8	->''"Yu-Gi-Oh is sponsored by Yugi-O's. They're Yugi-licious. Wait a minute -- 'Yugi-licious?' Is that even a word?"''
9	-->-- '''Yami Yugi''', ''WebVideo/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries''
10
11	A variation of AbsoluteComparative that shows up mostly in children's commercials. An advertiser uses completely made-up adjectives to describe their product. Whether this invokes TotallyRadical or WeaselWords is up to the reader.
12
13	Almost always parodied outside the advertisements.
14
15	{{Portmanteau}}s with "delicious", "terrific", and "fantastic" see the most use; it's easy to append -icious, -ific, or -tastic to the end of any other word. This trope is often paired with LiteCreme.
16
17	Compare with PerfectlyCromulentWord.
18
19	----
20	!!Examples:
21	[[foldercontrol]]
22
23	[[folder:Advertising]]
24	* "Fruitilicious". In fact, -licious derivatives have been coined to well beyond the point of exhaustion.
25	* Some of the Trix flavors, including "[[ShapedLikeItself orangey orange]]" and "grapety purple."
26	* "Crunchitize", from Advertising/CapnCrunch.
27	* "Crunchtastic", [[TropeNamers obviously]].
28	* Some years ago now Jimmy Nail used to advertise Kodacolour Gold film as "Clicknologically superbluous" before the tag line "[[Creator/EastmanKodak Kodak]]: We have the clicknology. (SFX: camera clicking)".
29	* Kraft Cheese Crumbles used "Crumbelievable", to the point of employing a re-recorded version of EMF's "Unbelievable" as its jingle. The commercials themselves were memorably mock-celebrated by Stephen Colbert on ''Series/TheColbertReport''.
30	* Wonka-brand "Scrumdiddlyumptious Bars". The "Wonka-brand" is actually made by Nestle, but it's also a clear send up of a product from Creator/RoaldDahl's ''Literature/CharlieAndTheChocolateFactory'', in a case of {{Defictionalization}}. Interestingly, Dahl coined the term "scrumdiddlyumptious" as a means of {{satir\|e}}ising this type of language, but the [[Film/WillyWonkaAndTheChocolateFactory 1971 film adaptation]] was ''specifically'' greenlit to [[MerchandiseDriven market candy bars]] (including this one), so the marketing people totally missed how Dahl was skewering them.
31	** Dairy Queen had the remarkably similar "Scrumpdillyicious".
32	* "Crispity-Crunchity-Peanut-Buttery Butterfingers!"
33	* ''Taco Bell'' and other fast-food restaurants advertising "melty cheese" on their products -- which is about as meaningful as hawking "pourable water."
34	* Taco Bell also had a commercial where three patrons attempt to come up with the perfect adjective to describe the chain's latest item: a combination taco/burrito with melted cheese between the two shells. They go through "smunchy" (soft/melty/crunchy) and "crufelty" (crunchy/soft/melty) before settling on "cruncheweesy" (crunchy/chewy/cheesy).
35	* Comcast is, apparently, "Comcastic!" Fun fact: Users of Comcast have described their service as "Comcastic" before it became the ad slogan. And when they said it, they meant "My internet is going down and/or being slow for absolutely no discernible reason." It's [[AppropriatedAppellation Comcastic]]!
36	* One Subway ad calls its sandwiches "freshalicious". Another referred to its meatball sandwiches as "splodgilicious". A more recent ad at one point describes the sandwiches as "flavorocious".
37	* Hubba Bubba Bubble Gum decided that the words 'funbelievable' and 'unbelievabubble' just weren't ''crazy'' enough for their product, so they took pride in informing us that it was "FUNBELIEVABUBBLE!"
38	* One that actually became a real word is "dependability," invented by the Dodge brothers to sell their trucks in the 1910s.
39	* Budweiser gives us "drinkability". Way to set the bar low there, guys.
40	** Of course, given some of the beers at [[ATankardOfMooseUrine precisely one price point below]]...
41	* There are a couple of porn sites that have used the word "[=MILFtastic=]"...
42	* The Advertising/{{Volvic}} commercials, source of many a YouTubePoop: "I'm filling my water with Volcanicity!"
43	* ESPN did a series of NBA commercials. One of them featured Shaquille O'Neil's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bo0ncg-2zPY vocabulary]].
