As I used it in a comment in a friend's locked post, I wondered: am I the only one that uses "cranking" to mean "expressing my crankiness," as in "I was cranking to [personal profile] mabfan this morning about the appearance of Halloween ads in August."

I know there are words in my idiolect that are solely mine (or, if they're used by others, they got it from me): obnoxia (the noun form of obnoxious: "I can't believe that guy's obnoxia!" (pronounced "ob-nausea")), snacquisition (the acquisition of snacks), and procrastikniting (knitting in order to avoid another project) are just three examples. So if it is just mine, I would completely believe it. I'm just curious.
