(Editor: The following is an article that actually appeared in an Irish newspaper in County Cork.)



A CORK radio station was running a competition - words that weren't in the dictionary yet that could still be used in a sentence that would make logical sense. The prize was a trip to Bali.


DJ: "96FM here, what's your name?"


Caller: "Hi, me name's Dave."


DJ: "Dave, what's your word?"


Caller: "Goan ... spelt G-O-A-N, pronounced 'go-an'."


DJ: "... You are correct, Dave, 'goan' is not in the dictionary. Now, for a trip to Bali: What sentence can you use that word in that would make sense?"


Caller: "Goan f**k yourself!"


The DJ cut the caller short and took other calls, all unsuccessful until:


DJ: "96FM, what's your name?"


Caller: "Hi, me name's Jeff."


DJ: "Jeff, what's your word?"


Caller: "Smee ... spelt S-M-E-E, pronounced 'smee'."


DJ: "You are correct, Jeff, 'smee' is not in the dictionary. Now, for a trip to Bali: What sentence can you use that word in that would make sense?"


Caller: "Smee again! Goan f**k yourself!"
