What is more of a shame is that probably thousands of other Ivy League college grads understood her exactly and never realized that she used a made-up word. They probably use it themselves. I have heard many college grads, even on TV, use the word “Pacific” for “specific,” and who say “orienTAted” (adding the syllable “TA”) when the word is “oriented.”

She didn't make up a word. She used the wrong word. But the word she used is very revealing of her intellectually stunted personality.

She's one of those internet users who attaches silly smiley faces http://images.search.yahoo.com/search/images?_adv_prop=image&fr=moz35&va=emoticon to her ramblings because her vocabulary is limited and she needs animated help to complete her thoughts.
