Like I hinted I would, I made a Nyerk poll. If you don't know what Nyerk is, and you would like to find out, then read the "Create Your Own Relic!" topic in FF6. I wasn't sure where to put this topic, so I put it in the general topic, even though it'll probably get buried amongst the interesting topics.

Don't see how new words can help the language anymore. although i voted "Nyerk?" cause i'm too lazy to read the topic, I don't think we need new words. we have enough as it is tongue.gif

Funny, that's exactly how I designed it to be used.
Edit
Well, then again, there are few other ways that nyerk could be used as. "Hey man, that party was so, like, nyerkin' " dosen't work very well. tongue.gif

Read the 'create you're oun relic' topic in the FF6 forum. He gave the link at the top.
That will explain everything but my last post. (nothing can explain the way I think. shifty.gif )

Not to be unrespectful or anything but, I just hate the word, and the sound of it. It sounds retarded, but the effect of the relic seems cool. The only thing I trhink you should change is the word, but I don't really care much.

No offense taken. If I thought everybody liked the word, I wouldn't have started this poll. wink.gif

I know, I kept trying to convincee myself otherwise, but it does sound like slang for New York.
It wasn't made to be a common word. The only reson I brought up this poll is to see if my sister is the only one who thinks it's stupid. By looking at the polls, it seems she's not at all alone in her opinion. sad.gif

At least one person liked it.

Nyerk is an incredible word filled with genius. And besides, if they can have deoxyribonucleic acid, then we can certainly have nyerk.

Yay! The "I like" has almost as many votes as the "I hate". *happy dance*
I'm surprised that this poll isn't buried yet, I guess the title atracts attention. wink.gif

Edit
By the way, could somebody post in "Create Your Own Relic", I have another idea, but was the last to post

I don't actually go into whether I like a word or not, so I voted "It's just a word to me". Honestly, why would you debate over a word that isn't even official..... yet...

I liked it, but something has to be really funny for me to notice it (or I'm just hyper). I guess it's because I read so many webcomics that I've built an immunity to jokes wink.gif

Hey! The Like is tied with the Hate! *Happy dance*
