(00:00):
Welcome to the Fuzz, where weenvisioned the ideas we'll all be buzzing about
in the future. The buzz surein the future, in the future,
(00:26):
in the future. While the thingswe talk about on this podcast might seem
impossible or even slightly insane, sodid riz jeorts and cromulent and all those
(00:49):
words made their way into the MiriamWebster Dictionary just last year. Cromulent,
by the way, means adequate.Yeah, just like my intro it was
cromulent. Yeah, that was thedefinition of a cromulent intro in case you
didn't deduce it by now. Ontoday's episode, we're talking about words.
(01:15):
There's a lot of them out there. According to the Global Language Monitor,
the English language passed one million wordsway back in two thousand and nine,
and we're adding an average of fourteenpoint seven words each day. It's a
lot of words, Patrick, we'repiling them on here. It's a lot
(01:37):
of words. That's almost unbelievable,how many words per day. I mean,
it might even be more than thatif you think of all these slang
terms that people are thrown out thesedays. I feel like we've just been
accelerating our language creation. I don'tknow if that's true. I don't have
any facts to support that, butit feels that way. Yeah. The
(01:57):
real question is are they good words? I think that's what we should be
wondering. Yeah, and are theyuseful? Are they going to stick around?
I don't know. I guess that'swhat the dictionary is for. That's
for them to decide, not forus. But today we're going to share
with you a handful of new wordswe'll be uttering. Not not today,
(02:19):
not next week, but well intothe future. That's right. We're going
to take you ahead in time andtell you some of the words that people
are going to be throwing around inthe days of tomorrow. The day's far
into tomorrow, So we set somelimitations here. We're each going to jump
ahead a little bit into the futureand bring back two new words to share
(02:44):
with you listeners. So, Patrick, do you want to start us off?
I sure do. But first,as we often do, we have
to step into the time we sharein the future. Noope is the name
(03:10):
of a singular alien being who visitsEarth in the quantum year three. Nupe
has delivered the knowledge of the universeto humankind and fundamentally changed our future As
a part of this transfer of universalenlightenment, we gained the knowledge that Earth
is and always has been, astarship from another galaxy. Once delivered from
(03:35):
our celestial infancy, humans were untetheredfrom thousands of years of mass hysteria.
Our minds were finally free to returnhome. Ironically, though, all anyone
had to do to achieve enlightenment wasto drink a sugary substance that resembled what
some fringe historians called kool aid,which often referred to a person who wrongly
(03:59):
had faith in a possibly doomed ordangerous idea because of perceived potential high rewards.
The term was ancient history, soto speak, and didn't pose much
of a threat. In the end. Noope led humanity to cleep p l
eap, a fold in space timethat both exists and does not exist,
(04:23):
the point from which humans originated.Once in this state of existence, other
aliens in the known universe would tellthe tale of humankind and its fate.
If being asked if we ever existedin the first place, a response could
often be heard by other aliens noop. Oddly enough, the other word comes
(04:46):
from the same future, very closelyrelated and it's Cadizzle. So the creator
of the sugary drink that brought ultimateenlightenment to humans is what many referred to
as the last Core Empire before theknowledge transfer was completed, started by a
distant ancestor of Calvin Cordozer brought UsJunior, also known during his time on
(05:13):
Earth as Snoop Doggie Dog or thedog Father. Cadizzle, the company that
manufactured and marketed the sugary drink thathoused universal wisdom, which coincidentally negated the
need for corporations or capitalism henceforth.So Cadizzle was the company and what many
(05:36):
referred to as the sugary drink thentoo, that brought enlightenment. So Cadizzel
ended corporations. Yeah, because onceenlightenment was complete, humankind transcended. You
(05:58):
know they based Once you've got enlightenment, what do you need this other crap
for? Right? Yeah, Capitalism, all that stuff was gone. Think
of little light beings just sort oflike moving into the you know, the
universe. We're all like, oh, so, noope, so this is
nupe. Do I have the spellingcorrect? Noop? It's nop noop and
(06:27):
I can use it just the sameway as I would use Nope. Now,
well, you know, jokingly,jokingly, aliens in the distant future,
well after quantum yere three. Clearlythat's a long I think, a
long time away. Yeah, it'sa whole nother way of telling time if
(06:49):
you even would consider that time,because at that point they don't really have
time. Space time is different atthat point. Yeah, it's all broken.
Noop. Yeah, Noupe was thesingular alien being, and that's how
the word started. So it wasthe name of that being when it visited
(07:10):
Earth, and then it became aword. It's like you know if you
google something, if you photoshop something, it's like it started off as one
thing, but then it became aword to sort of describe. That's where
its origin is. Now, whatwas that other specific word used in there?
