The next "hangry" could be...

I've found that the term hangry is appearing more regularly in everyday conversation. For the two of you unfamiliar with the word, it means to become so hungry one becomes angry (yes, a hybrid of angry and hungry). Given the ever growing popularity of hangry, I thought I'd try to get the ball rolling with a few other like terms. For each, I'll provide the definition and a sentence where the words could be used. Here we go...

Bangry: To become angry over a decision made on the reality show, The Bachelor.

Example: "Why in the sam hill did Jake not pick Delilah Doodymix? What the hell, Jake? What is wrong with you?!? I'm so f**kin' bangry right now! Ugh!"


Bork: To become bored while at work.

Example: "Hey, what are you up to? Me? I'm in the office, listening to 'Free Bird,' playing some FreeCell. I'm just so frickin' bork right now, you know? Oh, I gotta go. This hot new assistant just came in and will hopefully unbork me."


Dickelback: Immediate depression when Nickelback comes on the radio.

Example: "It sucks that song had to end. I could listen to 'Barbie Girl' all day every day. It's just so much fun! Wait, what's this? Please no... Yeah, yeah, you really wanna be a rock star. Meanwhile, you've given me a serious case of Dickelback.  Thanks a lot. Where'd I put my happy pills again?"


Drunkident: When one feels overly confident while drunk.

Example: "See that chick next to the bodybuilder-looking dude? I'm so gonna hit that tonight. It's gonna happen. You don't believe? Well, hell, let's get this party started right now. I gotta tell you, I've never been this drunkident before. I'm gonna stumble up to that woman and smoothly slur, 'The Who may have been talkin' 'bout their generation, but with you I wanna talk about penetration.' Yeah, that line works all of the time none of the time, so I'm good to go!"


E-Hornamy: Being horny to the point of creating a profile on E-Harmony.

Example: "I haven't gotten laid in so long. It's gotten to the point where, you know what I'm thinking about doing? I never thought I'd do this. I mean, I've tried the bar scene, restaurants, grocery stores, bowling alleys, Walmart at two in the morning on Saturdays, and nothin'. So, yeah, it's gotten to the point where I'm going full on E-Hornamy. You know, for where my mind's at right now, I'm thinking E-Hornamy may want to change that slogan of theirs from 'Love is closer than you think' to 'Herpes is closer than you think'."


Frihuahua: To fear chihuahuas more than anything else.

Example: "Hey doc, give me something! I've never felt so panicked before! This is the worst case of frihuahua I've ever had! You should have seen this thing! It was at least 5 inches tall, 3 lbs. - so much bigger than my neighbor's scary dog, Little Sh*t!"


Hesisome: Feeling hesitant about a threesome.

Example: "Honey, who'd you say was coming over tonight? Your ex-fiancé, Babbio, the model? Oh gosh, I don't know about this whole deal, babe. I'm really hesisome right now. I mean, what if Babbio gets possessive and pushes me off you with that scarily muscular right pinky of his? What if he gets weird and wants to have a sword fight with me? What if he wins, steroids and all? Let's just call things off with him and go with the safer Plan B option, Charlie Sheen."


Hungroitus: To become hungry after coitus.

Example: "Oh, that was so great, baby. You enjoy that cigarette while I go down to the kitchen to get some food. Are you hungroitus too? I'll get you something if you want. Hey, it's like Sheldon Cooper always said, 'There can be no coitus without hungroitus,' or something like that. He didn't? I swear he did. Well, anyway, I'll go grab some food and then when I come back upstairs, we can Google, 'Coitus with Sheldon Cooper' and see what comes up."


Freemanxiety: The anxiety one feels while listening to Morgan Freeman speak.

Example: "Where did I put my pills? I need some Zoloft! Freemanxiety is not messing around this time! That voice is just so deep, smooth, and calm, it makes me seriously question my sexuality! Crap, I can't find my pills! Maybe I'll just close my eyes, raise my fists, start imitating George's dad from Seinfeld, and see if that works. Freemanxiety now! Freemanxiety now!"


Mini golfous: Feeling joyous at the thought of miniature golf.

Example: "Good morning, sweetie. How did you sleep? I slept great! Why am I so happy? I'm not just happy; I'm mini golfous! I dreamt I was on the 18th green at that place down the road, Four Play and Putt, and got the ball through the windmill, the two dinosaurs, and the Chris Christie mafia statues for a hole-in-one! It was awesome!"

We'll see if any of those terms catch on like Hangry did...

Another look at "The Nightly Show" with Larry Wilmore

After its first week, I gave The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore a B+ grade. While I didn't think the show appeared to be perfect by any stretch of the imagination, I also liked the Daily Show  meets Politically Incorrect vibe I got from it, and thought, with the proper adjustments, the show would indeed provide a great fill-in for The Colbert Report . In the show's succeeding weeks, however, I've been less impressed by it and think that if it doesn't make certain adjustments, it could be in jeopardy of losing many long-time viewers of the show's time slot. One major issue I think the show's had to this point is a lack of direction. It's been unable to decide whether it wants to be a comedy show with serious conversation sprinkled in or a serious show with comedy sprinkled in. It's almost as if the show's writers want to give The Nightly Show a Real Time with Bill Maher feel. The problem with that idea or format is the fact Real Time is an hour lon...

My first book review of "Penetrating the Heart of Life: Ambiguous In Thought, Ambivalent In Feeling"

Well, I received my first book review on this poetry-compilation book I completed and published late last year, but have finally gotten around to marketing now. The reviewer gave it 5 out of 5 stars and said: "I enjoyed the poetic journey the writer has taken me on. From darkest days and hopeful optimism to the conclusion of hope realized. The visual images that the poem titled "Room Temperature" elicits, made me think of the song, "Horse With No Name" sung by the band America. In a similar manner, another poem – "Deafening Sigh-lence" reminded me a great deal of Simon & Garfunkel’s song, "The Sound of Silence". There are so many poems in this book that I related to, that I felt a connection to the author and felt that we were traveling on this journey together." http://www.lulu.com/shop/craig-rozniecki/penetrating-the-heart-of-life-ambiguous-in-thought-ambivalent-in-feeling/paperback/product-18677501.html

A closer look at the Scramble With Friends power-ups

I am unashamed to admit that I'm a nerd. My idea of a good time is playing a word game like Boggle or Scrabble. Thankfully, I (and many others) can play such games via Facebook and/or my (our) cell phone(s). While it seems that cheating has become more commonplace in these games (Words With Friends in particular) than San Diego has had nice weather, I've yet to give in to that craze. One element present with the game Scramble With Friends (Boggle) not present in Words With Friends (Scrabble) are legal boosts called "power-ups," which cost a number of tokens from the 15 available. I've now tried all five power-ups, including the latest one which costs money. So, in case anyone's curious about playing the game or giving these power-ups a gander, here's a rundown of them all: Freeze - I think this is probably my favorite of all the power-ups. With the freeze, time stands still for a matter of seconds, which allows you more time to find words and improve...
