moofle?
Okay, so I'm almost certain that I independently invented the word moofle (it's a cross between moof, the sound the Dog Cow makes, and the suffix "le", used in words such as snorgle, waffle, or chucknorris).
Yet, it's been entered in the Urban Dictionary by someone else. WTF? Someone stole my invention. I knew I should've patented it. Or copyrighted it. Or trademarked it. Or whatever it is people do in such cases.
Update:
To prevent the same mistake from happening again, I submitted the following to Urban Dictionary for mooflecopter.

Like moofle (see: moofle) but with a 20% chance to cause disarming levels of confusion.
Example:
Alice: La la la Bob (holding a gun): Give me your lunch moneyz! Alice: mooflecopter! Bob (drops gun): ... I like kittens. Meow.
