Spoonie

A word used to describe a person with a chronic illness, which originated with the spoon theory that helps explain what it's like to have a chronic illness to people who are in good health.

It is very popular amongst people who suffer from P.O.T.S.; Post Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome, which is a form of dysautonomia characterized by many symptoms which includes fainting, extreme fatigue, low bp, fast heartrate, hypotension headaches, low blood volume, exercise intolerance and more. It is chronic and has no known cure although large amounts of salt in the diet, drinking constant fluids, compression stockings, and medications have been known to help with some symptoms.
My favorite spoonie items are compression stockings, shower chairs, and salt tabs :)

Spoony

Spoony is a highly offensive swear word originating from Iran. It refers to an especially hairy individual, with the implication that during the conception of this individual some sperm spilt onto a rug on the floor. The father, not wishing his semen to go to waste, uses a spoon to return the semen to its rightful position, but, in so doing, unwittingly transfers some hair from the rug. Thus, the resulting individual is especially hairy.
