This post makes no sense whatseover on any level. The neologism stinks. This guy doesn't need to be defended. I don't care about websites making fun of homeless people (unless there's hobo wine involved). What's the added value here?

Please stop.

Wait, if Emily and Julia were actually friends--then this means Pareene and Jakob might actually be friends! Which is nice because having friends is SOOOO 2008!

@TheHonJudgeSmails: Nice page view and comment you got there.

i am friends with no one. i just can't get enough bum-mocking.

View!111!!!1!

Depends on his mood, I suppose.

@CodePink: It's such a Catch-22. I mean, hindsight's always 20/20. I'm damned if I do, damned if I don't. One man, one vote. Je suis l'etat.

I reserve the right to make fun of Jakob Lodwick's blank stare.

@Pareene: I'll be ur fren

@CodePink: Having friends was so 2007. 2008 is all about pretending to talk to somebody on the cell phone while standing in line at Starbucks, alone.

@TheHonJudgeSmails: I know. That's why you should just praise me in the comments. There's no harm in that.

Maybe he's not bipolar, he's a multiple personality.

And it's the other one that makes fun of the homeless.

It would explain the blank stare.

@Furious_George: haven't we done that already?

He's not coming in to liveblog at 2, is he?

it's "portmanteau." c'est vrai!

uuuuhhh...Hey, Gawker? we need to talk. Ok its like this. People like Allison and Lodwick are boring mediocrities. No, its not ironic or fun just depressing. So I would feel a lot better about our relationship if you would stop shoving them into my face all the damn time. My neurons have boundary issues and they sort of like cant handle the marital mind rape anymore. Thanks.

This post is so cheap (the "clarification" promises something it doesn't deliver). And, by the way, it's written in a dead language. But you can't beat that Lodwickian stare. I'd look that way, too, I guess, if I just found out that my ex-girlfriend dropped a dime on me.

Does portmanteau involve a canoe?

Uh...

Bring back...Emily?

Jesus.

jeez, you guys act like we still had editors!

"Portmanteau" is the most overused word on Wikipedia, which is itself a portmanteau of "encyclopedia" and Chris Isaak's "Wicked Game."

I got arrested for Wikipedia in Arizona last year.

Who?

Huh! Looks like my catch phrase for 2008 is gonna be "Where's the Julia Allison tag?"

@mcginstein: Oh I've been craving my afternoon digital lynch mob all day. Though I'm sure Lodwick wouldn't divulge anything juicy like deets on the JA body odor (my guess: Victoria's Secret Angel and shi-tzu pee). Then we'd all be BORED.

PS- Pareene, I am your friend whether you like it or not. And you're gonna like it!

@Furious_George: Better yet. Do that on the subway. If anyone asks how you have cell coverage - tell them you are from the future.

if someone mocks my bum and as a result i have trouble getting work, is that actionable?

@Furious_George: Does that mean if you Wikipedia Helena Christensen the world will implode?

"Jakob Lodwick" is in fact a portmanteau of the Adrian Lyne flick "Jacob's Ladder" and femme fatale Barbara Stanwyck.

Is every one of his retarded buzz words that make no sense a 'term' now? Way too much credit here. He is neither an inventor nor an English scholar.

this makes little sense. What is a norbum? Does that mean a bum picks up something from Nordstroms? Where is Nordstroms in Manhattan, isn't it in Roosevelt Field?

@poisonville: Oh man, now I'm hard for Barbara Stanwyck. Thanks.

@TheHonJudgeSmails: 'Cause when you put your hand in a pile of goo, that used to be your best friend's face! Forget it, Marge, it's Chinatown!

Let me make quite clear that I take full credit for "Wal-Fart."

@lesbiansayswhat: What does being an inventor or an English scholar have to do with coining words?

Tionna Smalls minted more good words in three months than Thomas Edison and Harold Bloom did in their whole lives.

@BK_KT: Yesterday just got to be way too much for me. What a fuckfest that way. And not in a good way.

@mcginstein: *that waS

@gefilte_fish_blues: clarification, please: your hardness for JL transferred over to Barbara Stanwyck? Or just hearing her name invoked gets a rise out of you?

For me it's the latter.

@poisonville: I don't know about that. Considering that Thomas Edison gave the world "broseph," "LOL," and "manscaping," I think he's pretty untouchable.

@Furious_George: My apologies to the Wizard of Menlo Park.

I heard that Nikola Tesla came up with "Jewfro" but never received his proper due.

@poisonville: Thomas Jefferson had and came up with "jungle fever."

Does this Lodwick character have any idea how many bums are unmedicated bipolar former Internet millionaires? People in glass Nordstroms shouldn't throw stones at their future bum selves. Or something like that.

@Furious_George: Also, Ben Franklin wrote the lyrics to what would later become the Stevie Wonder song "Jungle Fever."

I know Julia said he was bipolar, but he really looks like he has Asperger's in that photo.

@Furious_George: Yeah, and what's worse, TJ used to self-medicate for it.

Epictetus once told the emperor Nero to "talk to the hand"

A non-entity didn't do something? Um, ok, thanks for the news - this new Gawker rocks!

Oh see, I thought Norbum meant useless.

@jrhys: THEN DON'T CLICK THE FUCKING LINK, KTHXBI!

@Itsjustcatnip: I thought it was meds!

I had a glass of water ready and everything.

So does this make Julia a hobosexual, which is a term I copped from Natalie Dee?

I was going to write "there is nothing new under the sun" because I thought my dad made that up, but Google is telling me he ripped it off from Ecclesiastes 1.

@ HOT FOOT : I only clicked it to get close to you...

@ButchCrassidy: Maybe it's apotropaic. Like "Scary Sadshaws."

@HOT FOOT come on, swear more, it makes you sound smarter...
