orderscript
/ˈɔːdəˌskrɪpt/nounVerified NewAlso in: Bestellskript (Deutsch) · pedidurgia (Español) · commandédie (Français)
The takeaway order recited from memory, in full, with modifications no menu ever printed.
The orderscript is held by one member and performed on Friday: two of the thing, one without onions, extra of the sauce, and "the usual drinks." The takeaway staff know the script better than the menu. When the holder is away, the household attempts it from memory, and the resulting order is spoken of for weeks.
Etym. — order + script — the memorized lines of the Friday performance.
