So let's see some tributes to Rich Hall. I've got a few.
Whamo-holic....The utterly complete lack of skill for throwing a frisbee.
Cornalanche...The inevitable collapse of crumbs when attempting to butter a muffin.
Pete Yornification...the tendency for mainstream music listeners to elevate the merits of indie rock artists or bands who tend to be overinflated only because of the large marketing campaign behind them.
Seacrestering...the self-important act of tricking reality tv contestants into thinking that they will get an answer, only to leave them holding for a commercial...(typically followed by a large collective sigh from the contestants and audience.)

love that word... Reali says that all the time on ATH & PTI
Edit: i should have read down the thread longer, but i've said this in the past too
"the ladies have been checking me out lately.... could it be the 10 push-ups i've been cranking out every other Sunday? - Perhaps!" -Scrubs

"After much thought into this, I have finally come to a conclusion as to why the ‘Meet the Spartans’ commercial is so funny:
It is an interesting choice to have Sanjaya sing ‘I’m not gay,’ as his final words on earth. As he is plummeting into a seemingly bottomless pit, he does not say ‘dear god no,’ ‘I love you mom,’ or even simply ‘argh.’ He instead takes the moment to reaffirm to the world, in spite of their doubts, that he is not a homosexual. Not only that, but he continues to sing, despite falling to his certain death. The distinct lack of plausibility of this situation is what produces giggles from our mouth. It is the antithesis to the belief that ‘it’s funny because it is true.’"

What about dropping the first 's' in the title of this thread? Have many of you heard that? At first, I thought that this thread might have something to do with that.
I guess this this what wiktionary or that urban dictionary site is for.

I make these up all the time.
Here's my wife's favorite.
Anthrapologist. (n). One who makes excuses for the poor taste of society at large.
Call me an anthrapologist, but I can see how people would get sucked into Deal or No Deal.

Wouldn't that be pronounced exactly like anthropologist?

That's just a little colloquial contraction, son. Short for "fixing to".
