What's _YOUR_ Definition?
Okay, I thought up a game last night... One person posts a word or phrase... then another (or others) post a definition of the word/phrase. (A made up definition, not a real one.) Then someone else posts a word/phrase.... and so on and so on...
Okay... here we go:

contact - noun. a general perception of consideration that is used by prisoners.
Martha Stewart undoubtedly was treated with a lot of contact while she was in Camp Cupcake. She did, after all, teach her fellow inmates to forage dandelions in the prison yard, and put on a lovely dandelion tea party afterwards.
Even the inmates who did not care for the dandelion tea, contactfully stated, "Martha dear, I've never tasted anything quite like this", before spitting it out once her back was turned.

Oregano...
The former term used for the art of folding paper into intricate designs. The Italians got upset, though, because they had just named their favorite spice that name, so they were traded pasta noodles (to soothe their sensibilities) and the term was changed to "Origami."
