I went right out and bought this book, in hardback no less. Coupland is one of my most favorite authors. Microserfs is a desert island book for me.

Logophile's Orgy
- Shiny
My most favorite and often used word. It's actual definition is fine, but I have expanded its' use, to fit my whims. - Monkey
This word just makes me happy. Spoken or written it makes me smile. - Fetish
Sounds just a little bit dirty and fits it's definiton. - Velvet
sexy, classy, with just a hint of smut. - Smut
Short and to the point. - Bastinado
It sounds so cool, like one could "Dance the Bastinado all night long." but it's actually a nasty bit of torture. Considering some of the shoes I've worn dancing, perhaps once can "dance" the bastinado. - Divot
This is a new word that has worked it's way into my daily vocabulary. I totally ignore the golfiness of it, and have made it my own. - Cookie
Happy sounding, and good thing to call someone when you have forgotten their name. - Fathom
Just say it out loud. - Panties
This word is currently in favor. Its both bitchy/silly "Don't get your panties in a bunch" and smutty/silly "I'm not wearing any panties." A very useful word if you ask me.
