Whyami

Nickname for the township of "Whyalla", located in South Australia. The town is situated along the coast and has a lovely beach foreshore, with palm trees and warm breeze, giving the place a (very slight) Miami feel. The place is known as a "party town" with many promiscuous single mothers eager to party with travellers, and narcotics are readily accessible.

I am driving to Whyami for the weekend, to pick up some chicks, smoke ice and party, do any of you guys want to tag along?

whoami

A Unix or Linix command that enables distracted postcyberpunk writers to see which username they are currently logged in under.

Once you have forgotten who and where you are, the whoami command is indispensible. I use it all the time.

Whyoming

defn: A place you want to avoid like the plague.

Whyoming, a play on the spelling and name of the desolate state Wyoming, adding a "h" in a proper place, helps ask the eternal question: "Why?"

Wyoming is a cold, very windy, desolate state. It has the least amount of people per square mile for a reason. The largest city is its capital, Cheyenne, which is in the range of 60,000 people (yes, a few universities have more students than that).

In short, though it has a few beautiful areas, it's known to urban and city people as a place to avoid like the plague. Why go to Wyoming when Colorado is nearby?

Whyming

A provincial adaption of a word where "y" or "ie" replaces the last part of the word. It is endemic to Australia and parts of the United Kingdom.

Provincial Australian language often deploys whyming to adapt to the local intelligence quotient (which is low to very low). Words are shortened to accommodate more beer.
Television becomes "telly." Hospital becomes "hossy." Football becomes "footy." Biscuit becomes "bicky." Biker becomes "bikey." Thingamajig becomes "thingy." And so on. It's an appalling yet slightly charming abuse of language.
