    Default Orgah Newspeak Dictionary

    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.
    Prize: for anyone who participates

    Thread is plusbackroomwise. Duckspeak you're think. And no prolefeedstuff, please!
    I'll just speakwrite my first words then.All doubleplusgoodstuff shall be posted into the opening reply.

    Reverting to OldSpeak:
    Definitions and terms can be improved/rectified.


    writepol = moderators
    joywrite = trolling
    textual-assault=flaming
    joywriter = troll
    cameldung = ********,nonsense
    gahspeak = spam/flaming when applied to banned people, brilliant comments when applied to the rest of the population
    joycamptour = warning

    joycampleaving = restoring an account
    joycamper = suspended account
    Balloon-worthy = an award or praise with or without value (depending upon intent)
    BOLLOX = THE ONE WORD
    a la moed = translation from french "served with Texas" 1) a thread in which the greatness of Texas or Texans is mentioned; 2) a ridiculously over-inflated opinion of one's self or rightness of one's argument.
    yebut = pronounced yeah-but. The tendency of someone to find the negative and controversial (real or imagined) in even the most positive of discussions. The result is usually thread closure and examples of most, if not all, the joycamp words from the Orgah Newspeak Dictionary.
    OPummm = noun, pronounced oh-pee-um. A thread with a title that tells you nothing about the topic.
    Voice of Gah!d = an argument so absurd, the poster must be listening to a voice in his head, and it ain't the voice of logic or reason.
    OrgSoc = Orgah Socialism
    Noforumer = Banned Orgah
    Minlove = Backroom
    NoTruth = "Posted as is"
    NewTruth = "Altered by speakpol"
    TediUS = A variation on the Godwin theme, it is the inevitable tendency of any thread to blame the United States for everything or to take a cheap shot at same for effect.
    Texicitry - the tendency to always mention a certain state in one's post with utter disregard to the relevance of it to the topic being discussed.
    Galloticitry - the ability to always mention a certain country in one's post and somehow make it seem relevant to the topic being discussed.
    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.
    Gregspeak - use of punnery
    doublewrite - the paradoxal ability of making inconsistent posts, forgetting and remembering differing parts of it as the situation demands without being aware of it (I'd call this doublepost, but that's already a word in oldspeak)

    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 =

    Do I get a balloon?

    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?

    I ask because it's usually something like that which causes outbursts like this, needless to say I dissagree completely.
