Comment Of The Day: Made Up Words Edition-July 2024

Image for article titled Comment Of The Day: Made Up Words Edition

I love made up words. I occasionally make up my own words, but it’s even better when I find a made up word I’ve never made up before. Especially when it’s related to cars. Some of the world’s greatest made up words are multi-word portmanteaus. Like “quatrofolienflameblowupanello”. Excellent made up word.

Oh yeah, that’s the good stuff. Almost as good as the classic episode of The Simpsons in which the titular family travels to Italy to pick up a new Lamborgotti Fasterossa.

Congratulations to the Goat for winning today’s COTD, simply by dint of a glorious made up word. Language is malleable, and quatrofolienflameblowupanello is the perfect proof for why the best way to use language is to have a little fun with it.

It Looks Like Tesla Will Attempt To Set An Absurdly Specific Record At The Ring With A 7-Seat Model S
While pretty much all of the recent obsession with setting Nürburgring Ring lap record times and the rivalry between Tesla and Porsche is sort of idiotic genital-measuring, there is one foolproof way to guarantee that a record will be set: make the criteria for the record so specific that...
