A new word
I coined a new word yesterday. It happened while I was at work. We received a case up the freight elevator that had a broken runner. The runners are what allow the cases to roll smoothly along the conveyors. With a broken runner of course the case would not roll. Some brilliant soul on the dock thought it would be a good idea to keep the freight rolling by simply placing the broken case on a folded up case of a slightly larger size, While this did keep the case rolling it also lead to many safety risks. The broken case could easily have shifted or slipped causing harm to the parts in side, or any person who may have been around. Or if it had shift while on the freight elevator, it could have jammed the elevator and damaged equipment. Anyway, the word I coined was "idjitnuity". My definition for "idjitnuity" is "a bit of utter lunacy that some idjit thought was a great idea" And other than the example I just cited, the prime example is Obamacare. Comment with your own examples.
