Neologisms before they're cool
The truly hip don't even have a word for that yet.
Dear Hipster:
Why isn’t there a word for “being into something before it was cool”?
— Stephen, Hillcrest
I don’t know. Maybe there is. Preliking?
I’m willing to take suggestions from readers, and we’ll force it into the contemporary American lexicon when we find a winner. Email your ideas to [email protected] and I’ll put it up for a vote, or something, unless I get over it, which is entirely possible.
In the meantime, “spot tease” is my current favorite neologism. That’s when you’re driving along, looking for a spot, you think you see one, but, oh, nope, that’s a Smart car or a motorcycle hidden behind a Hummer. Spot tease!
