Very good. I still haven’t worn mine outside yet.

Our cat was named Frisbee, but has always been referred to as The Wibble.

Today my favourite word shall be:

Sanctimonious

badger1954 · February 17, 2021, 7:11pm

I rather like the word “ample”.

AndrewG · February 17, 2021, 7:35pm

Lugubrious, mellifluous, obsequious, preposterous… I think there’s a common feature in these!

timmo1341 · February 17, 2021, 7:39pm

Yep - you can’t beat an ‘ous’!

SleeperService · February 17, 2021, 7:50pm

“Can’t” is my favourite. It keeps me in work proving to people that actually you “Can”

Borborygmi

AndrewG · February 17, 2021, 8:06pm

I forgot salubrious and egregious. That’s all from me!

milesF · February 17, 2021, 8:18pm

‘Rebarbative’, ‘incipient’ and ‘prolix’ are all great words to drop into meetings if you want colleagues to think you’re a pompous git.

Though in my case they probably thought that already.

Roog · February 17, 2021, 8:39pm

Pompous

ColinP · February 17, 2021, 8:53pm

Juxtaposition.

The one that always makes me smile and continuing the Blackadder theme… “Bob”

Mulberry · February 17, 2021, 8:55pm

I’m tempted to write down every word from Douglas Adams “Deeper Meaning of Liff”.

Otherwise the northern German Moin is a favorite.

Or fugly?

Reminds me of pompatus

As the joker said "Cause I speak of the pompatus of love”
