common words that aren't in dictionary?

[nix-j-c]

this quiz is too see how many words that people use that are preferably aren't slang like 'init' that people use that aren't in the dictionary. but if there are only a couple then people can start posting slang words.

this is my contribution, unhealthily. my teachers are always telling me off for using this word because its not in the dictionary. But is perfectly logical even though you can say less healthy and people still know what you mean. !!!!!!!!
