Brandalizing portmanteaus

'Brandalizing' and other portmanteaus Portmanteaus are a fun way of making up new words. Taking two or more words and their definitions into one new word. Spoon + fork = spork Shark + tornado = sharknado They don't have to just describe things either, they can also describe activities. Brandon sanderson a popular american author has made a habit of signing books in airport book stores as he passes through cities on book tours. His fans have coined this activity as 'brandalizing' books, brandon + vandalize. The word portmanteau is itself a portmanteau, it owes its existence to the english inability to speak french properly. English portmanteau luggage which has two compartments and who's name is derived from the french porter (to carry) and manteau (coat). Which seems sensible, except porte-manteau in french actually means coat rack.

LeDrop daggles at the Dojo

Updated: 01 Feb 2014

I filmed myself for the first time while juggling at the Dojo this week :-) I only had 12min battery left so this is what I got after removing garbage (mostly me running after the balls rolling away ;-) ) and keeping moves and tricks that I found interesting. I didn't do any editing and if it happened that the juggling synchronizes with the music, it's just by chance :-) ----------------------------------------- "Daggling" is a portmanteau (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portmanteau) word combining the words "juggling" and "dancing" :-) A popular daggler is the japanese juggler Komei Aoki (maybe he invented the word, not sure though... At least he's the one that uses it and tries to make it popular) check his channel, he is awesome ! : youtube.com/watch?v=pCKCYZk2LHc I also recommend Azerwhite having some fun with Etienne C.: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NEVloroMzes&list;=PL0A6upS6kgxcF8xO9Xu18gqaH_8O-76B2 If you want more 3 balls juggling combining with movements and dancing, have a look at this playlist containing videos of people inspiring me : http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdOB0Je82A-x1hZXDWmtxwyNOJMDgAVkJ Music: Gramatik - Afternoon Soul balls: homemade russian (65g) I bought from a guy at my first juggling convention 4 month ago :-)

I use way too many emoticons and smileys online! They're so addictive and just too cute!!! XD Do you use many smilies, or do you hate all things emoticon? Let me know in the comments! =) ---Some Awesome Videos!--- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZursYvJeb6g How To Get Emoji (Emoticons) On Android http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98PF17U4s4M Go to 2:05 for how to get emoticons on iPhone IOS. ---Cool Stuff--- Origin of the term The word is a portmanteau word of the English words emotion and icon. In web forums, instant messengers and online games, text emoticons are often automatically replaced with small corresponding images, which came to be called emoticons as well. Emoticons for a smiley face :-) and sad face :-( appear in the first documented use in digital form. Certain complex character combinations can only be accomplished in a double-byte language, giving rise to especially complex forms, sometimes known by their romanized Japanese name of kaomoji. The use of emoticons can be traced back to the 19th century, and they were commonly used in casual and humorous writing. Digital forms of emoticons on the Internet were included in a proposal by Scott Fahlman of Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in a message on 19 September 1982.[1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emoticon ---More Awesome Videos!--- If you enjoyed this video, why not check out my others! http://youtu.be/AGd0kyFmGao How To Give A Humble & Genuine Acceptance Speech :) http://youtu.be/POA4lxtWIcs Why Musicals Are Terrifying D= http://youtu.be/NuOnywKQpoU How To Be Unique And Random O.o. ---Credits--- Gold Rush Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
