I think helen should be congratulated on the longest thread title I've ever seen.

Yup that gets my vote!

Why, thank you for noticing that, Sub Joe. FYI, I was one character shy of exceeding Lit maximum. If I hadn't removed the accidental period at the end, I would have had to come up with a whole new title.

Welp, off to go look up "frowsty" now.

And I missed off your final 'e' accidentally. Not quite as embarrassing as an accidental period.

I was wondering who was going to take the bait on that one. I really should have known.

 

[NoJo]

What is it with you and baiting? Did you have some kind of trauma with a fishing rod or something?

Ok, have to do this. It's panoply. One must spell it correctly at least if making an impression is the aim .

I must say the use of any of the words above would not impress me, even if spoken or written by non-friends. AH folk are another matter (ah ha ha).

(I like the randomness of what catches my attention in lurking now. Ta.)

Not even "beyond the pale?"

You're wonderful P.

I thank you for the correction, my mind does tend to confuse it for 'monopoly' ever since Joe's thread a while back on the term. I vaguely recall calling dibs on the thimble.

However, I would have to disagree with you on your above stated comment. Made enough of an impression to lure you back, didn't it?

Besides, the title of the thread did make mention of the term 'abuse.'

Wankel rotary engine.

OK, it's a phrase. Best I could come up with in my brain damaged state.

As an avid cruciverbalist and sesquipidilian, I would have to nominate "defenestrate."

I defenestrated my obnoxious kitty last night.

And I live on the seventh floor.
