    A NEW WORD

    Is it possible to add a new word to our vocabulary?

    A friend of mine(and she is a good one) said that " if you smack the forehead of person with the palm of your hand" it is called a KABLOTCHI. This is usually done when the said person is missing the point, or just realized that they just missed the point of the conversation or circumstance. I've seen it for years, I guess nobody has put a name to it up until now.
    What do you guys call this?

    If you do it to yourself it would might come under facepalm. If you do it to someone else it could be assault and battery.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Coke in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride!".

        Is facepalm already in the dictionary? If not, it should be. I mean, "shit" is on the dictionary, but I do more facepalms on a daily basis than the times I go to the crapper.

          We should add Headdesk into the dictionary as well if we were to add Facepalm, as the 2 go so well together.

                I like Zaza. I don't know why you guys have a problem. His posts make my day.

                      I get it, kinda like corpulence but instead of just describing someone as looking fat, it's more like describing someone as looking like a sack of shit. Nice one...

                        I use the words "Fabulastic" and "Fantabulous" quite often. Am I alone on this?