44	* Dairylea used to be called "calciyummy", without ever indicating why that might be a good thing.
45	* Chuck E. Cheese's is now apparently "funified".
46	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4kHmbZTvyI This can of nightmare fuel]] from Kinder Surprise contains mostly gibberish, but "chockadooobie" could qualify.
47	* Nestle Crunch used to use this following jingle:
48	--> "Scrumptuous! 'Cause it's '''crunchous'''! That's why I like Nestle Crunch!"
49	* Nissan ran an advertising campaign around the concept of combining words to make new ones, such as "Luxurious" and "Durable" to make "Luxurable". The best was undoubtedly "Spafe" (a combination of spacious and safe". ''Series/TopGearUK'' naturally pointed out that it was just "Shiny and Bright"
50	** Also leading, in some areas, to the car in question immediately becoming known as "the Fugly"
51	* Why does Avo Classic Frozen Guacamole taste so good? Because it's Fresherized!
52	* Snickers' most recent campaign not only makes up words, but gives them definitions. Such as ''substantialiscious'': the weight of something when you weigh it on your tongue.
53	* Coco Pops (The UK's equivalent of Cocoa Puffs) briefly changed their name to "Choco Crispies", because, according to the accompanying advert, they are "crispalicious"
54	* Ariel washing capsules are "Brrrr-illiant" because they will clean at a low temperature.
55	* "Swapportunity" - the opportunity to swap a higher-calorie dessert out for a low-fat cup of Yoplait Light. This one may have been tongue-in-cheek LampshadeHanging, since at least some of the ads show someone pushing it ''waaayy'' too hard.
56	* Apple Cinnamon Cheerios - "It's Applelicious..." "...and Cinnamoncredible!"
57	* Early UsefulNotes/McDonalds ads called Ronald [=McDonald=] "the world's newest, silliest and hamburger-eatingest clown!"
58	* During TheSeventies, Chrysler advertised their luxury cars as being upholstered with soft "Corinthian Leather". Corinth is a highly industrialized Greek city that has never hosted cattle farming or a leather-working industry -- it was in fact the perfectly normal leather from their Newark supplier. ("{{Joisey}} Leather" probably didn't have the same ring to it.)
59	* A local flooring company in Pennsylvania has a commercial in which a baby is used as the "spokesperson" to advertise that the new floors in her home are resistant to "Kidtastrophes."
60	* An advertising campaign by the dairy industry featured an anthropomorphic "Magic Cow" who suggested using drink mixes to flavor milk. [[note]]Nestle had this all along for chocolate and strawberry, but this ad suggested grape, orange, or cherry drink mixes as well.[[/note]] The concoctions were described as "Stirrific".
61	* Chuck Wagon dog food was once advertised as "crunchewy", since it included both crunchy and chewy kibble.
62	[[/folder]]
63
64	[[folder:Fan Works]]
65	* Characters in ''FanFic/MyImmortal'' occasionally say things "preppily" or "gothically". Ebony and Draco regularly do things "sexily" - mostly things which aren't particularly sexy, such as crying, summoning broomsticks, and jumping in front of bullets. Tara also likes to attach "wisely" to Dumbledore's actions. Apparently, "You dunderheads!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" can be screamed "wisely".
66	[[/folder]]
67
68	[[folder:Film]]
69	* It's not just a great day in the 1977 Disney musical ''Film/PetesDragon1977'' - as the song says, "It's a brazzle dazzle day!" The TagLine was actually "Brazzle Dazzle Brilliance!"
70	* "[[Film/MaryPoppins Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious]]", though at least they admit the sound of it is really quite atrocious...
71	* ''Film/ChittyChittyBangBang'' is a fantasmagorical machine!
72	* The people of ''Film/INowPronounceYouChuckAndLarry'' find it "fabulicious".
73	* ''Film/KungPowEnterTheFist'': "Killing is wrong. And bad. There should be a new, stronger word for killing. Like badwrong, or badong. Yes, killing is badong. From this moment, I will stand for the opposite of killing: gnodab."
74	* ''Film/BillyMadison'': "What do you think of that, Mr. Blue Duck?" "That's quacktastic!"
75	* ''Film/TheSmurfs'' combines this with {{Smurfing}} when Smurfette calls Patrick Winslow's dressing up for work "smurfalicious".
