Bunker-bombing

What big ploppy raidrops do as they break througth the crust of a drought- hibernized soil

"It's pissing outside, first storm of the rainy season and millions of big, ploppy raindrops are bunker-bombing themselves into the drought-hibernized ground, busting up its crust to release the smell of petrichor."

perhapponism

A perhapponism is a fear of something that may happen in the future, but which is magnified out of all proportion so that it dominates all your thinking.

I keep on having a perhapponism that if I do go on a walking safari in Africa it will be my last. I know it's irrational to think this because the safari guides have all got rifles and there aren't any really dangerous animals where we would be going anyway.

Quantizement

"Quantizement" (or quantisement with UK spelling) is the process which happens when one person's (or entity) thoughts are immediately known to another person (or entity), but without any form of written, verbal or other means of physical communication being used. The process is so rapid, happening with a zeptosecond (which is one trillionth of a billionth of a second), that it seems as if the generation and receiving of the thoughts between the two separate consiousnesses are simultaneous.

This girl, standing in front of him, here on the terrace, hadn’t spoken. Yet, he knew exactly what she was thinking. Her thoughts were flickering in his consciousness exactly as they were forming in her brain. And that kind of temporal connection and quantizement shouldn’t be possible, unless it was happening in close to Planck time, or at least in zeptoseconds.

second bestness

Second bestness is when you know you are not the first choice if somebody asks you to be someone (wife, husband, girlfriend, boyfriend) or to do something (i.e. become the boss). You know that someone else was first choice and altough you accept the offer, it rankles and stays wth you forever, turning you into a bitter, overbearing person.

"I think Mum's feeling of second bestness is why she's always so horrible to me - knows Dad wanted to or should have married someone else."
