Blogger friend Trent, from Trent’s World has graciously given us a new word to add to the dictionary. Compty is the word, and it means… wanting to comment on a blog post but coming up empty when you try. So here’s a poem I promised to write about it. And just in case you missed it, this goes along with last night’s Midnight Madness; which you can check out here.
Compty
Is a very unique word
One you’ve probably
Never even heard
It’s a word made up
By our blogger friend Trent
Who decided to tell me
What this awesome word meant
So have no fear
This magical word is now here
Its meaning is simple and easy
And won’t leave you feeling queasy
It has to do with
Wanting to comment on a blog
During those frustrating times
When your brain is in a fog
It’s then that you can’t quite
Figure out what to say
So you just end up leaving
And going on your merry way
So thank you Trent
For sharing your word
It really is lovely
And not at all absurd
It’s too bad nobody else
Was brave enough to submit any more
Get with the program all you other bloggers
And don’t be such a bore! 😉

It looks like the other dozen or so people who read this before me were all compty 😉 Nice poem, and we’ll make it a true word yet!

Well, there actually were a few comments before yours. I was lazy and slept in today, so I just now approved them. And somebody else came up with another word too. It’s in the comments section on yesterday’s Midnight Madness. Have a great day Trent! I’ll try to be more I uncompty in the future. You’d think as a writer, I’d have more to say. But I find I’m compty most days. Lol… 😉

Ah yes, I forgot that you screen your calls, I mean moderate your comments.

Ha ha….. yes I do. It wasn’t always this way, but one person had to screw up the normal process for everyone else. So now I’m forced to. 😉

Good word! It describes that feeling perfectly. I couldn’t come up with a word to add to your last blog post, and I suppose it was because I was feeling compty. 😉

Lol…. well, now we at least have a word for it. 😉 Probably one of the best ideas yet, because I’m always coming up compty myself. Hope you’re having a good day. 🙂

That’s really a lovely word…needs to included in dictionary.
Happens a lot with me. Sometimes I read something so awesome and I just scroll fast to comment section, but then I have no idea what to write.
Awesome word you came up with Trent 🙂
Nice poem, Michelle. 🙂
