Words, Unusual Combinations of
Sat, 30 Jun 2007

If you'd prefer to avoid stories about fluids, stop now. (And if you want to get a postcard from Auschwitz, apparently you can. Capitolism must be alive in Poland nowadays as fridge magnets at tasteless locations is the one true benchmark.)

I offer up that there are a few interesting classes of words. Words that are unusual together such as 'lightbulb' and 'doctor' - pleasantly rarely used in the same sentence (except in pervy internet chatrooms.) There are words that you would think are rare together except in the company of specialists: 'spooky action at a distance' is an unlikely combination of words unless you're with physicists or in pervy internet chatrooms. I suppose lastly, my dear friend Aphyd would say that there are just plain funny words, like Mukluk.

Today I discovered some of the words that are all of these classifications - unusual together, common to specialists, and on no sleep.. sort of funny.

Shit storm. Kaka Fingerprint. Pooper Go-Round.

I suppose I could go into detail, but suffice to say that everyone knows the endeavers a new father goes through. I used to code every night. Now I need shirts that can be pulled over ths nose and rubber gloves. And +7 Diapers of Unlimited Holding.

Is this why they invented the Diaper Genie?
