Embiggening.

Embiggening.

Fair enough. But four syllables for a small movement. Anything simpler that describes the sliding action?
If you did it with your legs it would be 'splits' but as you do it with your finger could it be 'flits'? 'I flitted the pic.' 'I couldn't read my iPod email so I flitted it'.
Maybe we should award a prize.

Embiggening.

"A noble spirit embiggens the smallest man."

BTW - You will find embiggen used seriously in String Theory papers.

At least someone caught the reference.

I thinks it's called "stretch"...

Dude with iPad: Look at this hilarious picture of a dog wearing a hat!
Sad Friend without iPad: Stretch that out, dude.

 

[Minister of Truth]

I still like cunting.

Thanks for a simple, serious answer.

It occurred to me when faced with a very small pair of breasts that the same action should, by rights, make them a little bigger. No matter how I tried it didn't work.