76	* ''WesternAnimation/WreckItRalph'' has "Turbotastic!", the catchphrase of game character Turbo.
77	* ''Film/CannibalTheMusical'' parodied earlier musical examples with [[http://youtu.be/0CizU8aB3c8 "Shpadoinkle"]].
78	* Alex, the elder daughter in ''Film/BlueSky1994'', has a tendency to invent words by combining smaller words, such as "turnkiss" when the boy she's dating surprises her with a kiss mid-conversation.
79	[[/folder]]
80
81	[[folder:Literature]]
82	* OlderThanRadio: In ''Literature/LePereGoriot'' (1835), by Creator/HonoreDeBalzac, set in 1819, some characters have a habit of adding "-orama" to the ends of words, for example (in translation from the French) "souporama", "healthorama" and so on. Apparently this was based on a real linguistic fad of the time that followed the invention of the "diorama" and the "panorama".
83	* Creator/EnidBlyton often used "delumptious" and "scrumplicious", two different portmanteaux of "delicious" and "scrumptious". These were also referenced in ''Literature/GoodnightMisterTom''.
84	* Roald Dahl made fun of this in ''Literature/CharlieAndTheChocolateFactory'' with sweets like the "Scrumdiddlyumptious Bar" and the "Whipplescrumptious Fudgemallow Delight."
85	[[/folder]]
86
87	[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
88	* ''Series/ArrestedDevelopment'': Tobias wants to remind everybody that he is educated as both an analyst and a therapist, and thus his business-cards reads: Tobias Fünke, M.D.: [[TheProblemWithPenIsland Analrapist]].
89	--> "It's 'aNALrapist'!"
90	* Variation: In a ''Series/SaturdayNightLive'' sketch parodying ''Series/InsideTheActorsStudio'', Will Ferrell as James Lipton feels that Charles Nelson Reilly's acting is so incredible that he must invent a word to describe it. The word: "Scrumtrillescent."
91	** The practice was parodied in another ''Series/SaturdayNightLive'' sketch involved an advertising jingle for the "Nuterrific" bar. The jingle consisted largely of this kind of descriptor, ending with "It's NUT very good!"
92	** In the "Taste Test" sketch with Creator/MelissaMcCarthy as an overly enthusiastic focus group member. She makes up the word "Jacktastic!" to describe Hidden Valley Ranch's new Pepper Jack Ranch salad dressing, in an attempt to win $50 for the best comment.
93	* This is a recurring sketch on ''Late Night With Creator/ConanOBrien'' called "Fantastic!" Conan will describe what guests/band is going to be on the show the next day and an enthusiastic "audience"' member says "That's fantastic!" and proceeds to add "'tastic!" on to every thing he describes. ("Creator/OmarEpps? That's Epps-tastic!"). However, when Conan describes the normal show's events from the show (such as the "hilarious monologue" and "zany comedy bits"), the man goes quiet or starts doing something unpleasant (such as drinking from a bottle of bleach). Finally, Conan asks the man if he likes the guest but thinks everything else is some negative adjective and the man adds a "-tastic!" to that too. "Not crap. Craptastic!" Or "Not boring, Bortastic!"
94	* Dr. Cox from ''{{Series/Scrubs}}'': "I megaloathe you all."
95	* ''{{Series/Eureka}}'' Nathan Stark about Carter: "Yes, he said ''invisibling''."
96	* ''Series/DoctorWho'': "Oi, chavtastic again!"
97	* Season 5 of ''Series/ProjectRunway'' had Blaine, who constantly applied "-licious" to words.
98	* During a ''Series/MrShow'' sketch in which UsefulNotes/SanFrancisco is being renovated into "New San Francisco" by the MegaCorp [=GloboChem=], a corporate executive gives a lifeless speech telling the audience, "When you see the New San Francisco... you'll say... 'San Frantastic.'"
99	* One perp on ''Series/BarneyMiller'' is a GrammarNazi who vandalizes an ad agency office out of frustration with this trope. He sarcastically suggests calling kosher dill pickles "the ko-ko-kosherest'', which the agency rep thinks is a seriously good idea. The man's appalled, even though the agency drops charges out of gratitude. (Episode "[[Recap/BarneyMillerS7E11 The Psychic]]")
100	* In the Creator/CBeebies programme ''Grandpa In My Pocket'', Jason often calls things 'Fabodicalous!' and 'Wonderbubble!'.
