What A Bomber Muffin Top

Piehole. Man, how I love that word. And it's many variations. Cakehole. Facehole.


It's one of the wonders of language that we can morph variations of words into the definitions of unrelated terms. Hence mouth becomes the words I listed above.


Yeah, there's the opposite end of this word mashup, but this is a family-friendly post:)


Griefbone? Does it represent any specific place on the human body? Or is that just representative of those 'special' places where a punch, a kick, or an errant softball throw causes some extra pain.


Muffin Top. Until a few years ago, if someone said to me 'Check out that muffin top', I'd be looking at the baked goods section. But no longer.


Bomber. Big thing in the air that drops explosive ordnance. Right? Well, not exclusively, as it apparently also can mean 'awesome'...'way cool'...'epic'.


Sick. Also can double for 'way cool', 'awesome', etc...


There is a sort of lyrical beauty to 'old' language, as evidenced in the Coen brother's remake of True Grit, but we modern folks do a bomber job of gettin' all creative with the lingo, I'd say.


Werd.
