Who says you can’t make up words?
You know I love the comics and their freedom with words. Recently, “Get Fuzzy”, written and drawn by Darby Conley, threw in some original words. Bucky Katt came up with ruddite, meaning “a rude luddite”. Then added dimpid (dim and stupid), and ugloying (ugly and annoying), before Rob asked, “Are you smelliotic then?” Figure it out! Then go on and make up your own new words. That’s the US-language way!
