Janky

08/06/04 | by [mail] | Categories: culture/news

It's time to settle a debate than ran for most of last week. I was using the word janky, and everyone else on the trip insisted that I made up the word. So, here is the definition, courtesy of the Urban Dictionary:

Janky (adjective) inferior quality; held in low social regard; old and dilapidated; refers almost exclusively to inanimate material objects, not to people

I'm not the type who takes relish in being right and proving someone else wrong . . . oh wait, yes I am. That's the point of this whole post. Bufe, Sara, Brendan: I expect to see your written apologies as comments. And make them good apologies, not janky ones. Bam!

Good for you. I’m terribly sorry. Hope that apolgoy wasn’t too janky for you.

Yeah Danny, I don’t know whats will some people. It’s obviously the adjective form of the noun ‘jank.’ As in the following typical conversation at our crib.

My wife: You playin’ poker on the internet again?

Me: Why you always all up in my jank?

Glad everyone is back safe.

Danny, I’m really happy that you were correct but, next time will you PLEASE come up with more than one “new” word for Bufe to run into the ground. Although I missed him, I am about to glue his “janky” mouth closed if he says it one more time today!
