9 words Jane really wants in the dictionary
Updated | By Diane Macpherson
After a long day, for example, I am a huge fan of placing my threads on my chairdrobe. And when Mike and I started dating we SO used to hyberdate and wait around the phone with such textpectation.
As for the more-often-than-not and totally not on chiptease! - I bet just this long weekend you said: "I can't believe how few chips there are in this huge packet!"
Thanks to urbandictionary.com, words like this may just make it into the Oxford Dictionary one day.
