Arrggh, you weren't joking. Have to agree that it's worse than minty, at least minty is actually a word. What are we coming to? I only sell vintage stuff, and hope I never am tempted in some mad moment to use such words. Yuck! Oh well, to each his or her own, if it works for them, whatever!

I bid on something this afternoon that is described as MINTY. I am not kidding. I thought of the minty thread immediately!

Haha, back when I was teaching high school (many moons ago) a student turned in an essay coining the terms "tasky," "taskier" and of course, "taskiest."
"Listing on eBay feels taskier every day with their new restrictions."

Add to the list a few oldish and antique-like items also............
OLDISH
Not new, not old, but beat up.
More old than new.
Could be new, but looks old now.
In general, OLDISH is not a commitment to age at all, so no returns.