101	* The [[Series/MightyMorphinPowerRangers first year]] of ''Franchise/PowerRangers'' introduced the word "[[TotallyRadical morphenomenal]]"; that one faded out pretty quickly, though the phrase gets a [[ContinuityNod nod]] every now and then, usually during episodes celebrating series milestones. [[note]][[Series/PowerRangersWildForce Cole]] uses it during "Forever Red" when [[HeroWorshipper awestruck]] by the reality of battling alongside none other than Jason himself. Adam, who was introduced ''after'' "Morphenomenal!" fell out of use, [[BondOneLiner gets a crack at it]] when he nearly disposes of Thrax, coincidentally the son of Rita and Zedd, in [[Series/PowerRangersOperationOverdrive "Once a Ranger."]] Then, [[Series/PowerRangersDinoCharge Tyler]] [[Recap/PowerRangersDinoChargeForgedUnderFire at one point]] describes his [[SuperMode T-Rex Super Charge]] as such.[[/note]]
102	[[/folder]]
103
104	[[folder:Music]]
105	* Music/DestinysChild has (and is) "Bootylicious".
106	* Music/{{Fergie}} is Fergalicious.
107	* [[Music/GeorgeClinton Parliament-Funkadelic]] should probably be canonized as the patron saints of this trope, insofar as it refers to music. ''Supergroovalisticprosifunkstication!''
108	** Music/{{Outkast}} named their debut album ''Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik'', presumably on influence from Clinton & co.
109	[[/folder]]
110
111	[[folder:TV Tropes]]
112	* {{Anvilicious}}
113	* {{Stripperiffic}}
114	* {{Troperrific}}
115	* {{Narm}}tastic and {{Narm}}tacular.
116	[[/folder]]
117
118	[[folder:Video Games]]
119	* Spiky Joe, a side-character from, ''VideoGame/PaperMarioTheThousandYearDoor,'' has this to say: "When I thinks something's cool, I always say it's "spiketastic'! ...It might catch on."
120	* The three beach fish girls in ''[[VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiSuperstarSaga Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. Some of the words they came up with? 'Wonderfied' and 'Grandular'
121	* "[[Franchise/RatchetAndClank It's Qwarktastic!]]"
122	* ''VideoGame/DeusEx'' advertises the cigarette brand Holy Smokes! as "savioriffic".
123	* A variation used in ''Videogame/FinalFantasyX2'':
124	--> '''Brother:''' How things going down there?
125	--> '''Rikku:''' The situation...it's disasterrific!
126	--> '''Brother: (over com device)''' Disasterific not a real word! Say "disastrous" like the rest of Spira!
127	** Yuna then takes the word and the trope is played straight via this exchange.
128	--> Brother: [over com, hysterically] What happened? Is Yuna okay?!
129	--> Yuna: Things are, ow, [slight sarcasm] disasterrific.
130	--> Brother: Disasterrific? I am on my way!
131	--> Rikku: [staring up in disbelief] What about me?
132	* Netting 5 kills in a row in ''Franchise/{{Halo}}'' multiplayer earns you a "Killtacular" medal. Things escalate from there:
133	** 4 kills: Overkill
134	** 5 kills: Killtacular
135	** 6 kills: Killtrocity
136	** 7 kills: Killimanjaro
137	** 8 kills: Killtastrophe
138	** 9 kills: Killpocalypse
139	** 10 kills: Killionaire!
140	* ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration'' has AscendedFanboy Ryusei Date, who believes that one particular SuperRobot is "so ridiculously sweet... It's sweetdiculous!"
141	* In ''VideoGame/HouseOfTheDeadOverkill'', scoring enough consecutive hits without missing a shot sends your character into "Goregasm" mode.
142	* In ''[[VideoGame/PunchOut Doc Louis's Punch-Out!!]]'', Doc will sometimes take a break in the middle of a fight to eat one of his beloved chocolate bars, healing himself back up. Upon taking a bite, he proclaims that the bar is "choctastic" or "choclicious".
143	[[/folder]]
144
145	[[folder:Webcomics]]
146	* From ''Webcomic/StickmanAndCube'': [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Stickman_and_Cube/index.php?p=270124 Cube-O's. Just like regular O's, but CUBE-TACULAR!]]
