So i am staking the rights to a new phrase .. based on a member here who has set a kind of bar, so to speak, on 'unusual writing'

My suggestion is a word that we would use for a post that probably makes sense to the writer but absolutely no one else.

you guessed it ... it would be called 'a modestas'


like 'woah buddy, you just typed a Modestas there'

does that meet the standards of the forum ?


are there any else we can use ?
I whole-heartedly agree with coining the "modestas" term.

May I also add...

"The MD," "The Monster Dad," or just simply, "The Daddy."

This phrase would of course be describing anytime someone reveals a little too much information and/or body parts.
