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".
Fatuity
Noun
pl - fatuities
[Latin fatuits, from fatuus, silly, foolish.]
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. ;-)

Rise and Shine.....TGIF!
I like girls with big fat tuities....always have.
i think i may be #1
but NOOOOO< i am NOT, bc Dain just sleazes in from the hall one step ahead of me!
I almost joined a fatuity in college...
The youth spent in endless fatuity,
With naught left for serious gratuity,
Working years to amass,
A boat load of cash,
Just to pump a full tank of renew-ity! ;-P
I’m sitting here watching Good Morning America and there are two men climbing a building in New York City which lead me to think that they are definitely a good example of abulia until I saw the story about the people in Hartford Ct., the hit and run driver, the people who didn’t stop and the idiots standing on the sidewalk who wouldn’t stop and help. It seems that these people, as well as the American Crocodile that was picked up on the IOP yesterday were born with the minimal amount of brains thereby making it impossible for them to make decisions of any kind. I should also add that it is a lesson in fatuity that I didn’t check the date on the above observations and had originally posted them to yesterday WOTD.
Ordinarily, the word fatuity would bring about photos and comments about Ted Kennedy. How soon we forget.
It is not only his friends who now speak of him in the past tense.
But we have a new contender for the title in Omobma, (I hope I'm pronouncing that correctly), who appears to be under the impression that a media coronation means an automatic elevation to power.
It doesn't. It's just their way of positioning your neck in the guillotine.
Now the story that is coming on is about the world ending in six days, another example of fatuity. They showed a picture of his magazine “The Prophet” with a picture of Chucky on the front. Ex-cop and trailer park manager - another Jones?
Obambi should check out what happened to algore and skerry to see his own future.

another world is coming to an end story? perfect, and me needing to trim my hair....
A+++
I like it. Wasted youth = fatuity........well, some spent it wasted.
A+++
did WE have any doubt?
A+
-and I thought the class clowns would divert in another directon...
I’ve discovered that vicadin helps increase your fatuity and your pride while decreasing your pain.
A+
I guess a dentist knows all about pain, huh? inflicting it that is.....
The dems: party of fatuity
That fits Obama to a T
Just a hard left-wing dope
Preaching change, preaching hope
Lock in losers in perpetuity
Restaurants charging customers who order fatty food an extra gratuity by fiat would be a fatuity...
A+++
wonder if the late night rendevous at DiFi’s house resolved bill’s role in the party?
Phatuity.
The Democrats and media, but I repeat myself, have an infatuation with the candidate of extreme fatuity, Barack Obama. After his tax hikes I do not expect us to be in fat city, to say the least.
I thought that fad had gone, but coming out of filthy phils all you can eat chicken buffet was a guy with his pants dropped and a girl with her tight shirt creeping up showing her belly fat........neither were making the buffet more appetizing.
Speaking of fatuity.....this exercise in futility makes me laugh.....
I saw the word for the day and imediately thought of some thing sleazy...I cant help it.
You still get an A for usage, Dixie.
i dropped xsteen and xsbrownie off at the starbucks to get fraps for them and a triple vente latte for me, while i got gas. xsbrownie is wearing her friends don’t let friends vote democrat tshirt[which she bought with her own money several years ago when at the mall with her sis and cousins. it is her fave shirt]. apparently this elicited some commentary from a few of the baristas. xsbrownie so loves to rile the left, she makes me proud ; ) She just stares deadpan at them when they make remarks too. it’s funny.
That’s awesome.
Talk about wearing the uniform behind enemy lines.
figures that you would get comments in a starbucks too. i didn’t even think of it, and i know she didn’t either. not that it would have deterred her!
your youngest daughter walked into starbucks with an anti-dem t-shirt? now THAT takes some guts!
I’m sorry you have gas. Try some Rolaids. ;-)
YOU are a sphincter.
will be in Warren, by tomorrow AM. grad party for my niece at some local dago joint ; )
aka going to “Porchview”
I heard that word for the first time this morning. The infobabe was talking about all the local events going on this weekend.
