    Default Glee-glop and the floopty-doos

    "Dude I just spent the afternoon in Middle-earth with glee-glop and the floopty-doos." Glee-glop and the floopty-doos? What are those? Thank you very much!

    These are nonsense syllables that English-speaking people may use when they can't remember the proper name of someone or something, or to ridicule something or someone with a silly-sounding name.
