I like words formed by putting two seemingly unconnected words together - technology+entrepreneur, techpreneur, mompreneur etc. this jugalbandi fascinates me. The one that’s got me giddy as a schoolboy these days is what they started doing to the word ‘Vacation’. A THREAD 1/5

Work+Vacation, Workcation, stay+vacation, Staycation... Inspired by this I’ve come up with a few more. I invite you to add to this pile if you feel like it.
SNACKATION: taking a vacation while eating something, especially your words when you said nothing’s wrong.
2/5

SHIRKCATION: goofing off at work by dreaming of a vacation you can’t afford if you don’t finish what you are goofing off from in the first place.

SOFACATION: taking a short vacation on your sofa, away from your desk when you feel claustrophobic working from home.
3/5

BREWCATION: a fantasy vacation about your favourite brew while drinking your favourite brew.
ZOOMACATION: really micro vacations taken when you are present on a conference call but nobody expects you to contribute anyway. 4/5

DEFACATION: a vacation where you think you are having a great time but it’s really shitty for the rest of the world. Like this thread. Wait, isn’t that an old word already? 5/5
