fritzed up

"Fritzed up" is just a G-Rated way of saying "fucked up."

Just the other day, I heard a little kid, probably in first grade, say to his mom, "My shoes are all fritzed up, I want some news ones."

The confusing place many of us end up visiting several times a day, or the feeling that we get...when and where people say things that are meaningless to us. Our language changes on a dime these days, and being lingodark is the result.

coronaphoner

A coronaphoner is a very modern phenomenon triggered by the heinous virus. An interview by a journalist conducted from afar is termed a "phoner". An interview conducted from any distance, but now via cell phone to maintain social distance, is a coronaphoner.

Sonomacana

A genre of popular music "indigenous" to Sonoma, California. Originally populated by Native Americans, there is no record of the music original to the area that remains. Sonomacana is the type of music one now hears there, a hybridization of many types and styles, from blues to rock and roll to folk to jazz. Nowhere is such a wide variety of genres kept alive as in Sonomacana.

"What kind of music to the band play?" "They are all over the place, truly Sonomacana."

Sonny do's

When your elderly mom or dad hands you a list of some chores or light maintenance work to do around around their house, it is a collection of "sonny do's".

I need to go to my mom's for the weekend, she has some Sonny do's for me.
