What a fun thread!!
Speaking of frustrated. We once had a superintendent (15-ish years ago)
whose favorite term for frustration was "flustrated"!! I've heard it so
much lately I wonder if he coined the term and it is now a part of our
language! We also had a teacher by the name of "Laster" that he always
called "Lassiter"...
I started using the term "kajillions" (definition: more than a million
million) about that many years ago and told the students I invented the term
and wanted them to use it and try to see how long it would be before we saw
it in print. It was found in a newspaper within four years. A mere
coincidence perhaps, but was a fun project.
