Captain Cavechick's Impossible Puzzles #3

Puzzle Enthusiasticks! You’re back! (Or, is that your back?)
Oh, I kid! I kid. Listen. Thanksgiving is a time for Americans and Canadians alike (on a different date, that is) to give thanks and be merry around people we don’t get to see all that often.
Or, is that Christmas?
Whatever.
Regardless of what holiday we are talking about, I wish for you that your day is beautiful, and something special happens that makes a pretty memory that you’ll hold onto forever. Looking for a way to make that moment? Here’s a game to chime in at the Thanksgiving table, or maybe to laugh over in the Thanksgiving kitchen. I, Captain Cavechick, give you a game of…
Thanksgiving Balderdash...
iGlobe Style!
Below I have gifted you a list of nonsense words. That said, I do have a definition in mind for each of them. Even better news? This month, I give you two easy ways to make it on my Whoop! Whoop! Board for intellectual awesomeness!
Let’s be clear Right here: Captain Cavechick thinks it is intellectually awesome to know so much vocabulary you can make up your own definitions that sound Webster-worthy.
If she can do it, you bet you can do it! Just try!!
Stand up in the comments section and be heard!
The Way to Play #1: Come up with a unique definition for your favorite word or words below. Make sure to label the part of speech (noun, verb, adjective, adverb, etc…), give me a definition, and then use it in a sentence. Place your answer in the comments section below this article. Be entertaining, and I bet you’ll make it on the list of champs!
Need help coming up with definitions? Ask a parent or relative to help you! Don’t be shy. If they’re like Captain Cavechick’s parents, it’ll make them sooo strangely happy when you ask them for help…as opposed to just money.
Go figure?
Anyway, here is…
The Way to Play #2: Guess my definition for at least one of these words correctly. Put your answer in the comments section. I will respond to any comments very positively! Personally, I think it is cool if you just try.
Additionally, if:
a) you guess correctly my definition for even just one word, you make it on the board OR b) if your definition in my opinion is way more epic than what I came up with, that gets you an e-ticket to Whoop! Whoop! glory points!
I’ll give you a hint: I love Latin root words. Here’s another hint: what are two great tastes that go great together?
So are ya ready?
Are ya set?
BALDERDASH!!!!!
Go to work iGlobers!
Here are your words:
bror-
captiocalypse-
cluckadoose-
mevening-
chonilla-
salper-
Last thing I want to say before I wave ‘ciao’ is this: Ashley Loss is the first person of the year to make an attempt to make it on my board for intellectual prowess! Great job Ashley for solving my puzzles! It’s cool to be smart, and it’s even cooler to show it! To you, Ashley, I say job extremely well done!
Until I strike again,
This is Captain Cavechick…signing off!
