I really like the sound of fusilage. Just a cool word.
Syzygy and fastidious are, bar none, my two favorite words. I’m still working on a single, casual expression that incorporates both.
Oooo I have loads of favorites. Sepulchre. Brobdingnagian. Toothsome. Retinue. I love it when someone uses “disinterested” correctly.
Ditto on popemobile and mellifluous. I also like the sound of the words/phrases Zimbabwe, summer afternoon, wind in the willows, puff-a-lumps, phosphorescence, luminous, tiramisù (with the accent on the last syllable), persimmon, the Sea of Tranquility, and moo cow.
When I first read this, I misinterpreted what you meant by “Mrs. O” (So THAT’S the latest synonym for it these days, huh??)

I’m not sure how it happened, but somehow, in the course of a tirade this weekend, I used the word “jackanape”. That got some interesting looks, to say the least.**
“Was there ever man had such luck! when I kissed the
jack, upon an up-cast to be hit away! I had a
hundred pound on’t: and then a whoreson jackanapes
must take me up for swearing; as if I borrowed mine
oaths of him and might not spend them at my pleasure.”

Eclipse, ecliptic, equator, equinox, Hawaii, chymotrypsin, Pacific, grace, pineapple, assassinate (!), Montreal, peace, slender, hospital.
Oh, and “quark.”

I think it was Dorothy Parker who said that the two most beautiful words in the English language are “cheque” and “enclosed”.
Every time I read a topic where a great one-liner pops into my head, I scroll through the replies and, sure enough, someone’s already said it. I finally got to a thread before anyone else could state the obvious. Go Me! hehehehe

Now I’ve been honored with Shayna having an orgasm in one of my threads! Hot damn, I’ve been getting lucky lately.
Happy to oblige, darlin’! Any time!
Olentzero quote:
Better yet, go to my room and let Mrs. O and I deal with you for a while.
Don’t tempt me, Olent. I just might have to take you up on that!
UncleBeer quote:
I must say Shayna is fast becoming a favorite of mine.
OMG! And from a Moderator, no less! I’m so flattered. aha, eat your heart out. UncleBeer, you’ve been a favorite of mine for a long time already! May I add that to my sig line now?
Oh, and DRY, I think Olentzero meant exactly what you think he meant by Mrs. O. There really is a Mrs. O, and I was just invited to a 3-some. Hehehehe

There are more, but then again, he’s only been gone for 10hours, not that I’m counting or anything…
Shayna, you beat me to the punch again! Darn it, girlfriend! Is that what you’re doing instead of reaching for one of those cancer sticks? I can see why you’re doing so well with not smoking!

Nope. Thought “O” meant…well, you know…not a real person…
“Why Mrs., and not Mr.? Why not just ‘THE BIG’?”
As for a threesome, I invited you to one first, AND WITH GRACE–in the goofing off at work thread.
Must have been what I said in the Protest thread, huh/
Yes.
Discipline… Just makes me feel good inside…
