Koput, you're tight with those piss-stained wretches. Make yourself
useful, for once, by putting me in the picture, news-wise, and look
sharp about it.
Get me the goods, and maybe there's a shiny new Canadian fuckHead

I cannot abuse that which has not been identified for my convenience.
Are you still reading? God damn it, get *moving*! Bring me reliable

It's impossible to understand what are you raving about.

Not to worry, Bruce, it's a snuh thing.

What's it like, being ruled by a word, year after year?

When did *SNUH* become a word? It's just an acronym...

Stunt Word

An informal term for a word created and used to produce a special effect
or attract attention, as if it were part of the performance of a stunt
man or a conjuror. All three such words in the following citation
combine ordinary base words with Latinate suffixes to suggest
pretentious immaturity: 'As they smoked and stuffed fat palatable bites
of sandwich into their mouths, [the boys] would regard each other with
pleased sniggers, carrying on thus an insane symphony of laughter:
"Chuckle, chuckle! - laugh of gloatation." / "Tee-hee, tee-hee, tee-hee!
... laugh of titterosity." / "Snuh-huh, snuh-huh, snuh-huh! ... laugh of
gluttonotiousness"' (Thomas Wolfe, Look Homeward Angel, 1929: italics
added).

Stunt words used to exhibit and practise spelling patterns are a feature
of the children's books of Theodor Seuss Geisel (Dr Seuss): 'Did you
ever have the feeling, / there's a WASKET in your BASKET? / ... Or a
NUREAU in your BUREAU? / ... Or a WOSET in your CLOSET? / Sometimes I
feel quite CERTAIN / there's a JERTAIN in the CURTAIN. / Sometimes I
have the feeling / there's a ZLOCK behind the CLOCK. / And that ZELF up
on that SHELF!/ I have talked to him myself' (from There's a Wocket in
my Pocket!, 1974).

That's a damn nice historical precedent.
