Stumble it!This week’s word is scissorfy. As usual, make up a definition for it and post it in the comments. Including it in a sentence is greatly appreciated, but not required.
Last week’s word was flummonade, and there were a lot of great definitions that people made up! If you want a good laugh, read the comments.
But one definition has to win, and after much deliberation on the part of yours truly, that winner is Azila with:
flummonade (v.): to flounce about joyously, unaware of great danger and/or embarrassment you are causing for your self.
- Hubert flummonaded out of the barber’s shop, not noticing the bug-eyed stares pedestrians were awarding to the large clump of hair that the barber had accidentally died green
Next week, I’ll be posting all of the newly created words and a small contest (with a prize!) will be held; the person who uses the most new words in the correct way on sites other than YWS will win. More details next week.
