PLUTOED - voted word of the year.

[pacz]

PLUTOED - a word inspired by the downgrading of the former planet - has been voted the 2006 word of the year. The American Dialect Society said the expression, defined as "to demote or devalue someone or something", reflected public reaction to Pluto's fate.

Verb. to pluto someone or something is to downgrade, demote or remove altogether from a prestigious group or list, like what was done to the planet of the same name.

I think "Truthiness" should be the word of the year.

I think it was the word of the year last year.

As if we need to bastardise the English language some more.

I think "plutoed" is a perfectly "cromunlent" word. On par with "embiggen" and "strategery".

Love the Simpsons references.

 

[deerborne]

I'm glad someone caught that one. Leave it to the Simpsons to validate language abuse.
