Coining a New Expletive for the Astro Set
John,
Holy herb, this herbing stuff is herbing good! Anthony. John Steinberg wrote: With all the recent (and not so recent) sturm und drang over a certain astro site and a certain astro dealer, I submit for your review and consideration, a new word for the amateur astronomy lexicon. Naturally, inventing a new word, or at least a new usage for an old word, is a difficult task, fraught with peril and with no guarantee of success. It's can be a Herculean task that will likely require the assistance of untold millions, but perhaps we can create the butterfly effect beginning right here on s.a.a.? I know you're dying to know the word, but first let me provide some selling points: - Usage of same will not bring Michael Powell & the FCC to your door. - You can use it safely and politely in mixed company. - No worries about youngsters hearing you use it. - As with many of the greatest expletives, it's just four letters. - It's equally benign when used in written or oral form. - It's a lot easier to spell than supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. - Trump can't copyright it. Suggested uses and exemplar sentences: "Oh herb! I just drove 300 miles to a star party and forgot my herbing eyepieces!" Herb you! You herbhead! After dropping an 8 lb. counterpoise weight on your foot, you could shout, "Oh, herb, herb!!!!" "That guy is a herbing s.o.b.!" "Honey, the kids are asleep, wanna herb?" "Are your herbing crazy!?" "Dude, this herb I'm smoking is herbing awesome!" "People who misunderestimate me will be herbed royally!" "Yeah, I herbed her." "Why don't you go herb yourself!?" There is no herbing way I'm going to let your snot-nosed, sticky-fingered, grubby little kid anywhere near my herbing Takahashi! "Kiss me before you herb me, you herbing herb!" "John, what the herb have you been smoking?" |
