I'm Bringin' it Back!

It's well-documented how I've been on an insanely successful campaign to bring the word, "whilst" back into everyday use.

 

My invented word - tharms (when someone has biceps as large (not muscular) as a normal person's thighs) - has not been well-received, but I haven't given up.

 

My attempt to bring back Porch M****y (which was inspired by Clerks II - watch the clip, it's some of the funniest stuff you'll ever see) was ill-advised.

 

I will be choosing my next revival from the attached list:

Lordy, I still use a few of the words on that list, or of a similar ilk.

 

I never realized that "whilst" wasn't used anymore. I still use it regularly.

My votes:

 

7. Barneymugging: sexual intercourse

49. Mustard Plaster: someone who isn't wanted but won't leave.

50. Nerts!: That's awesome!

I remember M*A*S*H's Frank Burns saying that word a lot, but it did not sounded like it meant "That's awesome!".

Everybody who is anybody knows that whilst is enjoying a renaissance through the efforts of someone other than you,namely...me.
