2011 Highlights
New words: Caffiend and Caffriend
Caffiend
noun
A person extremely devoted and addicted to liquid in the form of soda or coffee.
Also inspired the word Caffriend, a person – possibly at the office – with whom you share your caffeine addiction. I will not comment as to whether this is the sole reason you are friends with this person, but caffeine’s a real addiction. It bonds people.

New word: ridicute
ri·di·cute
–adjective
ridiculous + cute = ridicute
Inspired by my dear Gold Friend‘s surprise engagement photos, I present to you the word “ridicute,” to be used to describe something that is intolerably darling, precious and pleasing.
Go ahead and enjoy this new, fabulous word. Use it in a sentence. Impress your friends and coworkers with its cleverness. You’re welcome.
