Verboticisms

Created by: ErWenn

Pronunciation: /ˈbluˌdɒɹ/

Sentence: Some think that bluedar is some sort of magic fuzzy sixth sense or pigcognition, while others claim that it's just a keen awareness of surroundings and good copstincts. But they can't fool me: I know for a fact that there's a powerful, invisible energy that connects all police officers together. It's called...The Force.

Etymology: from blue + (ra)dar

Sentence: Margo was always a bit apprehendsive when she saw cops; flashing blue/red lights; heard sirens or was entered into a police lineup.

So when someone had robbed the local liquor store and was caught on CCT, he/she had worn a long dark wig with pink eyeshadow,lipstick and blouse. After Horatio Crane and his crew had determined that the perpetrator on video, was a man dressed as a women (the prominent Adam's apple and yearning for Barbara Streisand and Bette Midler cds was a always a giveaway), Margo felt a lot less guilty and went out to enjoy the Drag Queen's Ball.
