next line hyphen

A method to differentiate a dash placed at the end of a line to indicate that a word has been separated into two parts because it did not fit on a line, from a hyphen inserted between two or more words, such as "hands-on", "brother-in-law", or "state-of-the-art".

It is best to differentiate a dash placed at the end of a line to indicate that a word has been separated into two parts because it did not fit on a line, from a hyphen in a compound word such as "hands-on".

A "compound word" is comprised of two or more words and has a hyphen between each word.

If a line ends in "able-" and the next line says "bodied", readers automatically interpret "able", followed by "body", to mean "ablebodied". Most people do not remember that the correct way to write "ablebodied" is with a hyphen (able-bodied). I call this method to differentiate dashes from hyphens the "next line hyphen".

If the last word on a line of text says "for-", and the first word of the next line says "profit", the logical way to interpret the dash is as being a dash, though in reality, the writer means “for-profit”, not “forprofit”.

Asshole next door

What you get when you try to do what Dr. Frankenstein did by making a boy next door out of an asshole.

She tried to take the more favorable traits/parts of guys that she actually liked and combine them with the disgusting and grotesque traits/parts of the guy she was operating on to make him more like a boy next door, but instead ended up getting an asshole next door.

next-stop-crazytown

Over the top behavior that leads friends/family/spectators to believe you have mental health issues.

Public displays of random, seemingly unprovoked outbursts or actions involving exaggerated emotion such as anger, rambling at a microphone, goofy public political discourse, or other attention-getting kooky behavior.

Guy: Did you hear Dave at the Board meeting?
Female Co-worker: Yeah, I hope he has his resume' updated, 'cuz the COO had that next-stop-crazytown look on his face when Dave started screaming at him about his plan for next year's projects. In this economy, that's just nutty.
Guy: That's what I was thinkin'.

next level stoogery

A next level of stupidity that surpasses even the most exemplary of stupidity. A stupidity so profound that even the people who set the bar of amazing stoogery are completely caught off guard and are left in a state of shock ,awe, disgust and finally utter disbelief.

Wow... just wow.. you went to take out the garbage, but along the way got distracted and left it on the ground next to the garbage can and come back inside. Now you have to go back out and finish the task.. that's some next level stoogery my friend.
