Things I did not know

Well this isn't a list of things that I did not know previously to today. But there is one thing that I did not know until just now.
Thingamajig is a word.
I know, surprising. But I typed it in to an email and my Outlook did not target it as a misspelled word, leading me to believe that it is actually a word.
This pleases me greatly because for someone having an English/Communications/Journalism college degree I don't speak as well as one should. I say such things as "you guys" (which is better than saying ya'll, which I hate btw {btw means by the way, by the way}).
"Hows come?" is another one that I get made fun of for. And I tend to screw up the whole "i" before "e" except after "c" and before "v"? I'm not sure how it goes actually. I just use spell check when the situation with the i and e arises.
But one other cool thing I didn't know until a few weeks ago...while in a word doc as in Microsoft word...hold down the "ALT" key while pushing a series of numbers on your keypad. For instance hold down ALT and type in 145. There are a ton of them, try it out. I guarantee it'll keep you occupied for at least 5 mins. I don't know how far back that little trick goes but I have MSOffice 2003.
Back to this whole thingamajig thing...
I'm begining to wonder if all the words that I make up will soon become actual words. For instance whatserface, or whatshisface, or also a variation of the two, whatserbuckets name, or whatshisbuckets name.
Will all carbonated drinks become pops?
Is the world slowly developing into sheeple followers of me?
This would work out quite well with my plan to become the dominant world leader, everyone will speak Nettiespeak or Philspeak, Flaire is very excited to become the Secretary of Production of Squeaky Toys. Man this could be so awesome.
In the meantime, I'll keep a lookout for more of Nettiespeak becoming part of mainline society.
Oh I know what would work...I need to get on that show with Paris Hilton...My New BFF or something, and start throwing out the mespeak.
Oh yes, muwahahahahahahahah (evil laugh)
