Burble

After an idea or ideal is shot down; essentially when somebody's 'bubble is burst'. The creators are well aware that burble is also a synonymn for 'bubbling', 'babbling', or 'gurgling', but feel that, as so many words have multiple definitions, 'burble' is strong enough to uphold a new meaning.

"After all, when someone becomes disillusioned, as in so many works of literature in the modernism fad, their dreams become burbles."

"Go home, think about it, and mourn your burble."
