    "Paradacs" is "paradox."

    I don't know how they come up with these genius translations.

    Spelled bean, pronounced ban.

    Oh and your 'mare' is spelled mear.


    Pedantry win.

    I make up my own words.

    'Scrumbling': To pick scabs off a cat.

    I'm just scrumbling Mr. Tibbs - he's been fighting again.

    I call shenanigans on that. You stole it from either this or this.

    No shenanigans I assure you Sir.

    Scrumbling just sounds right for picking scabs.

    And it's all mine.. mine .. mine

    Well I'm stealing it. My other post was just to keep you occupied while I emailed the Oxford Dictionary, Stephen Fry and Martin Amis.:P

    No need for theft. There's no copyright on 'scrumbling' so my only potential payment will be the satisfaction I might derive from it if it ever became common parlance.

    'Scrumbling' is my gift to the English language. :pac:
