Below is a collection of terms which are unique to our great blogosphere. Some are made-up words, while others are words that have been maliciously stripped of all meaning. In any event, bloggers take great pride in their savage lingo. Credits are listed for some of them. However, origins of a few remain a mystery. Feel free to add any terms, phrases, or general #### that I may have missed. Hope you enjoy:

Miracle, sorry about that keyboard...but glad to entertain you. I hope your chair is sturdy enough to handle Big B.
So it was Hogfan on the Nyquila Sunrise. I actually decided to hear from everyone, and then revise this. Can keep adding too. Not sure how I missed the other Nyquil drinks. But I'll add some more later.
We could give a freshman orientation for any new bloggers. Maybe a little hazing, too.
Neo, like I said...I'll probably keep adding to this. Maybe revising every month or so. I think adding "Doogie" is a necessity.
ShooterB - Simply stated, thsi is one of the best blog posts I have ever read. Hysterically funny and poignant.
Seriously well done mate. 6 comments, now 7 is a mockery... but then again, more people have read the latest Danielle Steele than The Catcher in Rye.
Can't teach brains, class or taste. Sadly, stupid is the only inherent trait that stands the test of time... cockroaching itself from generation to generation.
Miracle, can I order one of those chairs? Bertha's broken so many that we just have a bunch of bean bags for living room furniture. Unfortunately, everytime she sits on one...it pops. If 3 #### beauties sit down at once, it simulates an indoor blizzard with all the bean bag stuffing flying around.
Almost forgot about the NyqaPipple. Any drink with Ripple in it is OK in my book.
Socal...that's one of my faves too. Smoke invented that a long time ago, but it's still engrained in the memory.

Great Post by Comedic Genius #SB.002 (that's the number on your Comedic Genius card. Thanks for recognizing some of my words and sorry about the Eagles.
Shooter, I'm down for hazing all new members. Smoke can do "Crossing The Desert", FlyingPig can enact "The Unblinking Eye", Miracle's in charge of "The Wreck of the Hesperus" and since you are the Grand Master, you can issue the final test, "The Paddling of the Swollen #### with Paddles."
Thanks, MeanD. And I think that term will work. Could also be used when one can't see out of their ####...because their head has been up there for so long. Mostly applies to referees, and a lot of delusional franchise owners (see Matt Millen).
What about "OUI"( French word casually used by North American Folks expressing their validation to positive endeavors...synonym of "YES"..It was also used as an orgasmic expression.
What about "Barbancourt RUM"( an unique SPIRIT brewed in West Indies specially Haiti, Martinique and Guadeloupe...made of a sugar cane and gazoline( I am kidding!!)
What about "GRILLOTS"( a seasoned ####y dish made of dried pork skin made in Haiti)...perhaps similar to grill tofu..\
What about the all concept of posting FRENCH COMMENTS on a 99.9%Blogland English-speaking bloggers.

I have some NyqaPipple pops in the deep freeze, just hope their ready for the game tonight.
They only sell the lift attached to the chair, you have to provide your own boat anchor.
And you know how big girls like to play with hydraulics so don’t skimp and get the deluxe model, go for the one rated “Rosie O Barr Jones” (wait she lost weight and just looks freaky now) “Rosie O Barr Alley”
By the way, Shooter, I think you may have jumped the gun on the Cardinals bye week prediction. I just saw an early line for the Nov. 5th games. The Cards are only favored by 4 1/2 over bye. Not exactly a sure thing.
Shooter-a local scribe here in the East Valley Tribune wrote a piece in this morning's paper entiled. "These guys are who we thought they were."
No telling if Denny will be 'let off the hook' or not. I doubt it.

ShooterB: you da man! You do win the comedic genius award again. Of course you know the old one from the dictionary: "anal retentive" as in he is so full of #### that his eyes are brown now, or his hair has turned from gray to dark brown. OR how about "tweener", once know as tain't as in.....
Miracle, I once visited that Queen Mary ship in Long Beach...and just took a spare anchor they had for that ship. Guy sold it to me for $2. At the time, I didn't really need it...but I figured it was a smart investment. However, pulling it all the way home in my little red wagon was tough.
Chux...we might be able to do a spinoff of this, and call it the "Pig Roaster's Bartender Bible". Where is that splendid swine today anyway?
Ricko...Cardinal fans deserve a good team. Or they should at least allow them to live inside that new stadium. Pitch a tent on the 50 yard line, and catch some sun when they wheel the grass outside. Just feel sorry for the guy that falls and gets stuck underneath it when they roll it back in.
That's where Dr K went! I'll be damned!
Fuzz, wow...a comedic genius award, and my membership card all in the same day. Who could ask for more?
LJ...see, that makes it all worth it. I no longer wanted anyone to be baffled when they heard us idiots babbling about a ####, or Big Bertha.
Glad this counts towards my community service. Now if they would just let me take off this ankle bracelet that shocks me every time I try to leave my house.
Trouser trump--- what the? No...you know what? I don't want to know...
Clearly I'm out of touch...which isn't always a bad thing.
I need to coin one though...my friend used to say, "Pray to Olerud that we win!" But Olerud doesn't do it for me...how about..."Thank Reyes we've got Shooter and his blogosaurus!"
Thank Wright? Thank Piazza?
Good list, shooter. I'll think of one....if it kills me!
Apple #### tarts...well, maybe I forgot that on purpose...but consider it added.
Carolyn, some things are better left unsaid.
And the Blogosaur wouldn't be complete without an addition by CarolynT. I was going to include "verbose", but then realized that you didn't necessarily invent that word. So think, Carolyn...think really hard.
I've got one for you.
"Special delivery" - when CarolynT fantasizes about Mike Piazza delivering pizza to her doorstep
My favortie had to be hi, in the Canadian use. It's about time someone made sense of all this. Now I have a guide for those days that I didn't sleep the night before, then worked all day and can't make sense of anything, much less how fast you guys work on here. Great Work, Shooter!
Shooter: I have one, related to football no less:
"Noll Clone", an animal known to prowl the sidelines of wherever the Pittsburgh Steelers happen to be playing, better known as Bill Cowher as of late.
