Renaissance Fryday

A day set aside to be nice to a friend who is feeling down, observed on the third Friday in October.

Etymology: derived from "Renaissance," a program in which students with good grades receive gifts from local merchants; + (French) "fry," because the event which inspired Renaissance Fryday took place at a McDonalds that gave free French fries to students in this program; + "day." "Fry" and "day" were combined into one word to resemble the word "Friday," since said event occurred on a Friday (10/15/1993).

Happy Renaissance Friday! I'm sorry your girlfriend just broke up with you. Let's go get some burgers.

I feel sorry for Joe. He quit his job and moved to Los Angeles because Jane was moving to Los Angeles, then Jane met a guy down there and Joe hates it there. He put all his sperm in one basket.

(the example should include "put all one's sperm in one basket" verbatim, but that would be bad grammar, so I have to write it somewhere)

fruitdog

Melancholy; sad; gloomy.

(Derived from observing that "melancholy" is an unusual word; the first syllable sounds like "melon," which is a fruit, and the second sounds like "collie," which is a dog.)

"I think I'm just going to go home," he said. "I'm feeling kind of fruitdog today."
