Rob tries to take a rubber band out of Bucky's mouth, saying: "Is that a rubber band in you mouth? Rubber bands aren't food, Dude. Spit it out!" Bucky replies: "You can food anything if you just eat it!" Let me go!" Rob says: "You can what? The word food isn't a verb, Bucky." Bucky answers: "You can wordify anything if you just verb it." Rob comments: "....And then Bucky found another mind-numbing trend..." Satchel says: "Hear that, Buck? Your trendy!" Bucky replies: "Thank you. I watch the box with moving pictures."

My least favorite example of this is “adulting”. Ugh.
