You're being a little prickly, don't you think? Lighten up!

Such a short response is out of character, you're usually so multiloquent.

Music to my years, yes.  Antipodal to my raspy musings.

Pastoral, yes.  But New Zealand is also  famous for it's variegated landscape.

Rotorua smells edematous, come to think of it.

Edited to add: "Heteroclite" is more in the realm of "anomalous," "differing from the norm," than "having different forms."

Status: offline 		I thought your DeNiro impression hit the mark squarely. I didn't find it prickly at all.  I admit, it isn't the BEST DeNiro I have heard, but it was in the upper crust.

So I am confused as usual, is there a word outstanding at this point?

Status: offline 		I guess we're waiting to hear whether the word is really "edemetous," in which case I have no idea what it means, or whether it was supposed to be "edematous," in which case it's just too fucking gross to spend any more time on.

So I propose "larmoyant."

How about "vademecum"?
