Exactly :-) Or to be less obtuse framster isn't supposed to mean anything in this context, hence how the sentence is an example of words being wrong. Also welcome to less wrong.
But this word do has a meaning, at least Google Translator tells me that in Norwegian it means "the residue". If you want meaningless word, the example should be like this "Socrates is a camipoundling". But "Socrates is a framster" sounds like "Socrates is an abasic", the sentence puts the subject in some weird category of objects.
Coincidence?
