Creating your own language among friends
What are some of your words or phrases that will never wind up in the dictionary. e.g. words that only you and your friends understand.
For example,
A friend of mine at work likes Southpark as do I. So when the Jersy Shore episode came out -Kyles mom used the word Garbage, or, "Your Muff is garbage" but it was pronounced CABBAGE.
We laughed at that and later we simply called eachother "Cabbage Muff" or "Cabbage" for short.
I work in a manufacturing plant and later used the term " Cabbage" to describe bad or scrap parts he made or is making.
Recently jobs that are particlarily difficult or have lots of mistakes in the instruction are called "Hot Cabbage".
OK well I guess you had to be there...
Anyone else play this kind of word game?
Another word used is Throttle-mash, clownface to the 1st person who guesses it.
LOL, yeah, I have tons with my fiance. Half the shit we talk about would sound like a different language to anyone eavesdropping.
The first one started years ago at Christmas lunch at her parents place. Her sister's bogan husband told me that I "have to have some punkin" [sic] (meaning pumpkin) and proceeded to serve me heaps onto my plate. He'd done something weird to it on the BBQ, and it didn't look appetising at all. When he walked off, I whispered to my fiance "the punkin freaks me out" and since then, every thing that's freaky or weird is "a bit punkin". The term also expanded to anything when we're just messing/joking around.
"What are you doing?"
"Just punkining around".
There are tons more, lol.

Every workplace has its own share of lingo and unique words, but military probably tops it.
my two favourite words from working in the army
-unfuck: to fix your screw up
-shitpump: absolute moron
My friends and I say "dog face" for something that is bad. Comes from a friend having bad mushroom trip and she went to a 'dark place', but she was so fucked up all she could keep muttering was 'dog face'.
I create new friends but have no languages.
among my transgender friends we have many code words and euphemisms. one of my favorites is 'breeder', which is the word we use to talk about straight, cisgender people, especially straight cis-men.
between my partner and i, we share many of these sorts of things too.

me and my friends will work much of the dialogue from "The Room" into everyday conversation
Yeah, "breeder" started in the gay community, I think, and is really common. Also adopted by "childfree" people of all orientations, more recently.
my social life is a whirlwind of memes and non-sequiturs

I've come from the depths of inactivity hell to tell you that this does not count as creating your own language. That being said, every single group does this, and it just tends to get more dynamic in small groups (e.g. couples). In my case, my fiancée and I have gone so far down this path (having 3 languages to choose from definitely helps) that we even have a nickname both for my right AND my left nut.
Our cutest word is "naca-ioche": Though it does mean "close friend" in moonspeak (nakayoshi), it came to mean in our Portuguese "to touch our foreheads against each other"... similarly, "naca-uaro" (a faux antonym that just doesn't exist in the source language) means "to head-butt with epic rage". Yeah, she's got a bit of a temper

| Originally posted by Sushipunk You might be right there, I don't ever recall hearing "girl-fags" use the term |

English is not equal to first language...
I was born that way too.
Me and my friends,..have created an ultimate ending to every adjective, name, or verb. We add the word skeet or skeets to pretty much everything.
Wanna listen to some Afroskeet?
Yo, we outskeets?
I wanna fuckskeet her.
I am extra skeets about this.
Are you extra skeeted?
At the bar where I worked last year we called Orange Juice "Not Guilty".
As in, I can I get a Vodka, Not Guilty?
Carton of Not Guilty for the Kitchen please.
Among my friends, we once heard some guy in Toronto trying to get a cigar from some next guy on the street (presumably, they knew each other). Anyways, he yells at the guy "Hey!! Cigar bidday!"
He had some sort of accent which made the whole scene very funny to us. Now, years later, we will shorten our questions into a word, followed by "bidday." So I might get a call from my friend that will go like this.
"Hello?"
"Club bidday?!" - Clubbing tonight, ya down?
or
"Food bidday!" - I'm hungry, lets go get some food.
or say some drama has gone down and we want to make fun of whatever dude is being emotional this week:
"Justin bidday?" - He's such a fag eh?
It's a universal word that more or less replaces the 5 W's and How. Yes, we learned later what a bidday actually is. No, we don't care
