The big Fan forum experiment...

We need to get together and 'do something'. No Los, not that

I was thinking, we need to invent a new word, that will start here at FF and then, as there are so many of us, eventually spread throughout the net and eventually end up on the new edition of the 'Oxford English Dictionary'.

OK?

Well then lets go....


I think we need a new verb, the act of accidentally typing 4 w's instead of the usual 3 when typing an url. ie typing wwww.fanforums.com instead of www.fanforum.com.

Got it? Got your thinking caps on?

Then go............




if this thread dosen't die, the winner will see his/her new verb used on FF untill it gets picked up everywhere else



Well it's one way to while away the summer...

That's generic (sp?) good, but generic. We need a spanking fresh verb for that extra 'w'

Hmm...I think we need to have some sources to work with first. Just randomly making up a word isn't good enough. Like, we should have a list of real words that could relate to this situation and then we develop some words from these "root words".

Examples of some root words to work from:

spasm
goof
oops
typo
keys
miss
extra
flaw
error

Well, people were able to get bouncebackability into the dictionary, so we have a chance.

Unfortunately, I have no good suggestions.
