Episode 57 - BOOMPF ..."It's Create a Word Day!"

Join me as I talk with Captain Jack and Danielson for over 30 minutes  about a word - BOOMPF -  we collectively brought into existence merely with the socially constructed wags of the tongue - this is the power of the declarative speech act!  To prevent confusion, note that we are birthing the word "BOOMPF" to be distinguished from the words boomp, boomf, and whoomp (feel free to perform your own investigative google searches to flesh out the differences).  After listening, perhaps it might be your turn to invent a word, define it, and share it with the world?  T-shirt ideas:  1) Everyone has a book to write (at least one, right?) 2) Ith (cosmic pronoun) Our New Word: Boompf (noun, adjective, onamonapia-interjection): a surprising and sudden "there it is" completing experience of a pondering thought; an abstraction being realized and manifested in the dynamic now. Side thoughts: altogetherswish, drift-lift (Danielson), covid-sigh (Danielson), druffle (??)
