Please define a word

[Ben]

In exchange for enduring the trials of being a social outcast (e.g. Geek) and accepting that our answers to cocktail party questions like "What do you do for a living?"  will glaze over eyes in a femtosecond, enginners and scietist are allowed to make up new words since non-sicience types would not dare to question a scientist ("Look the emporer has no clothes!")

This weeks new word is

Weivbal

Talking to my wife we agreed that it should be an adjative or could be used as a noun. Some of my fisrt thought for the definition follow but what I'd like to hear is your definition as it applies to you.

Possible definitions:

1) (adj.) Unessesarily encumbered.

2) (adj.) Duped into believing an accepted methodology is the optimum.

3) (noun) A tangled orb of wires and object usually infested by Flying Spagetti Monsters.

Still need more inspiration? Possible setance contructs could be;

A) I opened the BD and the code was all weivbaled!

B) Weivbal was I ere I saw LabVIEW

So please play your part in defining this new word.

The above was brought to you coutisy of a good nights sleep and Sunday morning coffee with the wife.

Seeing the lack of responses I think definition (1) applies here:

(1) (adj.) Unessesarily encumbered.

"Looks like the Forum members do not want to be weivbaled in responding to your post."

Weivbals wobble, but they don't fall down.

Whenever I read that, "hairballed" comes to mind. 😄

Thanks for the replies Phillip, AK2DM, and Christian.

And I guess I should include Fisher-Price in that list. But then again I would have phrased it "Weivbaled code wobbles and often falls down."
