Nerd Word of the Day: Aprilfooleryasphyxiation

april-foollery

Aprilfooleryasphyxiation: Feeling of asphyxiation one gets by too much April Foolery.

Due to the EXCESSIVE amount of April Fools jokes I have encountered today, I felt that this phenomenon demanded a word!

Thank you @whitetricycle for the suggestion! :-)

Posted from 30,000 feet.. so I might be a bit light-headed!

Other suggested words: superaprililudification, hyperaprilioxegelis, ApriliFried, April-f’nanigans, Hyp-aprilfoolian-ism, April-Superfluousfoolsery and another favorite of mine - hyperkalendsimbecility.

    Dear Marina,
    The word, “Aprilfooleryasphyxiation” sounds like you’re “all choked up” over April Fool’s jokes. The slang term “all choked up” has the meaning of being very sentimental. For example, I could get “all choked up” to know you’re safely back here in California with us. So, instead of being perjorative, the word could be something nice about April Fool’s day. :razz:
    Yesterday, Capman911 said you were adjusting your videos to teen level. So, will you dress like LA teenage girls this summer? That is, wear high-rise platform shoes with transparent bottoms, wear low-rise Daisy Duke short-shorts with thong underwear showing at the top, wear tiny halter tops held on by spagetti straps, wear only bright red lipstick, and wear all jewelry items made of oversized plastic? (Of course, you would look good wearing almost anything! :grin:

    Apparently, it’s OK for Obama to fire the head of General Motors, but Bush can’t fire his own U.S. attorneys.

    It is generally agreed that the Obama administration’s demand that Rick Wagoner resign as chairman of General Motors is the price of GM’s accepting government money.

    To promote the sales of GM vehicles, Obama says the government will stand by your GM car warranty. And all the taxpayers will get a lube job. The new GM owner’s manual will come with a disclaimer: “Close enough for government work.”…. :smile:

    @Marina, How is this classified as a Nerd word? When I was a techno-nerd, I or any of my fellow nerds ever used this word in Geekenese.

    @Student Body, Yes, Geekenese is a word. Well sort of. Well as much as “Aprilfooleryasphyxiation” could be.

    Geekenese (noun) : The language spoken by geeks or techno-nerds.
    The group of programmers were all speaking geekenese.

  11. Typical cruising altitude on a conventional airliner is between 25,000 feet and 40,000 feet. Lightheadedness is caused by the air in the Earth’s atmosphere which becomes consistently thinner as altitude increases. Read that somewhere on the internet.

    Compare my suggestions, if you will:
    superaprililudification from Latin super- (above, very) + aprili(s)- (April) + ludi- (play) + -fication (causative)
    hyperaprilioxegelism from Greek hyper- (above, excessive) + aprilio(s)- (April) + xegel(ō)- (to prank) + -ism(os) (conceptual/action marker)

    Oh well, can’t win ‘em all—or any of ‘em, in my case… :roll:

    I know I’m probably the only one who hates this word. I’m NOT saying this out of jealousy!!! F’rinstance, the asphyxiation part is atrocious. Suffocation? WTF? Oh my sweet potatoes I’m gonna puke… :mad:
