booring

A splice of the English 'boring' and 'boor.' This delightful wordplay, suggests the combination of extreme boredom and a kind of passive rudeness that is so contemptuous as to make one wish to vomit. Syn: passe ennui.

That post-Lacanian treatise on Freud's top-left underwear drawer was so 'booring' as to make me vomit.

Pope bowling

Illegal sport where the player's main aim is to tackle the pope to the ground. Bonus points are awarded for taking down his entourage. The sport reached its peak when Susanna Maiolo tackled Pope Benedict XVI before the Christmas Eve Mass in 2009 - taking down three others. Two more joined the pile to assist the Pope, scraping her a final score of 280.
Scoring:
Pope knocked down= 50 pts
other knocked down = 10 pts
score is multiplied by total amount of people in pile
people who aren't knocked down but end up in the pile are worth 0 points, but are added to the multiplier

- "did you catch the Pope bowling over Christmas?"

- "yeah that Susanna Maiolo's the best Pope bowler"
