"You, my friend have been shmeklenized"

By GottaLaff

The Mudflats has a hilarious post up about a reader who claims that LipSchmutz McWTF punk'd everyone, because, see, "mandation" is a real word. How does the reader know? Well, pfft, because the word was defined in the ever-reliable Wiki Answers!

It's safe to say that McWTF's followers are just as well-read as she is:

In the wee hours of the morning, I got this little gem in the moderation queue from someone in or around Salem Oregon, who calls themselves “AKReport”

Sorry AKM, Palin just punked you. mandation is a word, moron.

mandation: “another form of involuntary servitude”

1 : a condition in which one lacks liberty especially to determine one’s course of action or way of life
2 : a right by which something (as a piece of land) owned by one person is
subject to a specified use or enjoyment by another

Ohhh, my friend…

Anyone familiar with dictionaries, and wikis will know immediately why I got such a good chuckle over this one.

Mudflats had a lot to say, a must-read lot to say in fact, but finally responds with this:

You, my friend have been shmeklenized.

verb -Shmeklenize -d
1. To be revealed on a blog or social media website site as having made embarrassing and false accusations based upon knowledge obtained from a wiki.
2. To insult someone in a manner in which you, yourself are guilty.

syn. - sproinked, flubbugated, bloamed

My new favorite word: Shmeklenized. Although "sproinked" is right up there.

Now go read. You'll be glad you did.
