    Potrzebie is actually a Polish word, though.
    By 'random', I was referring to its usage in the magazine. Veeblefetzer and Furshlugginer (among others) were occasionally used in the dialog, but Potrzebie was just worked in at random places, usually in the background in those early issues.

      Oh, sure! Absolutely!

      I don't remember if it was in the magazine, or a photo somewhere...but I think I recall seeing a car one time with a license plate that read PTRZBIE or something like that.

            There's a town down near the Austin, Texas area called Pflugerville.
