I coined a couple of words a few years ago. One is 'lembeck', as in "going lembeck", from Harvey Lembeck, the actor who played the motorcycle guy on the old 60's Beach Party movies, and his signature stunt which he did once per movie. It means to suddenly become inoperative, as in stop immediately, without visibly breaking or causing damage to other people or objects.
The other one is a computer-nerd word: 'tribble'. It refers to a computer malware program that does not maliciously destroy data or interfere with operations, but reproduces so fast that it interferes with operations simply by using resources. The source/reference is the Classic Star Trek episode "The Trouble with Tribbles"... The original Tribbles were said to be "born pregnant"..

The kids named our cat Tribble. We don't feed him tribble and bits for breakfast. And, thankfully he hasn't any worms.
Are you related to Freddie Fudpucker? I met him at the High Ball. He was sitting next to the godfather and poking a white Russian with a rusty nail. What a sight!
