Up to this point, I must confess,my life has been pretty aimless. No longer though!
I have long been mulling over the idea of inventing a word and trying to get it into the Macquarie Dictionary. I have decided on that word. I have not heard anyone else using it, so if it already exists in this form, my life is pointless...
"The word?" you might ask.
My word is "shemull", which is one of those hideous mullets that some females insist on sporting. Lets face it, the Eighties are over and some fashions should not be revisited. Not only that, but they don't suit most of the girls/women wearing them. Besides which, I just think they look stupid.
Anyway, I must ask that anyone reading this starts using the word "shemull", as well as encouraging others to use it. If it gets used enough to come into common usage in Australia, I think Macquarie feels obliged to publish it as a real word.
I have other possible words and phrases floating round in my head, such as "bogan tuxedo", which is the least holey pair of jeans in a bogans wardrobe, teamed with his "good" flanny shirt. If anyone has ideas of their own, let me know. I have heard of "people power" and want to see if it really exists.

ReplyDeleteToday's fashion dictates we wear jeans long enough; with the invention of long length in retailers; why do people still insist on wearing 'ankle freezers. I thought they disappeared with 'Urkel'(another 80's TV character.
Yeah, but Urkel wore his pants with a really high waist, not sitting at half mast with his bum cleavage showing. Interestingly, someone has actually come up with "bum jewels", which are bejewelled patches designed to cover up the crack when wearing low riding pants...It's true, I tell you!
