New post because it's 2018 - new additions to the Fesaurus!

Hello!

...

... ... ...

Right, so I guess that means I have nothing to say, so I'll just leave these new Facetious Fesaurus (half fesaurus, half prickshionary?) entries here for your perusal:



mofoments
  • moments that involve mofos - not to be confused with mo-faux Mondays


Nuromole-y-mole-y-mole
  • the verbal reaction that occurs when one gets told they can't get Nurofen or Paracetamol anymore because they only have Nuromol to choose from

I swug this (new version of "I got this")

Hello again,

It isn't far off the end of 2016, and so we're getting in just in time with a post for the year. There isn't much of interest to say, except we always get a kick out of popping back to this blog and checking out the sheer madness of years past, captured in wacky blog posts for all the world to see.

We just hope there is no global disaster that ends up killing the interwebs, and therefore our wonderful blog of stupidity.

This time I have a new Facetious Fesaurus addition to report:

swug
  • past tense of swig when you can't be bothered using extra letters to write "swigged" - "I swug that coffee."

And here is the last photo we took of the whiteboard prior to it being wiped (the most recent time):


Since this most recent wipeage, we have actually encountered the most extraordinary word in an unknown language in one of our metadata records, and our interpretation of its definition (to be added to the Fesaurus after this post is published):


  • TNANAGETNENT: 
    a tangerine on a tangent at Plantagenent .... O.O huh??

In closing, may we just say... "Happy New Year and Merry 'All That Stuff'!"

A list of 'whiteboard things' from May 2015

We agreed we should probably make a public record of 'stuff' that is on our whiteboard currently, because it's getting pretty chockers and that means it's going to be wiped clean sometime soon!

Ironically there isn't really anything work related, though I guess this one is a little bit related to some of the work we do:


Summotes!

Mostly though, it's things like:


Micro-working
-The absolute minimum of work that can be done
before it's seen as "not working"



"May the junk food fairy be with you"
- Trisha, 2014


The tedium of a tedious task is tediousness
.... tediously ....

MEGA - SLIVER
a really small piece of a really big cake

* STUPIDUS MAXIMUS *



There's more where that came from, but I
want a piece of mud cake with whipped
cream and a San Churro's hot chocolate
drizzled over it all. And I can't have one.
So here ends the blog post!

It's been a long time between rants

Hello everyone who isn't reading this!

I wanted to post something at least in 2014, so that this blog could have some TLC at least once a year. I have just added our latest word to the Facetious Fesaurus: "tawse". Go to the fesaurus to find out what this fascinating word means!

I have to admit to one of our favourite pastimes of late - looking up funny and ridiculous personalised numberplates on this site. I also keep a collection of personalised numberplates spotted out on the roads, which I update in a secure location where only friends can see. And I have a lot of people who help in that they report their own sightings of numberplates.

The latest report was of a number plate reading XTRAHOT.

Some of the worst ones are just too naughty to write in public, so I won't write them here. But they really do make a person wonder ... what are some people thinking?!
