Post your \"made-up words\".
When I first got to California, someone used the word "sh'loads" in a sentence, as a contraction of the word "shitloads". I laughed hard. It seemed like some kind of strange Cali attitude that prompted people to contract words and phrases.
Shortly after, I made up my own Caltraction, "f'long", for a foot-long sub sandwich or hotdog.
I also found the need for a term describing a situation that sucks in one way, but rules in another. This gave birth to "suckrules". An example would be if you had a flat tire, but the person that stopped to help you offered you a job at a substantial pay raise. "Dude, that flat suckruled."
I have others, but I can't remember them offhand. They just come out sometimes.
Do you have any that you made up?
