Get Webster on the phone
Last night I spent over an hour looking at Way to Suck That Dick. It's sort of a "horrors of amateur pornography" blog. My reactions oscillated beyond abject terror and milk-shooting laughter. Some times at the same time. Then I decided there should be a word for that, a work meaning both terrified and amused. I propose "cringesteria". I think it should be an actual word. Let's get on that.

I often make up words (most recently: Horritrigued) and I just start using them as though they were real words. I figure as long as I have a definition, as you do for this new word, it counts. Quickest way to get them to add a word to the dictionary is to get it out there in use. I'll start using cringesteria right away.
Hi, I just stumbled on your blog using the "next blog" button thingy. Glad there is someone else out there who realises blogs about someone's family are only of interest to it's members, and even then, probably not much seeing as they were "there at the time".
Cringesteria. I shall add it to my vocab.
Ta!
