HOGWASH word WAGIMAN
I'm starting a new round of Hogwash and the word is...........
WAGIMAN
The participants in this game are to suggest a meaning for this word, a spurious definition (known as 'daffynitions') and submit them (by private message ) to me, Candy.
You have a "sennight" to send your ideas in and then your compositions will be posted and voting will begin. (I may be persuaded to extend this period if necessary).
I'm looking for the most imaginative meaning, not necessary the real meaning, which will be revealed at the end of the game
because, you all know.....no cheating. Do not use a dictionary or google the word.
Have fun everyone.

Could you tell what it means? Internet challenged. Is it good or bad? I mean .... I don't understand the expression.

Could you tell what it means? Internet challenged. Is it good or bad? I mean .... I don't understand the expression. It's a play on the politically correct phrases of the form x-challenged, e.g., intellectually-challenged for someone who isn't quite of normal intelligence or physically-challenged for someone who might have, for example, a deformed leg. It has gone on to become height-challenged for someone shorter than average. In Avy's case it might mean that she has lost internet access at home.

---chafing at the bit in anticipation. One of the better
aspects of this site, from my point of view.

I'm the brand newbie on the block. I understand how the game works, but how do I get in to play? I don't see an option...

hopefully will be soon.
