wordworm

A word or phrase that runs through your head repeatedly, much like the musical 'earworm'.

After reading the line 'let's have a little talk about tweetle beetles' from Fox in Socks by Dr Suess, I said to my friend, 'That's going to be my wordworm today.'

Wordyworm

Someone who diverts attention from the core point in an argument by taking offence or paying excessive attention to the individual words used.

It's similar to the strawman fallacy.

This tactic is quite effective in that the person making the original point becomes distracted and usually ends up forgetting or relinquishing their core argument because they end up addressing the wordworm's objections.

Protagonist:, I think you need to understand why I'm feeling a little upset about (insert issue here). Can you allow me to explain?
Wordyworm: What? you're saying I'm stupid? That I don't understand?

Wordworkers

The authors of found here submit new slang and phrases that are funny, salacious, and very rarely cerebral to add to the Urban Dictionary; the authors are a new generation of wordworkers that create a imaginative retelling of words for a dictionary that is coarsely rambunctious to say the least.

Me: I'm not sure that my current friends with benefits, is actually friends with benefits.
Him: why do you say that?
Me: Well there is no friends part, it's just really hot sex. He is really good at anal.

Him: Oh you guys are just sportfucking.
Me: (Laughing) OMG where did you get that from?
Him: From the wordworkers on Urban Dictionary.
Me: that slang is really funny and indecent!
Him: I think that the point.
