word play
Came across a made-up word in the course of work: PIFFED.
Methinks it's the evil love child of PISSED and MIFFED. And distant cousins of SPIFFY [very good word to describe gay men] and SQUIFFY [which always crops up when I've had champagne and feeling, well, squiffy].
But hot lingo of the week has to be MUFFIN TOP, which so graphically describes the blubber that bulges out everytime I pull on my now-too-tight jeans and attempt to sit down.
