New words ...

Each year, new words are added to the dictionary ... and I'm not sure how long it takes for the dictionary people to come knocking at your door after you have coined a word, or a term, but the people who came up with something to call the people who steal delivered parcels from people's doorstep (or wherever the delivery folk have left it) should be hearing the knock on their door any time. Their term? Porch pirates. It's a growing problem of course. I have been watching a few videos on YouTube lately about the elaborate lengths people go to to get back at people who steal their parcels or catch new porch pirates. I quite like the glitter bombs when they go off in their car or house ... or wherever. Better when they get caught on elaborate cameras set up in the "stolen" parcels - with the camera feed going to the cloud so it doesn't matter if they get rid of the actual camera. Smile!
