Latinus sopherdickosuckullentus

A nerdy đŸ¤“ term used to call someone DISGUSTING IN a way of weirdoticity
My bully is a Latinus sopherdickosuckullentus
sophers is one of them cool nerds. Has sophers reached first base?? More like 0.5 (some cheeky cheek action). Her hair is definitely NOT BLONDE. Sophers comes with a bit of an unhealthy obsession with any fictional character and is incapable of emotions towards any living person. Did someone say Draco Malfoy??? If you go on holiday with sophers expect her to come back a different race. Be careful... if u wake sophers up in the morning u may experience her night bangs. Does Sophers want a boyfriend? No. But does Sophers really want a boyfriend? Yes. Sophie may or may not have a fetish for your younger brothers...
"Where's sophers??" "she hasn't left her house in 6 weeks..."
"did u see sophers profile pic on the uni call?" "yh what was that"
"i wanna hold hands with sophers but shes never experienced that much sexual tension and i dont want to scare her"

Shopherding 

Verb - The act of using subliminal verbal and physical techniques to steer a person or partner towards the checkouts in a shop to prevent a prolonged and boring shopping experience.

If practiced and mastered the art of shopherding can save hours of walking round in shops after people. The successful shopherder knows his art and will begin before any shop has even been entered.

Techniques are varied, performing a fart and dart and then moving towards the checkouts will cause the target to join you close to the tills, perhaps bringing about payment and thus victory. However, this can cause so much disgust that the period of time within the shop may be extended by the target as revenge. If this happens further shopherding efforts must be more subtle to avoid suspicion.

A favourite among master shopherders is the technique of placing oneself in the centre of the targets field of vision as she looks round the shop to distract her and coupling this with a focused and interested stare towards something near the checkouts, redirecting her attention that way.

Punishment for being discovered a shopherder is serious, the techniques will no longer affect the target and the disgraced shopherder will be forced to wonder around countless shops for hours, cursing his own lack of skill or bad luck.

The path of a shopherder is frought with perils but the pride of succeeding is surpassed by the prizes that victory holds.
Man - "Shall we go look at the socks?"
Girlfriend - "Ok, where are they?"
Man - "Over by the tills"
An entry level but classic shopherd manoeuvre.

Keeping his girlfriend directly between himself and the checkouts, smoothly shopherding her towards the tills the accomplished shopherder skillfully prevents the onset of Shopping Legs.
