This is my first try. Although English is not my mother tongue, I enjoy to create new words in English. I image a monster who is grinning with pleasure after eating lots of sweets. So I want to call the guy on the illustration 'Monsugar'. - kokorin, 2006-12-17: 09:50:00

aw, someone already made "Gluephoria"...why can I never think of something original? It always seems like someone beats me to the punch...I guess I should get up earlier. :D
warped - 2006-12-15: 12:53:00
btw, There's no way to change/retract a word, is there?
Hi warped, Not yet... but soon! ~ James
Seems the early verb catches the worm voting wise, eh?

Woohoo! I made a 100% unique word :D Get in ;)
