Fuckery
Is fuckery a word?

A customer used that today, while talking to me, at work.

I thought the Lounge would know.

:rofl:

3. How was it used?
As a descriptor for some kind of event? "That sort of fuckery will not stand."

Or as a place? "I'll meet you out by the fuckery."

Or in some other way.

4. She was complaining about something...

Honestly, I can't remember her exact wording. It was, I think, "What is this fuckery?" If I remember, we got to the bottom of the matter... eventually.

5. That's too bad
I like the idea of a place called the fuckery. Like a piggery or a rookery.

9. oh yes
I heard it here first when mcctatas sought our reaction to some "heinous fuckery" and I was immediately charmed by that turn of phrase. I love language and especially "language".

18. I'm pretty sure ratfuckery is a word
At least after the era of Karl Rove, it should be.

19. Wasn't that a line in "Othello"?
"Get thee to a fuckery!"

It sure has a ring to it.

22. I think you're right
That's exactly what Hamlet told Ophelia.

So there you have it. If Shakespeare wrote it, it MUST be a word.
