What the title says. My country is one of these, and I'm just wondering why that particular term is used. I'm also wondering about "Capitalizt." I understand all the others, more or less ("Corporate Bordello" is pretty obvious :wink: ).

Are those just Teh Gr34t Max Barry's terms, or did he get them from somewhere?

I'm not sure WHERE they came from, but this (http://alces.sel.uaf.edu/gregg/ns/nsmap.html) is what it means.
