This is probably bad timing for a bluffing game word when Proof is having trouble attracting limerickers, but I heard about this great word and want to post if for our Bluffing Game. Maybe you've all heard it before. Who knows. But here it is: Snarge

Go to it! Send me a few daffyinitions since I think many are partying instead of Wordcrafting.

Oh...and Geoff...we know you are out there. Send me a daffy about snarge, please?

How's about a few snarge daffynitions? Please? Send them to me by PM.

Well, so far I have a grand total of one daffynition. Get to it, folks!

Well, I have three now, and with mine it's four. Come on, folks. A few more...P L E A S E!!!

As with Proof, I'll post the daffys, along with the real definition, on January 1st. So, for Pete's sake get going people!

Already done my duty - both here and at Moline

Yes, Bob, I got them. Any other takers? I'll post them, along with the real one, on Tuesday.

I'll wait till Wednesday for the limerick game so I won't step on this one.

Well, heck. It's late and I forgot to do this! Go ahead, proof. You post Moline limericks tomorrow, and I'll wait until Thursday for the Bluffing Game.

Here we go!

1) To lunge forward in a warrior pose, particularly used in pilates.

2) Military slang - Situation Normal, All Readings Green - Engage

3) The remains of a bird after it collides with an airplane.

4) A very big snarl. A portmanteau word formed from snarl and large.

5) A piece of material which could cover a woman's cleavage, if she wished, or was removed for the proper occasion.

6) The catch that holds the boot (trunk) shut on a car.

7) A metal baffle used to deflect heat in colonial fireplaces.

8) Pirate gunboat

9) A non-commissioned officer with a bad head cold.

10) Biotoxic effluent

There are some excellent daffynitions here? Which is the correct definition? Start guessing!

I don't know. Are there?

I'd say number ten is logical, therefore probably wrong.

It's the boitoxic effluent from a bird that has struck the windshield of an airplane flown by a woman with exposed cleavage, usually a booby.

How's about a guess, Geoff?

I'm choosing #2.... Even if it sounds like something reported back to the captain by a Blue Meanie on board a Yellow Submarine...

Hey, that was my guess. (Not really, but very funny).

I think no. 9 is kind of funny.

I'm guessing 5. because it doesn't sound like anything something would make up.

Wow...what a diversity of guesses! Anyone else? I will post the real answer, and who came up with these great daffys, this weekend.

Any more guesses?

Here we go...

2) Military slang - Situation Normal, All Readings Green - Engage (Bob; fooled Bethree)

3) The remains of a bird after it collides with an airplane. (real thing! Geoff and arnie got it right; I thought Geoff would, and I knew arnie would. )

4) A very big snarl. A portmanteau word formed from snarl and large. (arnie; fooled no one)

5) A piece of material which could cover a woman's cleavage, if she wished, or was removed for the proper occasion. (proof; fooled Tom)

6) The catch that holds the boot (trunk) shut on a car. (Bob; fooled no one)

7) A metal baffle used to deflect heat in colonial fireplaces. proof; fooled Bob)

8) Pirate gunboat (Bethree; fooled no one)

10) Biotoxic effluent (Bethree; fooled proof)

That is probably even more amusing to those of us of a certain age in the UK. There used to be a (pretty dire but popular at the time) TV comedy here set in an army camp called The Army Game. One of the main characters was a Sergeant Major Snudge.

Yes, I liked that one, as well as the biotoxic effluent. We got creativity with this one.
