The other day, a Palin supporter on a CBS site coined the word "glear"
...to describe the expression on Katie Couric's face throughout her interview with Palin.

Wouldn't you say that McCain was glearing all throughout last night's debate?

1. a combination of Gleeful (that she did so bad) and Fear (that she's a heartbeat away?)
wow - if that's what a Palin SUPPORTER was coining to describe Courics expression, imagine what the rest of us thought it was....

:rofl:

2. Or "glare" and "leer". Who knows?

The Freepers have come up with some great ones: "moran", "screwn", "casting asparagus"... Some of these I've actually added to my own vocabulary because they're so awesome.

ON EDIT: I'm series!!11!1

5. Ah . . . you bring back one of my mother's favorite usages:
That Phi Beta Kappa languages major used to say "casting asparagus" all the time. :)

That's a nice Saturday morning memory of her.

6. If it's as entertaining as "glear" or "screwn", I'll be happy to!
And I'll even give you credit for it!
