FYI, this is the internet's first usage of the word "super-fragglistic" according to
google, it doesn't exist. Until now.

Sadly, super-fragglistic is not listed in "A Dictionary of Catch Phrases from the 16th Century to the Present Day."

Lisa S, whoat!? I submitted super-fragglistic to the Urban Dictionary. It should be appearing soon.

do you mean super-fragglistic-expialidocious? To me though, the sound of it is something quite atrosicous!
I was just going to say that.

Super-fragglistic is now on urbandictionary:
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=super-fragglistic
And yes mose and eliana, the meaning actually comes from a typo of Mary Poppins. But I'm not a big fan of Mary Poppins. In fact she kinda scares me. I rather like the reference to Fraggle Rock instead.

Of course by submitting this word to urbandictionary, I have now killed my potential #1 google search ranking for super-fragglistic. But somehow I think that people aren't looking for that word online.

How can Mary Poppins be scary?
