It is an Onomatopoeia, you fill a jug full of water, hold it upside down w/ no cap, it makes a "glurbing" noise as it comes out, glurb glurb glurb.

edit spelling...

I doubt it could be copywrought. Copywrit? Anyway. The term in patents would be "prior art." "Glurb" has been used by many others before.

Seriously though, WTF's a glurb. Are you leaning more towards that being a verb over a noun?

Both. Like blog, it's both a noun and a verb.

Wasn't the word blog invented in the last couple of years?

The sound your girlfriend made last night ;)







Ok, I apologize for that, that was out of line. I actually was the one who made that noise ;)

It is the quantity of a thick, viscous substance that comes out when you try to pour a little of it.

"Dump a glurb of that wallpaper paste on the paper."

Make it something sexual, please. There simply aren't enough words in this language with sexual overtones or undertones.
