NWoTD - Stupiduty

Today's new word comes from the story about the woman who was raped and then arrested and jailed for a four year old bench warrant and denied her second dosage of an emergency contraceptive which has exposed the police and nurse involved to a huge and expensive and totally avoidable lawsuit.

Stupiduty - when doing your job (or doing your duty if that contradicts with your employment) means you have to behave in an incredibly stupid manner.

NWoTD - Fauxmentum

Today's new word is appropriate for how I've been feeling lately.

Fauxmentum - false or untrue momentum. I.e. putting on a happy face for clients while feeling like you're standing on the deck of Titanic and the last lifeboat just cast off.

NWoTD - Valindication

Today's new word is...

Valindication - vindication by validation. For example, when you're having an argument about some point of fact and you know you're right, you look it up on the Wiki and prove your rightness and you have been valindicated.

NWoTD - Camerass

Camerass - (pronounced camer-ass) someone who behaves like an asshole just to get "the shot". The photographer at my brother's wedding a number of years ago was a camerass, he elbowed me in the stomach more than once and I was the best friggin' man.