147	* And there's an instance in ''Webcomic/VGCats'' where they combine fast food and ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'' to make Kentucky Firaga Chocobo, with a side dish of moogle pom-poms. "They're kuporiffic!" Funny if you know that "kupo" is a Polish expletive.
148	** [[http://www.vgcats.com/comics/?strip_id=285 Another comic]] parodies the "dumbass fratboy gamer" stereotype by giving two such individuals a game review show. Every level of their grading scale is a normal word appended with "bro", culminating in a perfect score being labeled "Broseidon, God of the Brocean".
149	* [[http://www.irregularwebcomic.net/polls/poll0387.html This]] ''Webcomic/IrregularWebcomic'' poll question.
150	* ''[[http://community.livejournal.com/mspaint_lolz/2487.html Howse!!!]]'' Dr. Eric "Crankypants" Foreman says:
151	--> "There aren't actually enough words in the English language to fully describe how much I hate you. So I made up a couple. "Detestispize" seems to sum it up the best."
152	* About halfway through ''Webcomic/EightBitTheater'', Black Mage finds that there is no longer a word to describe how much he hates Fighter, and so requests for Red Mage to [[http://www.nuklearpower.com/2005/06/23/episode-567-paralinguistics/ propose several choice words]] for the occasion before Black Mage settles on ''Omniloathe''. Then Fighter gets in on the word-making action himself, ''ultrabuddy''.
153	* Quite effectively satirized in [[http://www.schlockmercenary.com/d/20100128.html these]] [[http://www.schlockmercenary.com/d/20100129.html two]] ''Webcomic/SchlockMercenary'' strips... 'foodsmarts' clearly doesn't describe the marketing director's brain.
154	* ''Webcomic/PennyArcade'' presents [[http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2011/1/3/ Tycho's reaction to Tropicana "snackifying" drinks]].
155	* ''Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick'': "[[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0067.html Karma-riffic!]]"
156	* In [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20051017 this]] ''Webcomic/GirlGenius'' strip, Lars is seen eating a bag of candy fish, that are billed as "Pisca-licious!"
157	* It's really [[http://starslip.chainsawsuit.com/starslip/starslip-number-594/ not a good idea]] to try this on [[Webcomic/{{Starslip}} Obdrath von Lucifuge]].
158	[[/folder]]
159
160	[[folder:Web Original]]
161	* WebVideo/SailorMoonAbridged's comedy is based largely in mocking the bad (and often downright bizarre) English Dub. Which happened to be full of these. For example:
162	-->'''[[IdiotHero Serena]]:''' Oh, c'mon, Luna! Don't be such a stoigemeister!
163	-->'''[[TalkingAnimal Luna]]:''' A ''what?!''
164	-->'''Serena:''' [[LampshadeHanging I like making up words!]] [[RefugeInAudacity Fudgecracklesnot!]]
165	* The Powerthirst commercials. Observe: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qRuNxHqwazs&feature=related]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-3qncy5Qfk&feature=related]]
166	-->Now with preposterous amounts of testosterone. '''PREPOSTERONE.'''
167	* Strong Bad from WebAnimation/HomestarRunner has coined "extracurriculariffic", and his Sblounskched! candy bar has a "crispety, cookety log" in the middle (a cookie center hollowed out to make room for more "candy matter"). There's a lot more. In fact, the Homestar Runner Wiki has a page devoted to all the made-up words!
168	* ''[[WebVideo/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series]]'' is Yugi-licious! Yami then goes to on to question whether that means that it tastes like Yugi and how they would even go about testing that [[BlackComedyCannibalism (besides the obvious method)]].
169	* ''WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged''
170	-->'''Reporter 2:''' Mr Kent, if you had to come up with a word for how dead he is, what would it be?\
171	'''Mr Kent:''' Cadaveriffic!
172	** Repeated by Freeza in episode 33.
173	* [[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall Linkara]] has taken to making up new words to describe how terrible the comic he's reading is, like Idiostuperific.
174	* {{Website/Cracked}} writers are also famous for their use of these sorts of words, although {{Creator/Seanbaby}} and Gladstone are particularly notable.
175	* According to a legion of fans he didn't even know he had, WebAnimation/DrTran is "Trantastic".
