Creation and Usage Notes

This word was coined in honor of my friend Blaine. Not a very interesting word, I warrant, but I likely coined it because I knew it was going to be used in the episode. Sometimes it matters more to get it on screen than have it be interesting. Plus, I'd already coined a good one for him. -David J. Peterson 02:07, 8 July 2024 (PDT)
