But some people are clever. What do you think of these new words I stumbled upon today?
- funtique
- juntique
Some people think that the more exclamation points they use in the ad, the better the turnout. What do you think? Enjoy the hunt out there, folks!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ash!!!!!!!!!!
Could you please!!!!!!!! go and put a deposit on the 9-inch rear end off full size truck!!!!!!!! I don’t know what it is, but I’m sure I need it!!!!!!!!!
Oh, how I hate exclamation points!!!!!!!!! They should only be used in quotations, i.e., “Oh no! A tornado is coming!” They lose their purpose and intent when used indiscriminately. That’s one thing I dislike about “Two Guys Read the Box Scores” – they both use too many exclamation points.
HA! That’s too much. Thanks for the laugh.
Mutti, I had the same reaction to the truck … sounds awesome and terrifying all at the same time. I also love the specificity and marketing finesse of whomever paid for an ad reading “some stuff … ya’ know, like a ring.” LOL
Juntique is my new favorite word of the day – perfect qualifier for some of the “treasures” in Northern Michigan “antique” stores. I’m going to find a way to use it in conversation tomorrow – yes, that’s my goal.
Thanks for the Friday smile, Ashlea! Happy sunny afternoon…
The race for these TC gems is on, Ash! 😉
I just attempted to sell some old baby items at a massive moms’ group flea market. I was amazed by the things people were not interested in at all (e.g. like new bouncy chair) and what people were all over (e.g. pacifiers out of the package, used stuffed animals ~ really???). Who knows, maybe there’s a much bigger market for NASCAR memorabilia than we can fathom.
