A good friend of mine wrote a journal that received a record number of comments.  As is typical with journals of this proportion, trolls were among us.  There was one particular troll who caught our attention with her (or his) poor grammar, and usage of the English language.  In all the confusion a word was born..."sporn". 

What exactly is a sporn you ask?  I am not quite sure.  Let's try and figure it out together, shall we? 

Is it a verb?  "Looky there, Somma dun sporned her some youngins!!!" (courtesy of aurorabunny)

Perhaps a noun?  "My sporn is super itchy.  Can you help scratch it?"

...or maybe it could be an adjective.  "All this talk of Joye's boobs has me feelin' a bit sporny."

Whatever context this word is to be used it sure has grabbed our attention. 

Can any of you think of additional ways this word can be used?

I'm pretty sure it's a short term for spoon-porn.

Sporn...well, you've already given many uses of the word and much food for thought.

It's a virtual Spornucopia up there, dood.

LOL!  <3 this post.  I think a sporn is definitely something that is itchy.

You did, Kristi, but it is so fun covering all the possibilities.  I think it is one who spurns porn.

I think I was involved in some sporning last night but I'm too hungover to recall it.

I think I've decided that "sporn" is a word I'm going to throw around randomly and see what it decides to become.

"I could really use some sporn right now."

"Hey baby, it's been a while...you ready to sporn with me?"

"That bitch makes me so mad I could just sporn her."

"Have you tried the sporn?  It's fantastic?"
