Some people need a word for the day to make the radio sauces slide briskly from under the toilet canopy. Well in my professional opinion, \u201cbird\u201d is not<\/strong><\/u><\/em> the word. No, rather the word for today (or any other day) is \u201cbloop.\u201d Sometimes it’s used as an exclamation, as in the case of dropping something in the water. An example: remember that one time I was with Uncle Bribblet on the dock at Zooper’s Pond? He handed me this awesome looking smellphone he just bought and went up to the house to get seconds on Aunt Meebee’s refried cabbage sticks. When he came back, I had some bad news for him: \u201cSorry… I had your new iPhone 27 held tightly in my grubby little mitts, but as I was leaning over the dock I was distracted by the freshwater hexagonal stickfish and BLOOP!!<\/strong><\/em> into the brackish water it went. I was able to get it out and I tried to dry it off in the fire, but it started to fizz and make weird popping noises.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Uncle Bribblet was not amused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because I enjoy learning more about words and other household temperature measuring cups, I decided to scan the interwebs for any additional applications of the word \u201cbloop.\u201d <\/strong><\/em>Lo and behold, there was one I had never heard of before. According to Wikipedia, \u201cBloop<\/strong> was an ultra-low-frequency, high amplitude underwater sound detected by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration<\/a> (NOAA) in 1997.\u201d Initially it was thought to have originated from a marine animal, but it was later determined to be sounds from glacial movement or by \u201cseabed gouging by ice.\u201d Well now that’s just plain fascinating!! If only I was there to enjoy the bloopening!! Perhaps I could have gotten an autograph from one of the underwater sound detection technician people persons!! Or not!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bloop also appears in baseball, when a batter smacks a ball just beyond the infield. And then there are bloopers in film or other video media in which mistakes are made and are presented to audiences for the humor of it all. And then there’s the use of bloop<\/strong> to describe a noise made by an electronic device. So yes, goys and birls, I’m stealing all these inflammable regressions from the webbernet dictionary website definition place things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Being the drebnerflooted person I am, I have sometimes been known to utter a short, high-pitched, low volume \u201cbloop!!\u201d <\/strong><\/em>for no apparent reason. This serves no other purpose than sheer amusement for me and anyone nearby who happens to hear it. I’ve also been known to utter other inconomulous strebulations like \u201cflarf!!\u201d <\/strong><\/em>or \u201cmozzbop!!\u201d <\/strong><\/em>and perhaps even \u201chookonk!!\u201d <\/strong><\/em>just to perplex my grandsons and any other young or otherwise height-challenged lifeforms that happen to be within earshot. Of course, few of the \u201cwords\u201d you just read are real; but hey, if you can’t have fun langling manguage, I mean, why squish the Twinkies on the sidewalk? Right??<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course it is!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lastly, but not in the least indivisible, is the (not very) famous poem that includes the bloop as a sound made from mergling.<\/p>\n\n\n

Well there you go. These days, there are many things we could cry about, but sometimes it’s important to laugh with very big harroo while you have a big mouthful of macaroni and cheese. I hope you find a word for your day, whether it is \u201cbird,\u201d or \u201cbloop,\u201d or even something highly technical like \u201cwozzpoffle.\u201d In the meantime, may your nostrils be free of burrowing insects, and may your garments be forever stain resistant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
