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”. Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the “word of the day”; in a sentence. The sentence must, in some way, relate to the news of the day.

Subbie Slip has her whip, handcuffs and legcuffs today.

The rest of the stuff is locked up in my drawer. I’m just letting all the new students know that we behave as if we were ladies and gentlemen in here. Those two words “as if” can get you an A if you make the subbie laugh.

ZOIC

Adjective combining form
Pronunciation: Zoic
Etymology: [Greek] (zoicos) Of or pertaining to animals

1) Animal: having an animal mode of existence: animal life and action.
2) Of or relating to a (specified) geological era.

I guess we could say Hobbes1 is a tigerzoic humanoid. So sorry, Tiger. It was a low fast ball.

You can use any root word for the “zoic.” Just make it sound like we know what we’re writing.

I was immune from the phenomena only in as far as I was a 'friend', though not immune from pranks and jokes.

(I was in the shower, they shut off the electricity to the cabin I was in at the camp. I stepped out in a towel and sneakers to reset the breaker, heard giggling, and asked them to please turn the power back on!)

[Darksheare]

Welcome.


Very reality altering to experience, so I've heard.

Mine was a reference to the Rocky horror picture show - what was yours?

I'm going to have to see if I can get Denise Richards or someone like that to zoom me. Hold on while I check my U.S. money supply.

Still only $1.93 U.S. I think I'm out of luck.

[Darksheare]

Brady Bunch (Marsha) the horrid Partridge family, and the Unngh thread for laughs.
(Current last pic on Unngh thread, man inspects bicycle rear spokes. By way of crashing.)

[VRWCmember]

But you still called him a girl. ;) I knew what you meant tiger. Unlike some of the cocquettes around here, we croqs can't be baited into a catfight quite that easily.

[VRWCmember]

By the way, shouldn't you have started today's Freeperette Catfight thread by now?? I understand nopardons is undefeated.

Well, this Mean Girls thread would be the ideal thread to ping them to.

[VRWCmember]

Or maybe this one: Q: How many women with PMS does it take to change a light bulb? (Humor)

[Darksheare]

Gaaah!

[pissant]

[Argh]

[patton]

Of course not - you are the kindest person I know.
