Ette and Teer Lexicon
[/u][/center]"I am truly honored to be your official Scribe-ETTE for the Lexicon of Ettes and Teers." said by Wenchie when she was appointed our Scribe-Ette.
"I would like to introduce Athena as my co-Scribe-ETTE.
After much talking and Riot's disease, we have come up with the following definitions. Bear with us, as we and the Lexicon are a work in progress." ~ Also Wenchie.
A Debaucheteer is one willing to kiss the lasses, offer a knee, accept and offer a squeeze or snuggle, or more. The 'teers are gentleman with a fine appreciation of the fairer sex, willing to let those lasses know that they are all special in their own way. Also known as Teer.
A Debaucherette willingly accepts the 'teers lap, kisses and responds in kind. The 'ettes enjoy the attentions given and show their appreciation in many ways which the 'teers greatly enjoy. Also known as Ette.
Auntie Ette--Our beloved Lady Nicolette, Ette confidante and purveyor of wit, wisdom, and a safe sanctuary for TNRF visitors. You will not find better music, conversation, or wine anywhere else. She does not live by the Ette Code herself yet is supported and accepted by the Ettes as one of their own. A Keeper of the Backstage Passes.
Daddy Teer--Deadbishop, who coined the term Debaucheteer and started the whole movement. One of the original triumvirate Debaucheteers. Forum Moderator/Administrator. Our Kilted Pyrate-Teer works hard to make all things right in the realm of Glenlivet, and has made (along with Vampiratette) our shiny badges of debauchery pins a reality! Also the Protector of the Ettes--think Godfather.
EtteMum--Fairyfly, one of the original Debaucherettes and Forum Moderator who got the ball rolling on Ette madness by kicking off the TNRF Ette Invasion in 2006. Lead whipped cream and cherry instigator of the in-person initiations.
Uncle Teer--We haven't worked this one over up yet.
BuffEtte--When a Teer samples the sweet delights each Ette has to offer. Unintentionally given by Grovdin Dokk, tweaked by Athena.
Cherrytoe--When a cherry is held over an Ette's head, the possiblities are numerous. From her cherry-Ette head to her cherry-Ette toes, and all the cherries in-between. Contributed by Sir Sean Daniels, RomanceTEER. Um..would that be Bing or Mt. Ranier?
To be Christophed--named for a certain Insulter in mind, when a man's eyes stray below the neck but above the waist. Not even going into how we got THAT one. Attributed to Captain Bacardi.
Ette Invasion--a gathering of Ettes, for the purpose of spreading good will and cheer among faires. Demonstrations of the proper way to eat frozen bananas, fliriting, a little havoc, a lot of mischief, a dash of mayhem. One Ette at a faire is an event, two Ettes is a spectacle and three or more is an Invasion. Tennessee Renfest is the premier meeting place but Ettes have been known to frequent other faires.
Ette-itude--the power to walk into a room like you own it. Even if you are only renting. Word by Spinster, thank you hon! Definition by the Scribe-ETTES.
*Scribe-ETTEs start singing--
She's got it yeah, Baby, she's got it
Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire
Ette-lag--the exhausted but satisfied feeling you get after an Ette invasion. It takes a while to rebound from it but it is so worth it! Unintentionally given to us by Kirk Hughes.
Ettes-in-Training--those with Ette qualities who must be nurtured. They start out with Cool Whip until they are ready for the real thing. Think of them as little training bras. *winks to Tigerfairy*
EtteVenture--a trip taken by an Ette where mischief and mayhem are sure to ensue and fun will be had by all. Brainstormed by our EtteMum.
Eye Candy--a sweet treat to the eyes.
(Eye) Candy wrapper--that which must be removed to enjoy the treat.
Faux-Teers--those who try to pass themselves off as teers but have not been initiated or nominated. Beware of these. They may look, feel and smell the same but when you get them up close, they are a pale imitation of the real thing. A true Teer is one that has the brand of the Ettes on him. And you can tell them by the smile on their faces. Brainstormed by Welsh Wench, Festmum and Deadbishop.
Flogger-failure--the inability of a flogger to stand up to an object harder than itself. Usually lets you down when you need it most. An experience shared by Welsh Wench and Captain Sean Daniels. Wow, that sounds so...wenchmouthy!
Frost-bitten--the proper application of an iced object to the area above a bodice and below the neck for the purpose of cooling off. Welsh Wench has been known to go through a cup of ice in less than an hour. On account of the heat. Temperature. Outside temperature. OH...you know what we mean.
Frozen Bananas--if we must explain this, turn in your Ette pin.
