 Tull "Fictionary" Game!
« Thread Started on Jan 11, 2012, 9:51pm »

Here, we will create a Tull dictionary of fictitious words containing the first, middle or last names of any current or former Tull members, including Ian Band members, or any form of the word 'Tull.' Try to be original, and be sure to include syllables, parts of speech and usages.

Examples:

ianian \ee-yah-knee-ahn\ adj. : harsh, dictatorial, undemocratic - ex. "The people revolted against the ianian regime."

martinious \mahr-tin-i-us\ adj. : powerful, fluid, smooth - ex. "The racehorse ran in a martinious way."

noyce \noyss\ n. : a leather jacket or vest - ex. "The bassist was wearing a really nice noyce."

tullstoy \tull-stoy\ n. : a prolific, yet cranky, storyteller or writer - ex. "JTB member Morthoron is a curmudgeonly wordwraith....a genuine tullstoy."

anderson \ann-derr-sonn\ v. to publicly berate, scold, or humiliate, particularly over a minor matter. ex. "The audience member was a little late getting back to his seat, so the band leader andersonned him."

lancelot \lansse-eh-lott\ v. to run, jog or otherwise exercise. ex. "He used to be overweight, but then he lancelotted so much that he became thin."

Okay, so that's the general idea. Let's see how many words we come up with for our Tull Fictionary.

How about Ian Andering ( E-an Andering ) : To fire working individuals who don't agree with the boss's point of view. Ex. : Let's go Ian Andering and fire the boss unnervingly. :P

ROFL!

flatullent \flah-tull-int\ adj. : the farty noises Ian Anderson makes when he plays his flute - ex. "During his flute solo in the song Bourée, Mr. Anderson sputtered up a flatullent storm. We hope he wiped afterward."


jethropomorphic \jeh-throw-po-morf-ic\ n. : attribution of Tullian characteristics (or characteristics assumed to belong only to Jethro Tull) to other bands - ex. "The band last night made a half-hearted attempt to play 'Locomotive Breath'; however, the flautist's effort at jethropomorphic flatullence was more spit than splendor."

And here's an alternate definition:

tullboarding /tull-bord-ing/ n. one of many enhanced intulligation techniques used to painlessly recruit new members to The Jethro Tull Board. ex. "The Tull fan could not be persuaded to join the most popular Tull discussion site on the internet, so he was taken out and tullboarded until he complied."

and another, along the same lines:

tullser /tull-zer/ v. to electronically, yet painlessly, shock, stun and detain Tull fans who fail to join the most popular Tull discussion site on the internet. ex. "The Tull fan refused to leave an inferior Tull chat site to join The Jethro Tull Board, so TM tullsered him, so that he could later be tullboarded."

Isn't that a form of military intulligence supported by Dick Craney?

aqualungbiscuit \ˈękwə-lʌŋ-'bɪskɪt\ n. : old brand of biscuits invented by Jethro Tull, an English agricultural pioneer who helped bring about the British Agricultural Revolution and who perfected a horse-drawn seed drill in 1701 that economically sowed the seeds in neat rows, and later a horse-drawn hoe.
They were very popular between children from those years and also at both sides of the Pond as it tasted so sweet.

Time now to revive our Tull Fictionary game, where we create our own words using current or past bandmember names!

odonnell /oh-dahn-null/ verb : To act in an imitative manner; to copy or replicate; to assist or aid one who is unable. Ex. "The aging band leader could no longer sing so well, so he hired someone younger to odonnell him onstage."
