In commone parlance
I didn't realise you were referencing The Simpsons.

I first heard the word cromulant in an episode of The Simpsons that was about the forming of the town
and about how its founder had slain a buffalo.

I wondered if that was the connection you were making.

Ah, no, I think that's just a coincidence
(Though I do love the line "the buffalo was already tame, I merely shot it.")
I was referring to
Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo.
(Sadly the article fails to make judicious use of the word 'cromulent' in its description.)

Ahh.
Also bah, that has eight consecutive uses of a word and I only had five.

Eight is more than five.
