Hehe... I'll spoil. A few of us on this list used to work at UPS in the
TSG group, myself and Ray included. It was often a very boring job, so we
had to find ways to amuse ourselves. One day, Ray decided that he was
going to make up words and we would use them in conversation with
managers, and see who noticed that he was making up words...
Anangrous is one of the more successful words to come out of that. It
means, roughly, "bad, unpleasant, or hairy, as in /anangrous situation/."
Only one manager actually realized it was made up, and called us on it.
If you worked at UPS, you'd do stuff like this too...
