Fun New Words

To all you Scrabble, Boggle Up-Words, Crosswords, and just plain word freaks-
The Oxford English Dictionary has added (or extended/modified) many interesting and colorful (colourful?) words to their ever-growing collection.

Here are a few of my favorite (really the new entries fall under pi-mesic to pleating, the rest are extensions):

Asian pipe snake n.
carpet muncher n.
crunk, adj. and n.
front bum n.
fucking A, adj., adv., and int.
Google, v.
go-to, adj.
ho-bag, n.
Hold 'Em, n.
mash-up, n.
pinko-liberal, adj. and n.
piss-flaps n.
pitchcock v.
pivot foot n.
Play-Doh n.
player-hater n.
PG, adj.
skatepunk, n.
usual suspects, n.
yada yada, int. and n.


(Thanks, BoingBoing)
