Brexit??

This recently much-used term could spawn a few additions to our vocabulary. It may be that others have suggested similar words, but here are my suggestions.

Chexit – a cheque that bounces for lack of funds

Flexit – a guy who tries to display muscles he hasn’t got

Hexit – plans that didn’t work out

Nexit – an attempted embrace that earns a slap in the face

Trexit – former supporters that abandon Trump

Wrexit – and unlicensed teen who ‘borrows’ dad’s car

E-jexit – pushing the delete button on an unwanted email

There’s a place for a bit of humor to send a ray of light into the gloom of recent days.

How about rejexit for the person who benefits from all the good things that God has created (food, air, water, an amazingly complex body, a very dependable set of nature’s laws, etc.) and then wants justice when he/she is mistreated but thinks life can work well even if we ignore God’s moral law. But He keeps on loving us.

Keep on the sunny side of life,
