I do because I looked it up. And that wasn't easy, because the word isn't even in OED.

OK, next one...hypnopompic...we've had hypnagogic and psychopomp, so we may as well combine them and try hypnopompic...

You know, I'll bet you are one of those people who hits the snooze alarm a dozen times in the morning, aren't you? You just love the hypnopompic state you're in so much you can't get your butt out of bed!

Me, I just jump out of bed, anthropomorphically yell at the alarm clock for its audacity and get on with the day.




Lordandmaster -> RE: Word Fight (3/16/2006 3:50:59 PM)

Oh, that one's easy. I'm not sure what "anthropomorphically leaping out of bed" would entail, but I guess you're glad you didn't wake up like Gregor Samsa. Then it would be "entomomorphically," I'd assume.

"Metempsychosis" is the next one.




mnottertail -> RE: Word Fight (3/16/2006 3:55:21 PM)

I thought I knew some uncommon words, but I feel positively fourth grade with this crowd.

I will again sit in stunned silence.

I don't know.

The next one, indeed. Me, I hope to come back as a race horse. Being put out to stud would be way cool.[8D]

If I knew I would be reincarnated as a horse, I might be tempted to organize a bacchanalia.




mnottertail -> RE: Word Fight (3/17/2006 8:37:50 AM)

That is one I can live with. A drunken orgiastic feast, named for Bacchus.

Lordandmaster -> RE: Word Fight (3/17/2006 9:59:38 AM)

"Involute" reminds me of the limerick that begins with the line, "There once was a man from Nantucket..."

Next word: "stochastic"




mnottertail -> RE: Word Fight (3/17/2006 10:17:36 AM)

I conjecture that the man from Nantucket was not named Nantucket.


Providing the seed for eponymous.

Someone should conduct a stochastic analysis on what the probability is of hooking up with someone on collarme.com!!!





Lordandmaster -> RE: Word Fight (3/17/2006 10:21:31 AM)

"Eponymous" would be the right word if they renamed this site Lordandmaster.com. My stochastic analysis is that it's not too likely.

OK, what's next...hmmm..."covinous"

I can see it. Although he strikes me more slave than master!




candystripper -> RE: Word Fight (3/17/2006 10:29:42 AM)

New word:

"fallaciloquence"

candystripper

(blows raspberry)




Lordandmaster -> RE: Word Fight (3/17/2006 10:31:15 AM)

Our President is a walking example of fallaciloquence.

We never did "covinous."




candystripper -> RE: Word Fight (3/17/2006 10:49:11 AM)

methinks You lie; convinous was done.

new word: "excambiator"

candystripper




Thanatosian -> RE: Word Fight (3/17/2006 10:54:25 AM)

excambiator - an exchanger or broker


next: pigritude

I think it is pretty good example of our pigritude that we are on this message board whilst at work! We should really be working. What slackers!




incognitoinmass -> RE: Word Fight (3/17/2006 11:24:35 AM)

When I was a youngster, I was quite the philatelist.

[&:] Not that there's anything wrong with that.




candystripper -> RE: Word Fight (3/17/2006 12:04:41 PM)

"train enthusiast"

next word:

"HEEMLIN"

Sounds foreign....no idea.




Lordandmaster -> RE: Word Fight (3/17/2006 2:37:34 PM)

We didn't do "covinous"!!!
