'''Splange''' (noun, pronounced ''splanj'') is a general term describing a semi-solid/semi-liquid aggregate of largely unidentifiable material.

==Origin==
The term, '''splange''', was coined by [[REDdimension Wiki Circle]] member, [[Cory Patrick]], in the winter of 2008 at a regular [[Margarita Friday]] at Mi Toro mexican restaurant in Jacksonville, Florida.

Cory had ordered a combination platter which was to include a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chile_relleno chile relleno], which is generally agreed upon as some variety of stuffed pepper. Instead, though, Cory's meal arrived with what appeared to be an aggregate of shredded hamburger, white cheese and pepper chunks, heated to melting and fired onto the plate from the muzzle of a food cannon.

Expressing his displeasure at the unexpected appearance of his chile relleno, Cory was heard to say, "That's not a chile relleno, that's just... splange!"

The term, both in sound and suggestive reference, seemed to perfectly characterize the condition of the entree.

==Usage==
'''Splange''' has since been diversified in usage to describe any viscous material not immediately identifiable.

:'''Example 1''': ''"What the hell is that splange on your window?"''
:'''Example 2''': ''"There's some splange on your backpack."''

'''Splange''' is versatile enough to also be used as a verb, showing the action of the application of a splange-like material.

:'''Example 3''': ''"Dude, you just splanged all over my desk!"''

'''Splange''' (noun, pronounced ''splanj'') is a general term describing a semi-solid/semi-liquid aggregate of largely unidentifiable material.

==Origin==
The term, splange, was coined by [[REDdimension Wiki Circle]] member, [[Cory Patrick]], in the winter of 2008 at a regular [[Margarita Friday]] at Mi Toro restaurant in Jacksonville, Florida.

The two were discussing the wasted and time-killing dialog which takes place between a person with no writing instrument (''Person A'') who needs to write something down in a hurry (i.e. phone number, quick note, etc.) but has no preference for instrument and the person who has writing instruments available for loan (''Person B'') but is over-eager to provide just the right one.

:'''Person A''': (waving to get attention) ''"Hey, do you have a pen?"''
:'''Person B''': ''"I have a pencil, but no pen."''
:'''Person A''': (aggravated) ''"Good, a pencil, that's fine. Can I use your pencil?"''
:'''Person B''': (irritated) ''"Well, why didn't you say 'pencil' then? Don't get aggravated at me."''
:'''Person A''': (exasperated) ''"Because it didn't make any difference. Can I have the pencil now, please?"''

The case in point here is that Person A just needed to jot something down, and it made no difference with what. Person B was just trying to be efficient, because sometimes, if someone asks for a pen and you offer a pencil, it may be refused because a pen is required for the task.

'''Scrit''' remedies this problem. By asking for a scrit, you are in effect saying, "I need to write something down, and pretty much any sort of standard writing instrument, including but not limited to pen, pencil, magic marker or a Sharpie, will do. A highlighter won't cut it because of course I probably won't be able to read that. An inkwell and quill is right out, though."

==Usage==
'''Scrit''' is used in place of a specific writing instrument. For example, here it is used in place of "pen" in the example from above.

:'''Person A''': (waving to get attention) ''"Hey, do you have a scrit?"''
:'''Person B''': (tossing a marker) ''"Sure, here's a purple pen."''
:'''Person A''': ''"Thanks."''

'''Splange''' (noun, pronounced ''splanj'') is a general term describing a semi-solid/semi-liquid aggregate of largely unidentifiable material.

==Origin==
Necessity is the mother of invention, and the need for this word facilitated its creation by [[Jason Harden]] and [[Jon Reddick]] during the fall of 1990 while roommates at Florida State University.

The two were discussing the wasted and time-killing dialog which takes place between a person with no writing instrument (''Person A'') who needs to write something down in a hurry (i.e. phone number, quick note, etc.) but has no preference for instrument and the person who has writing instruments available for loan (''Person B'') but is over-eager to provide just the right one.
