Word Verification Balderdash


Word Verification Balderdash is a weekly meme hosted by Sheila at One Person's Journey Through A World Of Books.

Here is what you do. You write down all the word verifications you come across as you are posting comments on other peoples blogs. You then play Balderdash with them. Now for those of you who don't know how to play, you take a made up word and come up with a authentic sounding definition for it. Do this for a week and then post your best ones every Thursday.

Here are mine for this week.

Puccalop: Small, water dwelling nature spirit from northern Ireland renowned for pulling unwary swimmers around by their big toes for at least 22 minutes. They are also overly fond of blackberries and can be bribed to carry passengers across large bodies of water by offering said blackberries.

Hyscent: Hippie term from the 1960s and 1970s that referred to scents, odors that would cause an LSD flashback.

Wergra: Related to werewolves and weretigres the Wergra is a shape-shifting giraffe. Only on nights of the quarter moon will the poor victim of this affliction turn into the vicious Wergra, half man/half giraffe.

Subrip: Small tract of land between the Saharan Dessert and Sub Sahara Africa. Know for it's unusual wildlife it has become the home of the few Wergras known to exist.

Crubb: Large circular crib designed to hold several chubby babies at one time. They can range in size from as small as a Volvo to as large as a Hummer.
