ReLo'd to BA from SD

in late 2006, relocated my angst, business, and social life to NoCal from SoCal ... just a 40-something chick in the 'burbs of the SF bay area who randomly posts about random topics ... the occasional quirky stories of dating (or not) at 40-ish, work-week cubeopolis frivolity, rambling musings on nostalgika, and the occasional introspective moments in life.(thanks for visiting! >p, b)

cube-alabras ... where have you been?!

Bookmark and Share

¿dónde están mis cube-alabras?
que est que c'est? cube-alabras?!

it will be nearly one year since adding to the list of cube-alabras, aka words (palabras) about cubicle life. here are the four batches since last july '08
  • pre-voyage ~ 2 mos after starting at cubeopolis over here
  • batch 1 maiden voyage over here where cubic hair was introduced.
  • batch 2 over here where cubeturbation (multiple definitions for a cubealabras) was introduced
  • batch 3 over here where cubicide was introduced (and unlikely because of physics but still ...)
  • mini-batch 4 over here where cuberalissimo was introduced
and a few other posts includes as part of the cubealabras family of posts. anyway, after a cubester recently (this past week) asked about a possible cubealabras, here is (mini-)batch 5, the first of 2009.
  • Harry Cubini -- the staffer who always seems to disappear whenever an important assignment comes in.
  • Cuberace -- sexually ambiguous staffer who always wants to "entertain" everyone, including someone's brother named George, with questionable musical selections on either a piano or ukelele at the annual Festivas party. Tends to wear more bling than a blind rapper.
  • cubitis -- Can one develop cubitis from the day in/day out occupation of a cubical?
  • Cubebob Loblaw -- A loud person you tend to tune out would be named Cubebob Loblaw.
  • cubrication -- If you're having friction with your fellow cubemate, I'd say it's due to lack of sufficient cubrication. (i'll have to see if this also was defined before.)
  • cubervise -- A person who repeatedly disturbs his cube neighbors is said to be insufficiently cubervised.
  • cubesticles -- A loud office worker who refuses his boss' orders to quiet down might be said to have large cubesticles. (also, cubejones, cubollocks)
  • cubepetitive stress injury -- And a wrist injury resulting from one's reflexive jerking motion every time a loud office worker talks is called cubepetitive stress injury.
  • cuboister, cuboisterous -- A cubester known to be loud. The cuboister was being so cuboisterous I could hardly think.
  • cubesplitting -- as in ear splitting in cubeopolis. Her voice is cubesplitting, I wish she would just STFU!
  • cubeatterbox (or cubatterbox) -- chatter box in cubeopolis
  • cubecibel -- as in decibel, the measure of noise in cubeopolis
cuber
pronounced
koo-BEH
ya don't say? ... voulez-vous cuber avec moi?
definition(s) ... s’il vous plaît
