Geoff sent me a link to this virtual linguist
site , which I think is pretty cool. However, from it, I was interested in this UK usage of
whinge-o-rama . I haven't heard it before. Have any of you?
Member Nope
Member No. I have seen the '-orama' formation used fairly often, though. As the blog entry indicates that sort of construction is mainly used in nonce words.
Build a man a fire and he's warm for a day. Set a man on fire and he's warm for the rest of his life.
Member Well it was your own Boris Johnson who used the word.
Member I saw that but old Boris is a Buffoon of the first order.
Member Much like our new president...
Speaking of which,
this is pretty funny.