I have a little backyard pool left from when the kids were growing up....I plan to float away the summer as usual!
My wife just got a pool from Big Lots for $59. It’s ten feet across and 30 inches deep. They’ve set it up in my parking spot in the driveway because it’s the only reasonably flat place.
Don’t hurt yourself trying to cannonball into it!
That will have to wait till I get home.
This pile of fatuities appeared in a pm addressed to me on another board. :)
Mr hard man eh?
You started the personal thing you jerk not me, by acting like "some kind of Southern Baptist preacher" goading in people like me with your hilarious post about "non-believers" denying creation. I slapped you down for such an abjectly stupid statement like the schoolteacher dealing with an ignorant brat that I am, everyone (except your clique mates) rallied to ME not you and showed you for the egotistical science tinkerer that you are.
You got the wrong perception of me, I listened to your rain forest appraisal and agreed, but I now renege because everything that emanates from your hallucinogen addled brain is stimulated by pure hatred. Calling me out should not involve personal attack. You want to personally attack me bring it on because I'll go straight for your jugular and if ya want keep waving that gun at me I take that as a serious threat.
I made no assumptions about you at all, I made an appraisal by the way that you like to shove your self -importance in everyone's face that your knowledge is limited to a few "useful" snippets of scientific jargon you glean from your amateur hobby in trying to justify to yourself the pseudo-intellectual arguments you have concocted to placate your own psychological insecurities. And if you think I am "crying" to you about a fight, man, forget it in consideration of the facts about ME of which you are not aware with regard to battles I fought to still be able to walk around on this planet.
I am here for Nugent in case you had not noticed. I have never openly antagonised or intimidated ANYONE on this Board unless provoked first. You want to corroborate? Ask xxxx. Ask xxx. xxx/xxxx bothbarred meand then let me back when theyrealised the TRUE agenda why I am here. Go check thispersonal commentary to me. No bullshit treatment from me fatha, just PURE PRAGMATISM that only ever riles up the biggest humourless mard-arses on this board such as you. Even xxxx had the decency to admit my relevance in interacting here, even if he don't agree with me. But at least he did not start name calling like a schoolyard bully like you.
E=MC2 was a fkn referral to a link dealing with the subject you dolt. I care nowt for your self-aggrandisement and ego self-inflation. Go read Sagan then come back to me, apologise and have a decent conversation, otherwise keep your distance because this particular Limey don't take kindly to threatening behaviour even if it does emanate from half-way around the globe.
Go listen to Rock 'n' Roll Ball Yanker if ya wanna know where my true allegiance lies.
Ps send us your address and I'll send you a free copy of our Warbyrdz CD like I did for various other DECENT people on thisBoardwho had the intelligence not only in understanding our sentiments, but praising and supporting as well, including xxx xxxxxx himself.
Home from work and getting ready to light the grill for steaks-
Obama’s most glaring fatuity
Is his his sophmoric world view-
Dictators won’t be civilized
No matter what he might do
They’ll drink tea and eat cake
And make him think all is well
As their minions are aiming nukes
To blow us all to hell
They will not drink his koolaid
That the drive-by media swill-
They’ll just make empty promises
And move in for the kill
Good grief! You certainly did piss in someone’s Post Toasties...
Mine is an above ground, 15 ft diameter and four feet deep....it’s got a little deck on it that sits a couple of chairs so adults can watch the kiddies......it’s got a big ol tree over it for shade.......very cool and wet. ;^)
A+
well, well.......you must post on some crazy boards........what a loon.
Are you debating evolution on a Ted Nugent fan board, or did I scan that wrong?
hilarious t-shirt seen in the Pgh Sports store at M’ville mall : pic of a couch with the caption, Wanna burn one? WVU.....
It’s easy for a person with anger issues and no other avenue for expression to talk tough through the internet and pretend to be something or someone they’re not. It sounds like you hit someone where it hurt and they are flailing back at you. Let it roll off your back, for the insignificant rant it is. We like you here. :-)
