frumstration and hyperfrumstration

[holmslaw]

I think I have invented two new words - frumstration and hyperfrumstration.

Frumstration is the feeling you get when after many hours of planning, discussion, choosing materials etc for a project. You decide to check with experts on a forum and the general consensus is that your proposal is a total nonsense and that a seven year old could have come up with a better idea.

Hyperfrumstration is when you refuse to accept the criticism and stubbornly persist on your crazy project despite knowing in your heart that these experts probably do know better.

edit - new word - defrumstration - when hyperfrumstrated project actually works

But what if you were right and the project is a success, lol ?

That would be defrumstration.
