Pintlegudgeon

Pintlegudgeon: verb. There are two meanings to this word:

1. To flip-flop on an issue. Unsurprisingly this word was created by bored political satirists, who needed a particularly long-word to fill the speech bubble on a caricature of Warren G. Harding.
2. To give things names that immediately reveal which part is meant to resemble the male genitalia and which the female.
