Get the Quonster mug.(1) As a pronominal, former; one-time; having been formerly.
(2) As a pronominal, of an earlier time.
Quondam is pronounced kwon-duhm or kwon-dam. Quondam is an adjective, quondamship is a noun and quondamly is an adverb; the noun quondam is now archaic but can be used in the sense of “one’s ex” and if one is prolific in the generation of quondamship, the noun plural is quondams. As a re-purposed literary word, it has been adapted to the social media age with helpful, non-standard forms coined:
Quondam: One's ex-partner.
Quondaming: The act of dumping a partner.
Quondamed: The act of being so dumped.
Quaondamer: One who dumps a partner (in the form “serial quondamer” applied to those who frequently dump).
Quondamee: One who has been quonadmed by a quandamer (in the form “serial quondamee”, applied to those frequently dumped).
Quondamish: An act which can be interpreted as being dumped but requires confirmation.
Quondamesque: Behavior which suggests having been dumped.
Quondamism: The study of dumped ex-partners (a branch of behaviorism).
Quondamists: A practitioner of quondamism (employed often by internet gossip sites) who can distinguish between genuine quondamees and those exhibiting quondam-like characteristics. The experts have developed predictive models which they apply to work out who is next to be quondamed.

Get the Quondam mug.When a writer forces overly "deep" and dramatic lines into their work purely to be highlighted or shared online, even if the moment doesn't call for it.
Similar to clipfarming, but for literature- manufacturing quotable moments instead of letting them happen at suitable times

Get the Quineste mug.(noun) /ˈkwäŋ-kee/
A quickie that goes totally off the rails.
You start off thinking it’ll be a fast in-and-out, but next thing you know you’re 45 minutes deep, someone’s pants are halfway across the room, and you’re both sweaty, confused, and somehow more into it than expected.
