Most of you know that I get off on the randomness of language, like those wacky names generated by spam (Bjorn Iglesias) or the ways in which my students attempt to use Spanish/English dictionaries.
Ejemplo: Toco el róbalo. (I play the bass, as in fish.)
Well, the latest random language I’ve been encountering occurs when one attempts to respond to a post on CL. One has to type in two words before CL will let one proceed with whatever it is one is selling, buying, and other verbs.
The first combination to attract my attention was “chests steadier,” which brought to mind the “bro” Seinfeld episode. Anyway, here are some others that struck me as delicious:
billystick icebox
Floridians regroup
Corvette nation
love icily
tool antidread
hump Ralph
fusion rending
Minnelli kneecaps
Mary Mr.
scallops late
tangible grandchildren
poled Jessie
venture Manhattan
using calfskin
glitters Ginsberg
primped bobbling
safer Barbara
knock Bridgeport
Kurt thud
since frisbee
crumpet income
Harvey chuckles
droops Thursday
112 curators
the anointed
Fred surmised
You see, we could combine a bunch of these to form outrageous sentences and/or headlines. I would do some for you, but since we’re spouting this “student-centered learning” claptrap in the teaching world, YOU FUCKING DO IT YOURSELF AND REPORT BACK TO ME.
