You remember this guy?
Rich Hall? He had a stint on Saturday Night Live and was also on Not Necessarily the News. That’s where I first remember him using hte term sniglet. A sniglet is a word that doesn’t exist in the dictionary, but should.
For Example:
Carperpetuation (kar’ pur pet u a shun) - n. The act, when vacuuming, of running over a string at least a dozen times, reaching over and picking it up, examining it, then putting it back down to give the vacuum one more chance.
Here is a list of Rich Halls sniglets, good stuff.
