Here it is. The list of non-words. http://www.cloften.com/?page_id=61 Let me know what you think. Post your comments on this page below.
Thanks,

I think ginormous really is a word…. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/ginormous
A lot of those words were found on dictionary.com including gonna and irregardless. After a while I stopped trusting them as a quality reference. Irregardless, I love the mash-up words to superfundity.
I stand corrected
Furthermore, it may now be my goal to get anywho into dictionary.com.
how about youstacould? Get that one on there!!
Great list. Who woulda ever thunk you would turn out to be the grammar police…
Anywho, I would like to clarify a point on your favorite non-word (Anywho). You aren’t the only one who uses it. It was used as a one-word “catchphrase” on the ABC sitcome My Wife and Kids (Damon Wayans) by the super-intelligent next door neighbor kid (don’t know his name, but he was also one of the original “Heroes”) as he used it to scoff at his less intelligent neighbors. If it was good enough for ABC, I’m sure you can get it into the dictionary!
No trust, No bust…
dude you had me laughing out loud! this is awesomerrific. next you should do improper phrases like “could care less” … would be stupendous
Further use of anywho. Spelled ‘anyhoo’, this word was used multiple times throughout the “Twilight” series.
You’re not alone, Charlie.
