Great etymology. You captured the unnecessary and impolite aspects of the definition swimmingly! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-21: 13:16:00

Wish you had finished and given us a sentence and etymology. Your verboticism is good, but it would be better if you polished it off with the rest! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-21: 21:04:00

Too easy, I know. - ErWenn, 2008-02-21: 00:08:00

Maybe it was easy for you, but I'd have never thought of it! When I read it I erupted in loud laughter! You have taken gross humor to new heights ... or should I say watery depths! Kudos for your extraordinary sentence and an ingenious verbot! Excellent! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-21: 02:17:00

how much water would it take to hydro fill a yak? very nice! - galwaywegian, 2008-02-21: 06:22:00

Splendiferous verboticism!! - Mustang, 2008-02-21: 07:20:00

The "too easy" was referring to the word. I've always been a bit of a liquiphiliac (though my drink of choice used to be soda, before my dentist showed me what I was doing to my walle-I mean teeth), so I've had years to refine that fish/horse joke; if it's not funny, I need a new hobby. - ErWenn, 2008-02-21: 21:25:00

Excellent. - OZZIEBOB, 2008-02-22: 00:11:00

Mis-spelt the word. Should be hydroplonk. Hydro - water powered. plonk - to be a plonker. Worried that he would dry out completely the hydroplonker persistently pursed for hydro power. - trueblue147, 2008-02-21: 19:43:00

Is hydroplonk related to hydroplonic? Good one! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-21: 20:39:00

You might like to know there's an 'edit' button at the bottom before 'comments and points' ... and early on there's a 'change spelling' button too. Hope this helps you. - silveryaspen, 2008-02-21: 20:42:00