HUGTACKLE!!! ---an Ette's way of saying, 'I'm so pleased to meet you.' Better brace yourselves, you never know when one is going to bowl you over. And don't you dare step aside, an Ette in mid-air and crash landing is not a pretty sight. And hell hath no fury like a j'ETTE crash.
Initiation--sorry! The secret rites are kept under wraps until the actual event. Frequently mistaken for a bachelorette party. Festmum and Fairfly enlightened the misinformed in a way only Ettes can. Welsh Wench and Festmum were the first in-person initiates. It was...delicious to say the least.
Landing in the Handicapped Parking Space--what happens to a person after imbibing too much MFDJ and where he decides to land. A kiss on the ear to Darius Quintain, the inspiration for this. Lovely shade of green, Darius darlin'.
LETTE down feeling--when you don't get what you expect from an Ette. Minds out of the gutter, please! This was courtesy of Martin Montgomery.
LETTES-icon--a particular set of vocabulary listings and definitions that a person would need to pick up on an Ette. NOT pick an Ette up. Just to understand her. At least the way she speaks. Because you have to be an Ette to understand an Ette. And an Ette the Teers will never be. Thanks, Lady Nicolette!
MFDJ--an abbreviation of Mad ****** Duck Juice. A lethal libation brewed in a five-gallon gas can which is preferably new and not used. Guaranteed to bring a strong Teer to his knees. The Ettes do alright with it though. Silverfox is the Duck-Juice Brewmeister.
Newly'Ette Time---Term given to me by the newly-handfasted-- 'Doesn't keep a schedule', says Leinad, 'othwerwise occupied'--winked at me by Escarlata. (Winked back by the Scribe-ETTES)
Nubble--That action which occurs when Esc's nuzzle turns in to a nibble. This reaction can be caused by good smells, willing souls, or wandering hands. From the Queen of Nubbling herself-Escarlata!
Pillows--the product of a great bodice. Fluff. Don't punch.
Pre-Teers--those who have demonstrated qualities that Ettes appreciate but have not yet proven their mettle. They must be able to squirt Reddi-whip accurately at their intended target and place a cherry on top without getting cherry juice on the target's clothing. Or be willing to clean it off. Or offer to do her laundry.
S'mettes--This defies definition, best told in the form of a story.
Girls make S'mores by placing Hershey bars on graham crackers. Toast the marshmallows and place toasted marshmallows on Hershey bars to melt the chocolate.
Boys eat the Hershey Bars. They eat the marshmallows. Then they throw the graham crackers at the girls. Girls scream and run away.
Eventually the boy becomes a Teer and the girl becomes an Ette. The Teer decides there is a better use for these ingredients than making S'mores.
He devises his own recipe.
(1) Heat marshmallow with body heat.
(2) Heat chocolate on Ette.
(3) Watch it melt.
(4) Smush all together and enjoy.
Term coined by Spinster. Recipe by Sleepyarcher with Athena and Welsh Wench as the graham crackers test cooks.
Sp'ETTE-tacle--Two Ettes at the same faire. Fairly the same. But differETTE. Originated with Escarlata with Welsh Wench usually thrown in as her partner in crime.
Spleened --The feeling (some say slimy) one gets when encountering the illustrious Captain Dungeon Spleen. Credit to Athena, she would know. And she survived.
Stem Manipulation--Rolling, twisting, and manipulating the stem of a cherry into a knot. Certain Ettes have this talent...but a Teer who can do this is very special indeed. Ooh, good one, Athena!
The Succubus Effect--when you do things you normally wouldn't do when in the company of the Succubus or are within range of her scent of cinnamon and only realize afterwards exactly what that just looked like and immediately start hoping no one had a camera around at the time. Inspired by Escarlata, experienced by Fairyfly, Riot's Diseased by the rest of the Ettes and Teers. Captured by...hopefully no one!
Teeranny--when an Ette is overcome by the persuasions of a Teer. As given to me by Deadbishop.
Teer-na (fish) sandwench--the 'filling' when a Teer is sandwenched between two Ettes. Recipe was concocted and tried in the lanes at BARF one sunny afternoon. Cooked up by Escarlata and Welsh Wench, tested out by Leinad. Entry deemed worthy by Athena.
Teers-in-Training--those who are minorly not to the age of majority but will be a major Teer. A minor setback for major trouble.
TenETTEsee--the site of the first Ette Invasion, the scene of Ette Tu, and the designated spot for Menage Ette Trois. In spite of all of this, the shire of Covington Glen is still standing. Will it survive one more Frozen Banana Eating? Time will tell.
Whipped Cream and Cherries--what an Ette wears before, during and after an Ette Initiation. And just for the fun of it. Think Herb Alpert album cover.
Whiskers--Bust dusters. Thanks to Terry from BARF. Not a forum member but he gave us a demonstration.
