I like, though "Awkwardology" would be the study of awkwardness. Perhaps Awkwardability as a measure of how easily something makes it to avoid those awkward situations. Same for "KneeJerkology", maybe "KnewJerkability", though I laughed at the definition. Give your defn for "Scabilibilty" maybe it should be "Unscabilibilty". ;)

Unscability: built in flash with a hint of Ruby on Rails. And a dash of blogspot. :O)

Hi Ophelia,
Had myself a good laugh!!
Gumminess strikes home with me. My friend wanted to boost his level on some dating site and convinced me to sign up and friend him. Ever since then, I've been getting email reminders and creepy pokes.
Fleshyness is a close second. The unveiled muffin top is never sexy.

Muffin top! I can't eat muffins anymore. Feels cannabilistic (new word).
You are a true friend to do that for your friend. Now you have to get him to sign up on something equally Gummy for you. Like a cute cat site.

Heres' a new one for Advertising:
"Alexa-paralysis" When websites gives you numbers that don't jive with your numbers. Both parties then go into facial and vocal paralysis. A Stare-Downation happens and only the first one that blinks first looses.

thank you! I also like "SwampThinginess": A blog that sinks to the bottom and comes back to haunt you after you hit it big. Usually a blog written while angry after a bad break up.

HAHA! Awkwardology - absolutely brilliant. There's always that defining work relationship moment when you get the 'friend request' from the boss and that tiny little voice in the back of you head says, "hmmm...do I really want her/him having access to my slightly intoxicated exploits?"
I've experienced this on a few occasions and never had the defining term for it. Again, brilliant! Thanks!

Another term: "FullyDressified" A public profile where you are wearing at least 3 pieces of clothing.
"BWD" Blogging while Drunk. Defying all the odds you upload a post and forget about it until your Boss or ex reads it.

"Fish Eyeballs": similar to "having eyeballs on your site", but with the addition of just plain staring at your site while held captive in a glass bowl.

My favorite was "Lickibility The condition where you will settle for just licking the monitor. Goes for Food sites as well."
It reminds me of that forward everyone sent around that has a pug dog licking the screen. I could do with less Gumminess sites though!

I would start screaming if my dog licked any of my hardware. Dog drool is gooey.
I just got an email from a site that I had ignored for over a year (surprised it was still around) that it missed me. It is creepy when emails like that sound like ex-boyfriends. "where are you? i miss you! come back!" ewww.
Thanks for commenting! :O)

Aw, c'mon. You gotta toss the 'ness' words. I think truthiness both opened and shut that door. Possibly on the same day.

Maybe I should replace it with "tion" Rabidtion Gummition Fleshtion
Actually sounds alot better. or maybe "ounce" Rabidounce Gummounce Fleshounce
Not bad. It's beginning to sound like medication now.
"Can't Sleep? Try Gummounce! Not Chewy, but Gummy!" "Need to loose that extra five pounds? Take Fleshounce!"
Getting better...
Thanks for commenting!

So true. Google, not only in the context of SEO, but in general must be the word of the century.
