Very cute! I also like the t-shirt that reads: "physically phitttttt!" You do pretty good with humor, keep it up, my friend. :) Anita

Thank you, Anita. I read somewhere (how does anyone knows this for sure?)that the average tee shirt is read 3000 times in its lifetime. I want to have one printed that reads; "Jesus loves me for no discernible reason" God bless, Dennis

I like that!

Ha, ha. You created four new words, but I don't get number three. Love the other. Excellent beginning to hook the readers. When I first heard of "phatt" several years ago, I thought the language has gone insane. LOL. Good luck in contest.

The language is insane and continues that way IMHO.

This comes from the basic teahing in grade school; i before e, except after c, for i is a salior and follows the c
Now one can be phat and cool at the same time! Thanks for reading and commenting, Dennis

Thanks for explaining. Makes sense now.
Comment from Dawn Munro
This is a very amusing write - you have not listed it as humor, so I do hope you meant it to be, for I would not wish to offend you. My favorite part is under the 'new terms to consider' - "my expert". I enjoyed it very much.

I'm careless about labeling so it's a good reminder from you to do better in that department. Thanks for your not wanting to offend (you didn't) but you must toughen up if you want to survive as a reviewer on FS. Just kidding, stay as nice as you are for many of us need your encouragement. I hereby dub thee; myexpert! GB, Dennis

LOL.

I like your clever list of coined words that relate to reviewers LOL
I detest people who rewrite my stuff, so I love the satire :-)
and of course we all think the one who loves our stuff must be an expert LOL

Comment from AddrieWritesThings
Clever and sarcastic. I love the compilation of "this is how you play on Contemporary English" because it's fun. I especially adore the fact that you refer to a "reviewer who majors on the minors" as an "ibfoure." Brilliant. This writing is full of wit.

Thank you Addie. When I get a review, especially a nice one like this, I always check out the reviewer's profile. I was happy to read you SOS but sorry to see that you hadn't written anything else. So I just want to encourage you to start writing. You are obviously intelligent (you like my stuff is proof) :) and I think you have something to say. Sincerely, Dennis

Well, I personally thought this posting was funtabulous! Your level of thougtology is definitely songworthy. I'm pretty sure most of the reviewers will learn from this and rise ever closer to wisdomhood.
This was terrifilicious! :)

Comment from DIS-illusioned
"New words; it's time!
Etmological Gestation=Word"
Pfft, and they said English was boring.
"In fact, you are phatter than any woman I know!"
My darling wife would shoot me...two more times, after I explained. :-p
"while you are unconscious on the floor"
Ha! She doesn't waste time, does she?
"Reviewer who rewrites your stuff; mommylyrist"
I particularly liked this one.
Good, humorous 'coinages', D. Best of luck in the contest.

Hi Dennis,
This was a hoot and not so far fetched, my friend. It's a good thing your protagonist kept a written explanation on his person. Thanks for this fun write.
Regards,
Lou

Comment from Bloomer Burbs
Hi Deniz22
I'm still trying to get over the idea that, 'phatter' means:
'excellent; first-rate and that it first meant sexy woman!'
As if any man could get away with that, LOL.
If you can I am one of your disciples.
Regards, Pete

It all depends on the regard the woman has for dictionary definitions as you can actually look it up. That may not work with all women, I should be out of the hospital in about a week. Be cautious ... in fact, let it go. Thanks for reading and your comments! Dennis
Comment from Joan E.
Thank you for sharing the result of your humorous, tongue-in-cheek mood. You have so over-achieved for this prompt, I am intimidated! My favorite of your FanStory examples is "mommylyrist"--I have encountered a few of them over the past four years. Best wishes with your contest and in the voting booth with this winning entry. -Joan

I'm afraid I was metaphorical transgender mommylyrist myself when I first came on FS. Hopefully, we live and learn.
Don't be intimidated be challenged and encouraged. Would love to see your new words! Thanks for reading and commenting, Best to you, Dennis
