Macronesia

All the land in the world.

There is an island group called Micronesia, which causes many to ask why there isn't a Macronesia. Micronesia means "group of small islands". So Macronesia would mean "group of big islands." Continents are essentially big islands, so Macronesia refers to all the continents and so all the land in the world.

I am a citizen of the world. I live in Macronesia.

Abonesian

When your best freind tries reading the word "Abominations" from your Social Studies book but he is autistic and says Abonesians. Also a group of homies which we sleep with and spend our time with.

Nigger 1: Are you an Abonesian?
Nigger 2: Yea bro.
Nigger 1: Lets sleep together

alconesia

1 alcohol induced amnesia - memory loss caused by excessive drinking

2 the terrible feeling of waking up in the morning with a mouth like a mongolian wrestlers jock strap and a massed brass band marching round the inside of your head lying nest to a woman you've never met in your life with no idea how you got there

jesus - i woke up with total alconesia - i set out for my stag party and the next thing i remember was waking up with shaved balls bollock naked in a phone box with a ratchet strap round the door

acronese

Simply, "speaking in, or the language of, acronyms", including the abbreviated jargon of the particular subculture in which the acronymns develop. This results in different kinds of acronese, just like there are different languages. There are also unspoken rules of form in each subculture. So, in the IT world, TLA is a "Three Letter Acronym", but FLA is not a "Four Letter Acronym". That is too obvious, and would violate the unspoken rule that IT people are to look down and intimidate all other lesser mortals as inferior beings. So, XTLA is the proper form, an "Extended Three Letter Acronymn".

In computing acronese, the "IT Ten T" translates as "Moronic User Error". It is written as "ID10T!"
In the early acronese of letter-writing, LOL meant "lots of love". In acronese of social text messaging, it means "Laugh out Loud!" PIMP LOL means, "Pee in my pants laughing out loud!"
