[Cronos Impera]

Statistics and global warming have forced us to save words. This thread is purposewise to that matter.
Just as an intelectual challange for the Backroom. A Backroom political game if you like it.
Challange:help build a common Newspeak dictionary for use in Backroom threads.

Ballons

Baloons Given:

[Gregoshi]

Textual assault = flaming

Balloon-worthy = an award or praise with or without value (depending upon intent)

Cronos' offer of a balloon for participation is an example of balloon-worthy with value. His intent is as a reward for participation. It could also be used as sarcasm "That's ridiculous. Your logic is balloon-worthy." where :balloon2: = ~:rolleyes:

Do I get a balloon? :clown:

[Cronos Impera]

Post 1 updated. And you get a baloon.

The Backroom already has an advanced newspeak dictionary.

The 10th Edition will comprise of just the word Bollox and a list of member's names. This will allow any subject to be discussed in the Backroom's finest traditions.

For example:


Thread 1

Fragony
Bollox
Fragony
Bollox
Fragony
Bollox


Thread 2

Crazed Rabbit
Bollox
Crazed Rabbit
Bollox
Crazed Rabbit
Bollox

Is there anyone here who doesn't know exactly what those threads are discussing?

:wink:

naughtigain = pronounced naw-ti-gan. 1) A noun referring to any recurring discussion or patron interaction that results in heated debate and will never yield a satisfactory result for either side. 2) A noun referring to any recurring discussion or patron interaction that results in heated debate and will never yield a satisfactory result for either side. 3) A noun referring to any recurring discussion or patron interaction that results in heated debate and will never yield a satisfactory result for either side.

Discussions are often initiated 1) by a new Backroom patron who thinks it is a good topic that has never been discussed before; or 2) the beginning of any major sports event. The patron interaction naughtigains are prompted by anything from the color of the sky to the patron's next breath.

See BG's and Marshal's posts for examples of both. The term is a mashup of "not again" and "naught to gain".

[Gregoshi]

Islam and Gun Control respectively?
:no: The correct answer is "It doesn't matter."

[Gregoshi]

Gunbortion, a subset of naughtigains, often yielding naughti joycamptours
Gunbortions is a good refinement. I should add that to be a proper gunbortion, the participants must either provide nothing to back up their claim or use sources so slanted in favour of their point that even they have to hold their nose whilst referencing it.

[Gregoshi]

OPummm = noun, pronounced oh-pee-um. A thread with a title that tells you nothing about the topic.

1) Texas is so great that it is only owing to the very greatness of its magnanimity that it allows non-Texas subjects to be discussed. Be thankful, mortal.

2) Frexans ARE always right. Hence there can be no over-inflation of opinion. And hence, Frexan rightousness is still only a sign of humility, a sign that they deem their audience worthy of a reply.

Outside of Tribesman and Beirut type words, are any of these actually used? At least I've not come across them.

It was my understanding from the OP that this is a game or exercise to come up with new words to use here at the Org. That is why you've not seen them.

Now, the ironic thing is... I did not in ANY way point at the US of A.

look at my post again:
I must say though, rarely has a nations politics been described in one word: Gunbortion!

I just said "a nation", YOU were the one who imediatly thought of the US of A.

Thank you!

You just proved my point :thumbsup:

You just proved my point :thumbsup:Oh, that is ridiculUS. Of course with 'a nation' you refered to the US. :coffeenews:

Why don't you just say - if you feel you must say anything about it in the first place - that you simply meant that an inordinate amount of American intellectual energy is spend on gun and abortion debates, but that this was perhaps phrased in a way that made it sound closer to a cheapshot than was intended? It is how I understood it.

[Fragony]

How the hell did I miss this? :laugh4:

[Gregoshi]

...an inordinate amount of American intellectual energy...
We have intellect!? Awesome. I gotta get me some!

[Kadagar_AV]

I thought that was more like an oxymoron?

[Kadagar_AV]

Before I get to much flame...

Do not get me wrong. As a former race skier and current ski instructor, I can't do anything except *bow* to america and Bode Miller...

If you wonder why (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__Faa87IQhk)

So really, dont think I am anti-USA... I am, however, ANTI-Bush-politics.

I hope Obama will be better:)

VERY off- topic... But hey, if I for once celebrate the US of A, I should be pardoned?
