Skipping stones across the internet...
« on: August 19, 2017, 06:02:19 AM »
Bored.  Finished some stuff.  But needed a new meaningless word for something I'm doing.  Decided to just make up some stuff and stick in in my search term box (not Gargle.  I hate Gargle.)

wegelnix
Did you mean: wedgenix
WedgeNix is an online clothier.
Nope.

porglesnert
Sorry, no results for this search
Hmmmm....

doznets
Did you mean: doenets
Nope.  "Doznets" is too close to "doenets."
Clicked on highlighted doenets:

MAZ - Doznet
  www.maz.ch/doznet/ Proxy  Highlight  
MoodleFür bestimmte Studiengänge und Kurse nutzen wir die Kommunikationsplattform Moodle. Die Teilnehmenden werden von uns informiert. Direktzugriff ...

???

But "doenets" apparently relates to Department of Education training system on the internet.  So I gather "Moodle" is a Kommunikationsplattform for student gangs and short nuts.  For our non-German speakers' benefit I have translated Kommunikationsplattform into "Communications Platform."

Pure random keystrokes usually results in the no results message, probably because there's rarely a proper consonant and vowel order.

Porglesnert it is, then.

Kind of a fun game if you're really, really bored.

Sorry, mon vieux, but Porglesnert is already a 19th Century Armenian parlor game involving a frog, a turkey baster, and three copper coins.

Moodle is some kind of collaborative educational thing: https://moodle.org/.
In thy presence is fulness of joy.
At thy right hand pleasures for evermore.
