How about "warm-up-ocrat" for putrid? Honest. At an event I did last
summer, we only served lunch and I cooked all of it ahead of time. I was
teaching that morning, so one of the squires volunteered to cut up, heat
up and serve up the food. I was willing to call him the "feastocrat" -
however awful it is, it's still the accepted local appellation - but one
of our members hit the roof and said he hadn't made the feast and
promptly started calling him the "warm-up-ocrat". Arrrrrrgh!
