The Founding Father of Everything Biblio (Except Blogging)


I have always wanted to be the founding father of something.  And, recently I have realized that there is biblioblogging of which I am a part, but there is a lack of other things “biblio,” or at least that are labeled as such (which is really the most important thing).  Therefore, I am staking my proverbial flag in the ground and declaring myself the founding father of:

  1. Bibliotweeting – This is using Twitter in relation to Biblical Studies.
  2. Bibliofacebooking – This is using FaceBook in relation to Biblical Studies.
  3. Bibliodriving – This is when I listen to material related to Biblical Studies while I am driving or even think about Biblical Studies related issues while driving.
  4. Biblioexercising – I dabble in this only occasionally, but this is when I listen to material related to Biblical Studies while I am exercising or even think about Biblical Studies related issues while exercising.
  5. Bibliodrinking – This is when I think about or discuss Biblical Studies related topics when drinking caffeinated beverages or non-caffeinated beverages (of a certain kind).
  6. Biblioshowering – This is when I think about issues related to Biblical Studies in the shower.
  7. Biblio* – The asterisk is a wildcard, so that henceforth anything prefixed with “biblio” not already taken (like bibliography) I am the founding father of it though (so this cannot be turned into a parody) only at my discretion.*

It really doesn’t matter if you have been doing these things longer than me.  I am their founder.  It only matters that I have laid claim to these terms.  All violations of copyright will be pursued in the court of law.
