Fake-Word Appeal Panel

As a nonstandard word combining “regardless” and “irrespective,” it is allowed just to piss off language pedants.

As a term for a feat only possible with modern communication technology: when a person uses social media to present it as if they were on a vacation somewhere, while remaining at home or even at work, it is banned if for no other reason that simply for being too similar to the earlier banned fake word staycation.

Defined as “the period during which time two people text or instant message each other nearly identical comments.” It’s cutesy, which is a strike against it, but not overly so. It’s also a fairly straight forward fake word. The panel finds it allowable.

Short for “non-content,” as in, something so pointless it might as well not exist. (editor’s note: as in this blog.) This panel believes there is insufficient information to make final determination. Still, the panel suggests avoiding the word and referring to such content a “fucking dumb.”

As a term for users of Twitter, it is banned as requested by Pamela Mitchell. While were at it, let’s ban literati, technorati, digerati and fake words suffixed with -rati to create a new elite class of whatevers.

As a term for a retailer who only does business online, using, instead of a real store with real productus, electrons, e-mail and e-faux items, it is banned.

As a term for a post-nuptial vacation taken not to a lavish honeymoon destination but to an economical one where the intent is stay in bed and have sex all day, it is banned, though preferable to the term “sexcation.”

As a term to discribe the relm of the New Media Douche Bag, some argue that it should be allowed until a universal acceptance of the different meanings of “Internet,” “Intertubes” and “Interwebs” has been reached. The term is certainly mainstream and is often used on television to refer to What The Kids Are Saying, that alone is enough for this one-man panel to ban the term.

As a shortened version of totally, as in “She totes left the bar crawl before the third bar,” the word is banned. It is an acceptable noun for a bag, as in “She lost her tote before we got the third bar.”
