Sniglets are "neologisms," or new words, that don't appear in the dictionary, but should.  The concept words were devised and given their test run by Rich Hall, a comedian, on an '80s HBO series "Not Necessarily the News."  The series is long canceled, Rich Hall?  Who knows?  But sniglets endure.

I dug up 10 actual sniglets presented on the show, and then added some new ones. A few years ago, I was collaborating with my friend Valerie Perkins, who contributed one of the funniest ones, which I noted.  We both use the word regularly, and invite you to do the same.
