namestickerregime

/ˈneɪmˌstɪkəˈrɛdʒiːm/nounVerified New

Also in: Namensetikettenregime (Deutsch) · etiquetramo (Español) · étiquirégime (Français)

The labeling system that governs every item a child owns, enforced by a hand-held printer.

The namestickerregime tags jumpers, bottles, and one shoe in each pair. Its authority holds until the sticker meets the dishwasher, and its failures are mourned at the lostpropertyorbit. Each September the regime is restocked, and the printer is found, eventually, in the office drawer.

Etym. — name sticker + regime — the administration of ownership.

Rel. — lostpropertyorbit · jumperswapcraft
