Plotzing from too much internet

This may surprise many of you, but I used today's Word of the Day while talking to none other than... ASHLEY!  After spending much too much time on the Internet today, we've decided that when it comes to using random girl names in YouTube videos, the name Ashley takes the cake.  I'll explain.

plotz

\ plots \  , verb;

1. To collapse or faint, as from surprise, excitement, or exhaustion.

 

I'm going to be very delicate with this, because today's anecdote involves someone who may not be very happy or forgiving if she found out that she was mentioned this way in a blog.  So to protect the innocent, I'm going to change more than just names.  It's THAT legit.  

 

So Ashley has this class, where she's required to have this partner, and cannot switch for the whole year.  She sees her a lot and there's no getting away from her until the day we move out.  Well this partner of Ashley's is very closed off and set in her ways.  Not saying it's a bad thing, but it makes interacting with this girl very awkward.  By the way we are going to call this girl Nancy.  

 

Anyway, in spite of the fact that Ashley lives about 30 steps from my room, we were chatting over Skype (messaging not video chat, wow we're not that lazy) about Nancy and the various times she's whined about other people in this class over Twitter.  She is bugged by the littlest things considering how big the class is.  I then told Ashley, "If she were to start a convo with anyone in that class I'd plotz from surprise!"

 

It was here that Ashley inquired into the definition of plotz because it is so innovative and intelligent sounding that she did not know the meaning.  But, because it was so innovative and intelligent, she knew right away that is was the WoD.  I'm just obvious like that.
