Wednesday Silliness: Dipsy Gizzardbrains

Today I got an email from my friend JuJu. (Well, her real name is Judy, but I call her JuJu or Judykins.) Her subject line read: CHEESEY DIPPINDUNKIN.

Well, if there’s one thing you must know about me besides I like to travel and I’m into ghosts, I ADORE food. I thought she was passing along some recipe!

Oh no. It was her created name using the scheme below. (Now I have something new to call her!) Mine is Dipsy Gizzardbrains. (This one sounds like a cocktail to me! Maybe one a zombie would enjoy?)

I had seen this years ago when I worked as a paralegal. (At the same law firm where I met JuJu no less!) I know this has noting to do with travel, ghosts, the paranormal or what have you, but it did bring a smile to my face.

It’s meant to be one of those viral emails. (You know, the “do this and forward it on to so many of your friends, including the person who sent it to you, and in X amount of days after so many minutes a windfall of blessings will change your life, and possibly your bank account forever…and if you don’t you’ll suffer from embarrassing gas attacks that come out both ways, simultaneously, at all times of the day and night causing you to lose your job, pride, and all of your friends!”)

I wish no jinxes or curses on anyone, but if you’re a blogger so inclined to have a little fun today, too, then I wish you a few moments of joy and laughter as you indulge in this whimsy!

WHAT THE EMAIL STATED (PARTS HAVE BEEN MODIFIED FOR BLOGGING PURPOSES)

Children laugh an average of 146 times a day; adults laugh an average of 4 times a day.

MY NEW NAME IS IN THE ]TITLE]…..DON’T LAUGH UNTIL YOU FIND OUT WHAT YOUR NEW NAME IS.

We all need a little stress-reliever! This only takes a minute.

Please don’t be a bore & ruin it. Send it on to everyone you know including the person that sent it to you.

Sometimes when you have a stressful day or week, you need some silliness to break up the day. If we are honest, we have a lot more stressful days than not.

Here is your dose of humor…

A. Follow the instructions to find your new name.

B. Once you have your new name, [create a new post and put it in the title] and [Twitter, Digg, Facebook, etc it.]

Don’t forget to [notify the blogger you copied this list from] so they know you participated. And don’t go all adult – a senior manager is now known far & wide as Dorky Gizzardsniffer!

The following is excerpted from a children’s book, Captain Underpants And the Perilous Plot Professor Poopypants, by Dave Pilkey, in which the evil Professor forces everyone to assume new names…

1. Use the third letter of your first name to determine your New first name:

a = snickle

c = goober

d = cheesey

e = crusty

f = greasy

g = dumbo

h = farcus

i = dorky

j = doofus

k = funky

l = boobie

m = sleezy

n = sloopy

o = fluffy

p = stinky

q = slimy

r = dorfus

s = snooty

t = tootsie

u = dipsy

v = sneezy

w = liver

x = skippy

y = dink y

z = zippy

2. Use the second letter of your last name to determine the first half of your New last name:

a = dippin

b = feather

c = b atty

d = burger

e = chicken

f = barffy

g = lizard

h = waffle

i = farkle

j = monkey

k =3 D flippin

l = fricken

m = bubble

n = rhino

o = potty

p = hamster

q = buckle

r = gizzard

s = lickin

t = snickle

u = chuckle

v = pickle

3. Use the third letter of your last name to determine the second half of your new last name:

c = face

d = nose

e = hump

f = breath

g = pants

h = shorts

i = lips

j = honker

k = head

l = tush

Thus, for example, George W. Bush’s new name is: Fluffy Chucklefanny.

Now when you SEND THIS ON…use your new name as the subject.
