"Snarf"

My husband is a genius. No. I mean it. He knows so much and is so up to date with current events. The last time I read a newspaper, Gutenberg was setting the type by hand. So when he used the term "Snarf" I should have known better than to bet him it wasn't a real word.

The e-encyclopedia says:
Snarf is:
A character in the cartoon ThunderCats.
Snarf, a character from the animated television series Trollz.
The main character from SnarfQuest, a comic that ran in Dragon Magazine.
SNARF-1 - a fluorescent dye that changes colour with pH
An underground comic from Kitchen Sink Press

Who knew?

My contention is that he used it incorrectly. He said I "snarfed" at him. Nowhere in those explanations does it give a "verb" as an explanation. So, as Charles would say, theoretically, I am right. I guess I still owe him the $10. Oh well. It's only money. And, that leads me to the reality that I have lost my ATM card. That's another blogging altogether.
