Won’t be posting again until noon ’cos Ian is taking me for an all-inclusive trip to the paradise island of San Seriffe in the Indian Ocean. We’re staying in Umbra on Caissa Superiore. Tim’s been palmed off to friends for the school holidays, so – sun, sea, sand and _ _ _!
Ian says the islands look like this.

Words we all use that don't exist.
ReplyDeleteGULLIBLE.
This is a word first used in America in the 30's.
It does not appear in any English dictionary (or any American English dictionary) but we all use it occasionally.
And if you Google, it comes back "This word does not exist".
Interesting!
Any others?
Didn't catch me out either Bevian,but nice try....
ReplyDeleteMy fav April Fool 'prank' was The Left Hand Whopper.....
Burger King published a full page advertisement in the April 1st edition of USA Today announcing the introduction of a new item to their menu: a "Left-Handed Whopper" specially designed for the 32 million left-handed Americans. According to the advertisement, the new whopper included the same ingredients as the original Whopper (lettuce, tomato, hamburger patty, etc.), but all the condiments were rotated 180 degrees for the benefit of their left-handed customers. The following day Burger King issued a follow-up release revealing that although the Left-Handed Whopper was a hoax, thousands of customers had gone into restaurants to request the new sandwich. Simultaneously, according to the press release, "many others requested their own 'right handed' version."

This true story is about a rather daft Jarra lass.
She goes to see her GP and says 'Doctor, I've been very silly...I've been taking steroids for the past year, and now I've grown a DICK!
GP says 'Steroids, huh? Anabolic?
'No' the woman replies.."JUST A DICK"
