Oh crap—I don’t know what Clodpoll means!! ;-(

I never met a clodpoll that was incomplete.

Just keep those earbuds in and ignore him.

He’s such a plopmuffin.

The first known use of the new word “clodpoll” was in 1601.

Last known use after that was 27 min ago

LOL Learned a new word. I might use it on someone who has the nerve to disagree with me on goComics.com !

These comments are pure neologism.

Thank you for enriching our lexicons, Tony.

Ever been in a complete joojooflop situation? :D :D :D

Well you don’t need to be a “thesaurus” about it

Eschew obfuscation.

I just make up a new acronym and use it right back at them.

I’m too much of a schleprock to look it up

Now WE have learned a new word.

Ha! What balderdash!

Yep. Most people expect others to have the same level of knowledge and understanding that they do. If someone else doesn’t understand something we do, it’s common to call them an idiot. If someone understands something we don’t, it’s common to dismiss them as an arrogant know-it-all. Either way, we treat them with disdain.

Clodpoll?