176	* ''WebAnimation/{{Chadam}}'': Ripley coins the term "Drawsome", as a blend of "Drawing" and "Awesome".
177	* Digital Foundry's Richard Leadbetter described the Xbox Game Pass subscription service "value-riffic" in "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94O6o6yOGgA&t=140s Xbox Series S vs Series X Console Review: Can The Cut-Down Console Cut It?]]".
178	[[/folder]]
179
180	[[folder:Western Animation]]
181	* Parodied by ''WesternAnimation/{{Freakazoid}}'', which introduced audiences to the phrase "{{Toyetic}}".
182	* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'':

184	** In "Homer Loves Flanders", Homer describes a [[ItMakesSenseInContext waffle he thought was God]] as "sacrilicious."
185	** In the episode 'Homie the Clown', Krusty had an informercial in which late NFL player Johnny Unitas showcased a mustache trimmer for women:
186	-->'''Unitas:''' So what do you think of the 'Lady Krusty Mustache Removal System', Angelique?\
187	'''Angelique:''' It's Krustariffic, Johnny Unitas, but is my upper lip supposed to bleed like this?\
188	'''Unitas:''' Probably.
189	** In "King Size Homer", Homers turns to [[BackAlleyDoctor Dr. Nick]] for help gaining weight so that he can work at home on disability, and Dr. Nick points him to "the neglected food groups, such as the whipped group, the congealed group, and the chocotastic".
190	* Parodying his commercial work toward the end of his life, ''WesternAnimation/TheCritic'' had Orson Welles shilling for frozen peas, which were full of "Country goodness and green pea-ness," which the legendary actor himself realizes is a terrible slogan.
191	** Based on a real life event, although the original lacks the pea-ness.
192	** ''WesternAnimation/TheCritic'' also features this phone call from Ted Turner CaptainErsatz Duke Phillips: "What about that other word I invented: 'Dukelicious'? Nobody's using it? What a Duketastrophe."
193	** Jay Sherman once described Lorenzo's Oil as a mixture of fantasy and crap. "I dubbed it 'Fantacrap!'"

198	** Even before that, in the episode "Applebuck Season," Pinkie Pie refers to Applejack diverting a stampede of cows from Ponyville as "Appletastic."
199	** The eponymous Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000 is apparently "Icantbelievable". Mind you, what kind of advertising did you expect from the ''Flim Flam'' Brothers?
200	* Done in ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'' when Sokka was on his MushroomSamba thanks to Cactus juice. Apparently nothing is quenchier.
201	--> ''"It's the quenchiest!"''
202	--> ''"Nothing's quenchier!"''
203	* In the ''{{WesternAnimation/Futurama}}'' episode "Fry and the Slurm Factory", Glurmo, owner of said factory, talks like this.
204	-->'''Glurmo:''' I'm Glurmo, your golly-rific guide to the splen-tacular Slurm factory!
205	** As shown in "A Head in the Polls", the two main political parties of the United States apparently mutated into the Fingerlicans and the Tastycrats.
206	* The madly grinning cheerleader in ''WesternAnimation/{{Fillmore}}'' at one point describes an X-shaped cookie as being "X-Middle-Schoolicious!" She subsequently manages to get away with "snackabacktacular!"
207	* In an episode of ''WesternAnimation/TheFairlyOddparents'', a doll version of Timmy that Vicky gives to her dog says "I'm low fat and boylicious!".

209	* ''The Funtastic World Of Creator/HannaBarbera'' was a 1985 syndicated umbrella package of three new shows (''WesternAnimation/YogisTreasureHunt, WesternAnimation/GaltarAndTheGoldenLance'' and ''WesternAnimation/PawPawBears''.) It would expand as the years went on and include off-network repeats of old HB shows. The term "funtastic" is even used in the opening of ''Yogi's Treasure Hunt''.
210	** Going back even further, CBS used "funtastic" as their tagline for their 1969-70 Saturday morning line-up.
211	* Muffy on ''WesternAnimation/{{Arthur}}'' has used the word "vomitrocious."
212	* In the ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'' episode "Employee of the Month", Raven finds the steak mascot at Mega Meaty Meat quite disturbing.

214	* ''WesternAnimation/RosiesRules'': Rosie frequently uses 'supertastical' and 'wowmazing.'
215	[[/folder]]
216
217	[[folder:Real Life]]
