[Ads-l] RES: Woty favourite?

[David Daniel]

Rumour has it that Brexit will be followed by Grexit, Departugal, Italeave,
Fruckoff, Czechout, Oustria, Finish, Slovlong, Latervia, Byegium but
Remainia will stay. (From a friend's Facebook post)

Back in February for my WSJ column I wrote about "Brexit," "Brexiter,"
"Brexiteer," "Bremain," "Bremainer," "Brexpert," etc.

In recent days many more spinoffs have been added, including "Regrexit,"
"Bregret," "Bremorse," etc. Probably worth its own special category in the
WOTY voting.
