I know I didn't make it up. Anyone else heard of this word?

Example sentence: You can tell they ate Schlotzky's sandwiches for lunch; they left lettuce friblets all over the table.
 
friblet? not a chance! thats a new one to me. of course you've probably never heard of the word "skukum" either lol
 
I've heard skukumchuck, but not just plain' ol' skukum

I'm partial to gundis, but I didn't make it up...never used friblet before.

Gundis is any of the varieties of gunk that gets left in any of a variety of places (i.e. in the bottom of a cup after a bit of milk has rested there for a period of time)

hmmmm....

Never heard of friblet, but Ill use it now! Skukum was one of my mothers faves. Heard it all the damn time!

Example: "Wow, you did just a skukum job of mowing the lawn son, now mow the back forty!"

Here is one for ya, I teach tiny Japanese kids so I call them "kidlets". They are not quite big enough to be called kids yet.....:)

Thanks for the new vocab......

We have a river named the Skookumchuck River.. and a really trashy trailer park named.. the Skookumchuck Trailer park.. (never figured out why though, it's no where near the river)

as far as friblet.. never heard it..
 
lol as far as i know, Skukum means "big, strong, good, like an ox" that kind of thing
