Oh Gee... kinda wish I'd never heard of Urban Dictionary now... just looked up a couple of things I read in a Ben Elton novel once and yuk... in fact mega yuk.
I also looked up newshoney which as yet doesn't have a definition - though it does define "newsbabe" (to which variety I do not belong, I was behind the screen brains, not on-screen 'talent')...
and "newscandy":
"Insufficient morsels of news meted out by journalists of TV and radio. Often simply a headline and one paragraph's worth word-count, so that they can pile on as many little anecdotes as possible between traffic reports, witty banter, and advertisements, and repeat them every half hour for the short-attention span crowd. Watching CNN Headline News is pretty much just getting newscandy. " (we had a slightly less pretty word to describe at)

I have to say the one that made me chuckle was the multitude of definitions for wolfbagging.
Granted they all say the same thing - but read the first and last one.
The first actually explains it quite well - like a tutorial, the last one I just burst out laughing - kind of a just do it type scenario. Too funny

Makes you wonder though... how degraded and debased those lives must be if this is the only thing that can get their rocks off. I guess they don't have to wash their own sheets.
