people who use nouns as verbs

I heard the following so far today:

"Me and X are gonna gym it later"

"That sounds cool, remind me to DVR (pronounced div-er) it"

"I'm sandwiching it for lunch"
 
GTA: Vice City

Jeremy Robard: Shut up! I have a condo, I have a hot tub, I've vacationed in Aruba.
Maurice Chavez: Vacation is not a verb, moron.
Jeremy Robard: Yes it is, because I'm a VIP. I'm very important. And I'm a teacher. A wise man. Not an opinionated dope, a naysayer sitting on the side of life, criticizing others, when all he can do is get a crappy gig down at a moron station. A man who lives with his mother.
 
You'd hate sitting in one of my math classes. I verberize a lot of nouns. Since "integrate" is fine for "find the integral of", I just take it a couple of steps further: "common denominatorize the fractions," etc.

Holy shit that's really annoying, though I've thankfully have not been exposed to such mockery of the English language.

I mockerize the language at every change I get.
 
I mostly agree. But the ones I do use are "google" and "dvr". Google is acceptable since it's s widely used, and dvr is the easiest term to use to describe what that does.
