Spoise - the new noise

Spoise - a new word is born
noun (alt hip-hop spelling: spoize)

1. Noise made by a PC when you receive Spam.
2. The erroneous noises made by people who bore you.

-------------------------

I hereby claim the above word and definition to be entirely made up by me. The thought came to me when I was sitting on a porch the other night. It was a beautiful summer night and an amazing thunderstorm was starting to roll in. Nearby I could hear this digital "brrroing" every so often. Since I'm inquistive, I asked what the sound might be and was told that the nextdoor neighbour had his laptop next to the window and he had an audible alert for when he received email....

And that's how words get made....
