New Words

Words and phrases I claim to have coined

 

Webshite: an apology of, or for, a website, e.g. mine

Emotional incontinence: an inability to keep whatever you are going through to yourself 

I could put 'whatever one is going through...' etc, but that would be unnatural for me. As usual I am talking about my own shortcomings but am happy for other people to borrow the term.

 

If you would like to use these terms perhaps we can get them into the dictionary?
