BlogFrogisms

Started by KidGiddy , author of Kid Giddy a Division of 2 is Beautiful, LLC 5/18/2010 5:05:28 PM
I posted this in the BlogFrog Community too...but haven't gotten any responses yet...

I just found out I won a BlogFrog t-shirt (thank you!!!)! I'm so excited...but it got me thinking - that we need some blogfrogisms!

I write songs during February Album Writing Month (FAWM.org) and we call ourselves "fawmers". When we are writing we call it "fawming". If you were brand new to fawming - you were a fawmling! So much fun! You can actually read a whole slew of "fawmisms" here.

So how about we create our own list of BlogFrogisms here!

I'll get us started:

Are we "Peepers" (a type of frog that generates a lot of beautiful noise)
Or "Froggers"
and maybe a discussion should be called a "ribbet"?  (a call to the other peeps?)

Add your ism's here...

I love this!  Perhaps we need some incentives...

I love your picks KidGiddy! I can't come up with anything better than those.

I agree! KidGiddy wins the award for creativity! :)

I think discussions should be named calls, and the replies, croaks.  Just seems appropriate, even though they pretty much the same thing, I think.

All the rest are perfect the way you put them, kidgiddy :)

oh, actually, I meant discussions referred to as croaks, and the replies as ribbets
