For example, if you
want to appear cute when you are really harbouring a secret lemon in your
pocket, say “Cheeples!” to convey that you are really very nice girl/boy who
would never even DREAM of having a secret lemon.
CHEEBLES:
A variant of cheeples. This is used when the element of cuteness needs to be
lessened. Good when used towards males.
PRINK:
this came about as a slur of pink whilst in the middle of the Lucky Star. It
just happened! I wasn’t drinking or anything! It was the noodles, they made me
high! We eventually decided (we being me and Rob) that it was halfway between
pink and red, so HUFFAH! A new colour!
BLEEF:
another slur. Meant to be beef. Perhaps they put something in my coke?
GWEEM:
Rob came up with this. Am unsure of the meaning as yet, but am thinking that
it has something to do with being tickled.
GRAGH:
this is a kind of ‘argh’. I didn’t like the traditional argh so say Gragh
instead. Its more….you know….whatever that word is. So, for example, if
someone throws sherbet into your eyes whilst attempting to steal your lucky
parsnip, shout “Gragh!”. This will signal your distress and hopefully distract
whoever it is. Nobody should throw sherbet anyway. *rubs eye* (see Clairisms)
