For those who don't know what sniglets are: they are words which don't
exist but should. The term sniglet was originally coined by comedian
Rich Hall, but the idea is much older. One of my favorites,
unfortunately I don't remember the word itself, but the definition was
"The conflict one feels in the middle of the night between the urge to
remain in bed and the urge to get up and pee. I bet there's a German
word for it (14 syllables long).</cite></p>
