VERBBLE

Ahhh, the empty toilet paper tube, used in our home for an infinite variety of crafty objects, this fine but otherwise worthless item finds its best use as instant entertainment for bored and restless children. This verbble and noun were created long ago by my brother, a fan of sniglets.

Derder - to place an empty paper towel or toilet paper tube to one's lips and perform a royal fanfare.

Usage
"As soon as they arrive, that's your cue to derder."
"If that kid derders one more time I'll kill him."
"You can tell by the wet cardboard, it's been derdered."

Interestingly, it is also the noun for describing the empty paper towel or toilet paper tubes, themselves. The lack of anything other than the three word term, paper towel tube, led to this sniglet.

Usage
"You can tell by the wet cardboard, that derder has been derdered."
