Update for males

A male told me that I can claim other words that are not on the verb-pate system for myself. For example for female ejaculation/alien goo that deposits on a gusset, I claim “clittylitter”.

Same male also told me to not spend any more cash on applying for pates, as I merely have to apply to the OED for inclusion. He cites “cowabunga” and “brexit” as words that were included and with my words being more impressive and best anyway, I should go down this route.

I’d feel guilty about taking your high offers with this in mind gents as I’m a solid rotary club member with strict morals.

Plagiarism of epic proportions from The Apprentice thread.

Which is exactly the point I was making. Do keep up and try to add something helpful.

Nope, don't buy it, your thread title says words you have made up, not knickered from somebody else.
Do you need help with the big words? Read my last post for a development on the rules/regs.

Regardless of it’s origin i had never heard of clittylittet and now my work colleagues are staring at me as my screen is covered in the toast that came out of my mouth whilst laughing!
Glad it served a purpose, see there is a market for new words, despite those of the smaller brain variety not being able to read simple text and whinging about the origin.

Apparently it is difficult to "own" a word, just saying "this is mine I want paying" is not enough it transpires, as everyone has free control over their vocal chords and ability to form sounds which could, theoretically, make a new word.

Infinite monkeys and infinite typewriters comes to mind...

Anyhoo, cheers for the respect, Ern.

Got to go, Mum says my porridge is ready.
Yeah, probably best. Resorting to saying "it was all a joke" to cover up ineptitude is, while a classic tactic, riddled with the hallmarks of a thicko.

No hard feelings.

Can we get back on topic now?

For a man who invents and sells words I must say your insults are pretty lame and, might I be as bold to say, very predictable smile
The very fact you take my comments as insults says more about you than it does me. Especially as yours are the oldest and most predictable tactic in the book.

Best you shuffle on now.

Update

I have not managed to garner interest in my words from either the private or public sectors and therefore have lost confidence in what I was told by the chap.

I no longer believe that it is possible to sell words one has made up, despite the philanthropic intention.

I’ve raised this thread to “one insult ban” reaction so please keep it civil.

OP, if someone buys a word from you but subsequently finds they do not have the vocal gumption to be able to pronounce it, are they entitled to any sort of refund? An exchange for a word less challenging to their lacking literacy skills?
Sadly as I said above I have left the world of vocabex and my pursuit of wealth must continue on another path.

Sometimes there comes a time in life that you have to abandon a dream. Dreams I have abandoned include celebrity resurrection, my own Gaelic military hat design, my business idea of selling nano cache containers as ejaculate holders so customers could be close to their roots and the ultimate answer to warm lounges, my window painting firm.

There is a dream that will come true for all of us, males, so keep it up and don’t give up on what excited you as a child, in your formative years and as a young adult.

It is in you.

Dig deep.

FIND IT

Earlier this evening I read a Dr Zeuss book to my 8 year old (she's a bit retarded) on finishing I announced "That man must have made a fortune writing completely meaningless nonsense"

My 8 year old said "it's his simple use of the anapestic tetrameter, daddy, silly"

I don't know what st they teach kids these days.

But seems to me someone's making money making st up.
I appreciate your empathy, fellow male. Whereas I arguably offer more to humanity with me vocabulary broadening entrepreneurial acumen, it seems a cat in a hat is what the public wants.

I’m dissspointed but as an alpha my cup is half full.

Nope. My thread. You’ve already proved yourself to be a thicko months ago when it was in its hay day. Why did deeper in a futile attempt to troll?

Let’s be civil.

Sorry, but that is not under your control.

Site moderator.
It is. It is unpoliceable but it is under my control, this thread has added a lot to the site and I’ve had many questions about it.

Thanks for announcing yourself as such though, keep up the good work.

Do you, again, need help with the big words? Please try to keep on topic and not derail an intellectual discussion.
