Sneeble-greeber
« on: September 23, 2005, 07:11:08 PM »
I just remembered something that one of the girls at work was telling her friend. This was in SA, so maybe it is unique to that country, but I wanted to know if any of you have ever heard or used the term 'sneeble-greeber'

It is a furtive individual whose main pastime is sniffing girls' bicycle seats.
I kid you not, that is what the girl told me.

Come on Doobrey, you know you want to use that term. Call your boss a sneeble-greeber, I dare you.
Now, as a development of the sneeble-greeber discussion, in which several of the young ladies were adamant that it is a genetic affliction and that merely posessing a nose and a Y chromosome makes the individual a potential sneeble-greeber, one of us guys came up with another term (we claimed to have researched it carefully): boffle-wafter.
It was 1-1 after that, because everyone knows that a boffle-wafter is an unsavoury woman who goes around sniffing mens' cricket boxes.  

Hey I don't make the rules, I only play by them.

"..Boffle-wafter isn't too shabby either but I think sneeble-greeber just edges it by a nose..."

And what about Simon Cowell?
He is most definitely a rancid boffle-sneebling pus-ridden waft-greeber

Dammit, I have an attack of the irrational chuckles.
Can't shake it, I wish I had never dug that frikken phrase sneeble-greeber out of the pit of my mind.
Sneeble-greeber.
Dammit, man. Dammit all.

That would seem to be a pefectly acceptable description, yes.

JUDGE: And Mrs Rowntree, when you looked out of your window what did you see?
INNES ROWNTREE: I saw the defendant, erm Mr Cowell, stooping over my bicycle, which I had left propped against the wall of my dear friend's house - Mrs Pope.
JUDGE: What happened next, Mrs Rowntree?
INNES ROWNTREE: I was most perplexed and I called my dear friend Mrs Pope over to the window to see what Mr Cowell was doing.
JUDGE: And did she witness Mr Cowell stooping at the bicycle?
INNES ROWNTREE: Yes, Your Honour, she did.
JUDGE: Did she make any utterance or comment?
INNES ROWNTREE: Yes, Your Honour, she did.
JUDGE: What did she say?
INNES ROWNTREE (blushing): She said 'I say, that knave is greebing the sneeble!'

(much oohing and aahing and shaking of heads amongst the witnesses)

@ Karlos

"...It's almost something you'd hear of in a Roald Dahl book. "The Big Friendly Sneeble Greeber"...."
-------------------------------------------------------

Ja, it could also lend itself to a Dr Seuss character.

"...and the Sneeble Greeber sneebled, and the Sneeble Greeber greebled, and he sneebled and greebled until there were no sneebles to greeble..."

@ Wilse

A thought just struck me...it must dead frikken funny to hear the term 'sneeble-greeber' in your Scottish accent. Please, we gotta have an MP3 of you saying it.
And boffle-wafter..that has to be a good one too.

That is capital, old chap!!!
I say we do it! I like it!
(Perhaps a certain young lady in Aberdeen would donate said bicycle seat, to 'keep it real' as it were).
