*** The Official "I-made-this-word-up" thread ***

most of us at one time or another have made words up together with their meanings - here is mine to start things off . . .

Discombooberated! - which (when I was about 6) meant that I was KNACKERED!!!!!

Please post your made-up-word and (if it has one) its meaning.

This should be funny!!!
