I was browsing through the search engine when I caught sight of a fanfic written by "The Piffle Princess" (not me though XD). This got me into thinking that perhaps "piffle" must actually mean something. I actually just got the term from Angelic Layer. I never really bothered to analyze if it has a connotation to it, but apparently, it does! ^_________^
I checked out dictionary.com and found this:
pif?fle?[pif-uhl]
–noun 1. nonsense, as trivial or senseless talk.
–verb (used without object) 2. to talk nonsense.
pif·fle
intr.v. pif·fled, pif·fling, pif·fles
To talk or act feebly or futilely.
n.
Foolish or futile talk or ideas; nonsense
piffle
n : trivial nonsense [syn: balderdash, fiddle-faddle] v 1: speak (about unimportant matters) rapidly and incessantly [syn: chatter, palaver, prate, tittle-tattle, twaddle, clack, maunder, prattle, blab, gibber, tattle, blabber, gabble] 2: act in a trivial or ineffective way
Interesting. I actually, unknowingly, chose a word which perfectly describes my blog. XD
Just as I unknowingly chose misaki as my online name, and later found out that it can actually mean "looking forward to a life of beauty", which also describes my personality perfectly.
How interesting. In fact, it's TOO interesting, I'm getting a bit freaked out. XD
