What is funny now is that we seem to be revisiting the whole panoply of situations described. Language is still needed though.
In the mid to late 1990s, several friends and myself attempted to develop some language for the things that we were identifying. We called them "Afrolisms". After coming up with about 125, we tried to get them published and it did not work. No publisher was interested. At the time, dictionaries for all types of stuff were out but alas no takers.

Analog - The Anti-BlogBy "Analog" I am referring to the adjective (i.e., relating to or using signals or information represented by a continuously variable physical quantity such as spatial position or voltage) and not the noun (i.e., a person or thing seen as comparable to another) for I wished to give voice to my thoughts which have come to me in a more or less continuous manner but which do so in a way that is not consistent in content or form. Thus you will see short stories, brief thoughts, haikus, low-kus and even a political cartoon or two. Archives
