Word For The Day, Monday, 6/2/08
In order that we might all raise the level of discourse and expand our language abilities, here is the daily post of "Word for the Day".
execration; noun
1: the act of cursing or denouncing; also : the curse so uttered 2: an object of curses : something detested
Etymology: XVI. f. pp. stem of L. ex(s)ecrārĩ curse, f. EX-1 + sacrāre devote religiously, f. sacer, sacr- religiously set apart; see SACRED, -ATE3. So execration XIV. — (O)F. or L. execrable †involving a curse XIV; abominable XV. — (O)F. exécrable — L. (in act. and pass. senses).
Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the Word for the Day in a sentence.
The sentence must, in some way, relate to the news of the day.
The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-)
Practice makes perfect.....post on....
Here is my example with WFTD.
Execration? yes, but I say pray for him anyway.

No pushing at the door please!
time for class, you execrable sluggards! ; )
what???
IADT!
Here I am!
What’s up CJ.
did you go see Ironman, ceej? vast, i highly recommend this. i think vastson#2 would enjoy it also, xsboy really liked it. Any movie that starts with Back in Black blasting in a humvee shows promise : )
A++ no wonder libs have no problem with high taxes; they just refuse to pay them!
Ironman is definitely on our list to see.
We’ve seen the new Indiana Jones movie and Prince Caspian — might go back and see both of those again.
i saw both of those i think i liked ironman as much as Caspian, which totally took me by surprise. it is not my normal kind of movie at all and i do kind of feel like i would like to see it again and i normally NEVER do that. i am also now crushing on that crackhead robt downey jr. he has aged well!
ok, so are you still spooning there or what? i realize that your pal showed up, but that is no excuse for you to ditch class.
John McCain favors all immigration
This has led to right-wing execration
But old John is a lock
When compared to Barack
We don’t need anti-White desecration
(He was great in "Back to School" and in "Heart and Souls" and "Only You")
I managed to dodge all pretense of movies since squeeze was working. (Whew! No SATC.) Ironman looks like a DVD prospect.
A+++ at the end of the day, i think you are right. though i saw some Obams signs springing up in the people’s republic of falls church, on the way in, it is a leftist compound. i think middle america will not be able to stomach the black nationalist language that surrounds obams/his wife/his religious mentors.
xsteen thought he was hot too, which is pretty amazing.
i think it’s better on the big screen, personally. what selfrespecting woman with a brain in her head would go see sex and the city. it is all that i abhor in women.
i bet anything that if CJ sees this movie, he will wish he was Tony Stark.
The same type that could get excited about hillary or obambo.
one word comes to mind...vapid.
This isn't gonna beomce one of those execrable "Guilty/Not Guilty" threads, izzit?
beomce = become
sheesh
cokehead robt downey jr in ironman is decidedly NOT GUILTY : )
better, but doesn’t make me melt like #21.
Dirty Old Woman.
That would be execrable.
whereas marteen is just executable : )
...those tats are just plain ugly...what do the crocs think?
She needs more red and yellow. I saw a woman Saturday that was tattooed like a Japanese gangster. From her elbows all the way up to her torso. Big dragons and snakes.
Guilty
Beomce?
Not Guilty.
Angelinia Jolie - guilty? LOL
now that she has become MOTHER TO THE WORLD’S CHILDREN, people tend to forget what a freak she was just a few years ago; married to billybob, wearing vials of blood and frenching her brother.
i like your cute weasley/ginger one better : ) post that one!
A++ yes and truly, they are ABOMINATIONS. As a Catholic myself, i want to slap the crap out of pfleger.
FNC’s Father Jonathan took Pfleger to the woodshed over the weekend.
wish i had seen that. though, Father Jonathon tends to be a bit overdramatic and gets exorcised himself pretty easily. he is usually right, though.
i love that one.
execration
After all the execration
was done for the day
Hillary, began to execute
a new plan to purloin votes
and twist necks
after a stiff whiskey or two
Hillary started to brew
a new potion of poison to spew
The ripoff the Clinton’s did
on the nation in the nineties
it is said, did not satisfy the
thirst of their greediness
give us eight more years
to rip and tear America to tears
the agenda has not been executed
the air is rift with mendacity
and tricks, so please let the process
go forth, Hillary’s thirst for power is worse.
