Because there is free speech in this country, I have taken it to heart and have created my own words. "Cuter" is just my way of saying cute, although I have gotten into trouble with this one. Picture this:
Two friends at my house, one I met recently, and one I have known for years. We will call them Susie and Brenda, Susie being the newer friend. Susie is picking up her children from my house, and wearing a really pretty white blouse.
K: "Hey Susie, nice shirt." K turns and says to Brenda, "That would look cuter on you."
OOPS! Of course Susie thought I meant she didn't look cute in it, not knowing my "Noserisms". Insert backpedaling on K's part.
"Woogy" describes how you feel upon entering a plane and have a nasty time with airsickness, or when you feel the flu coming, woogy.
I know there are more, none of which I can remember now. Blogger block.

Not that all of these are made up, mind you...just Noserisms that have been permanently ingrained into my vocabulary. And I think not making up your own words is kinda quimby.
I LOVE the word Quimby!
Bootched is mine, tho, I thought of it at 3 this am.
Fishbrain--yeah, guilty, also fishbag, but potlikker is Doug's-I think he got it from Huck Finn.
Heh Heh

Almost as good as the Towns of Intercourse and Paradise PA, just down the road from me.
Shut UP!
And then there's West Chester PA, where there is a High St. and Gay St. The only town in America where you can go in High and come out Gay.
