I have always been positive that I made up the word "bacne," but I just heard it on a movie! Someone stole my word!
I also take all credit for the words mandles, moobs and murse, but when I tried to submit them to urbanditionary.com they were already there.
Someone is stealing my homemade words.
I love making up words and then using them in every day conversation. Remember that episode of Seinfeld where they were talking about the "Bro," a bra for men? I thought that was an awesome episode. That's kind of like what me and my sisters do. Strange, yes - as is my life occasionally. Here is my dictionary of some of our homemade words. There are definitely more, trust me, and I will add them as I think of them. Please feel free to comment with your homemade words, I won't steal them...I promise. :)
bacne - bac ne, n. Acne on one's back. "Maybe I shouldn't wear this halter until my bacne clears up."
mandles - man duls, n. Sandles worn by a man. "I saw Vinny on Main Street and he was sporting some serious mandles!"
moob - moob, n. Man boob. "Dude, you should really put those moobs away."
murse - murse, n. Man purse. "My uncle rolls with a black leather murse and he is proud of it."
We say "supresent" which, of course, is a surpise present. We have lots of others too, but that one is one of my favorites.
