Can I get a ruling from the judges on this one?

I think I created a word. And, as I often do, I cracked myself up with my self acknowledged cleverness. I came up with this years ago and used to tease a friend I worked with all the time with it, but hadn't said it out loud in years. Then yesterday, a co-worker replied about a particular screwup by a client, and I told her that I felt she had addressed the situation with just the right amount of "snarcasm."

That's my word. I think I invented it years ago. Never heard anyone else saying it. I have to admit that I said it under my breath a few times about someone here, but that's beside the point.

What do you think? Do I have something of value here? And, for Gods sake, PLEASE do not reply snarcastically!

Good word but unfortunately Amazon already has the T-shirt. Even though someone beat you to marketing it's still your original thought. Which is more than half of America has had in their lifetime!

Snarcasm...I like it. It should be part of elementary vocabulary courses.

I might like to add as a submission for new vernacular : "turd festival"

hmmm, I thought that was what we called Grunge music back in the 90s.

Snarcasm makes me happy.

There has to have been a grunge band called "Turd Festival". There just has to have been.

I wonder how long the tshirt has been in production. This employee that I teased this about was almost 30 years ago.

I realize now, that I should have capitalized on this before now. But heck, there was no Etsy back then. Just a bunch of smart ass ideas going to waste, as there was no simple way to market them!

Oh trust me, I called several of them.... wait. Never mind.

If I find one of these tshirts, I'm wearing it to your gig once you get the new band together!

30 years... you coined it! Definitely before Amazon! I did find a reference to it in 2009 but that's as far back as I saw.

I've been there myself. To come up with an idea before it was even a thing only to see it or hear it a decade(s) later... It's a bitter sweet moment. Upside is your idea is a winner!

Which band? The 70's symphonic nerd prog one or the new grunge project "Snarcastic Turd Festival"?

I say you get full credit for it, DTR.

Who's gonna dispute it, anyway?

Unfortunately, "Turd Festival" has been registered as a trademark by the group that organizes the annual celebration of the greatest Jeopardy contestant ever.

I like it. You should be proud to have created it.

Last week my wife and preteen daughter were going round and round about chores or whatever they bicker about. I asked my wife if everything was ok and she said we have raised a little sasshole that has a smart comment about everything. I was proud of the name my wife came up with for the mouth my daughter obviously got from me.
