Make Up Your Own Word

I've had this idea for a while to get people to send in their very own word that they themselves make up and give meaning to. The word can be as serious or as silly as you like, but extra points from me if it describes something hard to describe. It doesn't have to etymologicaly perfect either. Anything goes as long as you provide a meaning to your word.

Example:
Derduplay
To make something intentionally cryptic to hide from others.

(I just made that up on the spot) See, it's that simple. Have a go and see what you can come up with.

ogod...we've turned this thread into a catatrophic one wherein every fricking thing has to be about cats. I've had those conversations at parties (for about a minute)
any way, it's fun.
