popcorn-action-flick-y

adj. With lots o' explosions and extra butter.

Real citation: "Good to see so many Wire fans. I love both shows. The Shield is a little popcorn-action-flick-y next to The Wire, but at the same time it is so much better than just about every thing else on tv."

Made-up citation: "My life is neither popcorn-action-flick-y nor amateur-porny. It is somewhat minty."

Hi! You wrote to me a couple of months ago, because I linked to your site and we have similar interests (linguistics and comedy). I never wrote back :(

Erm, to make it up to you, have you heard of this excellent game MooT? Check it out, and join the mailing list for etymology questions. Word Nerds unite!
