thrux, n. The primary meaning of a communication, and simultaneously the critical factor in what it communicates. Furthermore, it carries the connotation that the speaker is too agitated about the subject matter to select between “thrust” and “crux”. Seeking a defensive position, and instinctively relying on the principle of offense as the best defense, they resort to a metaphoric combined attack involving swordplay and crucifixion.
Example: “The thrux of this agreement is that if you use undocumented features, we can’t support you.”
Encountered in the wild.

I like that. Of course I believe it used quit often by accident and accent. As in when ax’d a question I kud thrux u a answer.
I would like now to propose a verbal useage. “Thrux that”, “That is thruxed up”, or “If you want me to do it that way it will thrux”.
Yup, that would be the thrux of the mater. -d
Ah, yet another meaning, and a self-referential one at that.
