Forced into My First Ever Team Estrogen Post by the evile (a favorite "word" of mine) Sadie Kate:

Evile
Ginormous
La De Frickin Da
(although, oddly, I do not care for "frickin" outside of this phrase all that much)

That's it for now.

And we don't allow any shenanigans that would make things discombobulated--anyone caught doing such will be defenestrated (and I'm sure the mere thought of this treatment would cause tachycardia)!

And one more thing: We don't want some numpty causing a stooshie with her palaver about "vehicular cycling" vs. other techniques! (This happens a lot on another forum)

SK,

I was chortling in my joy as I went galumphing down the road on my way to work today. Though there were a few times I went snicker-snack through the traffic. (OK, not really, but I love those words. I make my 7th graders read that poem every year.)

I remember my seventh grade teacher reading that aloud to us, I think it's my favorite poem. All that drama and action!


One of my most un-favorite favorite words is
BRASSIERE