Oh, cleep. It's p lh eap but it's pleep. Okay,
(07:33):
there's a dash in there. Yeah, it's it's a fold in space
time. It's like if you wentto a planet, you know how they
name a planet like pl one onethree, and this is pl EAP as
a fold in space time. Soit's kind of like a place in time
as we would know it today,but in the future it does and does
(07:55):
not exist at the same time.Yeah, I like that one just as
much. Yeah. Cleep you walkinto a door, you're like, man,
it's almost like there was a pleepthere. Yeah, like, oh,
if only I hadn't pleeped right there. Yeah. So, and it
(08:15):
all occurred because of nube, youknow. Yeah, it's all because of
nupe. That's great. It's agreat word. Yeah, and I bring
that back to you, you know, from the distant future. It's I
mean, it's so far and there'sjust so much there, you know,
I mean obviously enlightenment. Some mighteven wonder was it all real, because
(08:41):
you know, humans cease to existafterwards, or maybe they are existing in
another you know, folded space timecontinuum. We don't know for sure.
We don't and it'll break your brainto think about it at this point in
time, so best not go toodeep there. Yeah, some quality words
there though, so feel free tostart using those, and you know,
(09:03):
bring the I don't know what willhappen. Will that still be the future
if people start using them now?You know, now that we've documented it,
will those people in quantum year threelook back and go have we changed
with have we altered the future?Now? A classic? A classic conundrum.
So what do you have from thefuture, shad, What are the
(09:26):
two words you bring back to us? Well? To find out, let's
step into the time this year,so you know, I'm gonna just play
it by ear here. I'm gonnaopen up the Merriam Webster neural interface and
(09:50):
scan the new words created in thepast twelve seconds. So looking through that,
a few popped out to me thatI think you'll find interesting. The
first one hip hail, a wordthat's created in combination of hippocampus and hailstorm.
The definition is the successful result ofa brainstorm or mind thundering session.
(10:15):
The example given here is after brainstormingfor only a quick minute, the podcaster
delivered a hip hail when he saidfour legged Race would be a better title
than Arthur the King. All right, let's see what else we've gotten here,
all right? The next one fravastouolenz. Frava stulence a feeling of
(10:41):
overwhelming technological chaos, which can befleeting or long. Last use it in
a sentence for you. Sometimes whenI'm working and hundreds of screens are flying
at me. A stoolence is almostunbearable. Or I thought the PS eighteen
(11:05):
would be a smash tooth, butit's just pure frava stulence. Ah,
you know what, I well,I'm looking at it. I gotta,
I gotta. I'm gonna just throwout one more at you. I'm gonna
give you a bonus as long asI'm here. I got the neuro the
neural dictionary open here this one.I just think you'll really enjoy. Quatoad
(11:28):
or quatoaing. It's to have afriend or significant other reveal something physically surprising
about themselves, or to reveal somethingphysically surprising about yourself to another. The
origins of the word trace back tothe nineteen ninety sci fi movie Total Recall
(11:50):
quatoad or quatoaing. The woman feltquatoad when she found out her nocturnal partner
had in old speakers in his deltoids. Yeah that's crazy, uh reference to
(12:13):
our podcast. I mean perhaps unlessit's somebody else we don't know. Yeah,
but it appears you delivered a hiphail. Hell? Is that how
they say? It? Is thathow it said? I don't I don't
like a cheer. I mean it'sprobably when when somebody comes up with it
(12:33):
and they're like, Hip, Hell, you've done it. You've done it
again. Pal, You're the masterof brainstorming, mind thundering. It's amazing
fall Legge and race hip Hel.If we had more frav of Stulens,
(12:56):
though, I feel like there wouldbe more hip has happening. You think
so, you think technological chaos wouldcreate more good brainstorming ideas. I think
so. I think. I meanmind thundering produces a lot of from the
(13:16):
wreckage of you know, all thistech flying at us would be like,
good ideas would come out of that. Yeah, people would be like,
hey, hell, hey, Hel, we love all this FRAVA students so
much. FRAVA students. I thinkwe've all been quatoed at some point in
(13:39):
our lives, right, yeah,yeah, beat somebody who has a big
mole you weren't expecting. I likethat a. It stems from total recall.
Yeah. I thought that's why youwould enjoy that one. Quad wasn't
the alien Quato, Yeah he wasQuaid. Quaid was Orange Schwarzenegger, right
(14:03):
right. Quato was the guy onthe mutant on the stomach. Yeah,
yeah, And he would say Quad, he'd point up at him and then
no, it's good. Those aresome great words from the future. I
mean, I can't, I can'tdeny. You know. We've got We'll
go back, We'll list them allhere. I've got hip hail, hip
(14:26):
hail, Yeah, fravastulens and quatoedor quatoing. Those are really great.
And then we have noop and cadizzle. We even have a little p L
dash eap cleep and that pleeps actuallymy favorite. That's the one I'm probably
gonna use the most. I justcleep my pants. It's a lot of
(14:52):
good words from the future. Hopefully, hopefully you enjoyed that, because we
do have part two coming to apodcast the or near you. It's coming
Part two. I mean, that'llbe a real hip hal. That's all
