Word For The Day, Monday, 5/1/17
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".
ruction; noun
1.
an uproar; noisy or quarrelsome disturbance
2.
(pl) a violent and unpleasant row; trouble: there'll be ructions when she finds out
Etymology: n.
"disturbance," 1825, dialectal or colloquial, of unknown origin. Perhaps from eruption or an altered shortening of insurrection.
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.

During Barry’s eight years
From left-wing engineers
Led to their election destruction
Generally speaking, young people are more prone to raise a ruction than elderly people (although there are exceptions).

A++++ and hallelujah for that.

It’s a ruction over the death of a bunny
United killed it, and it’s not really funny
Cremated it too
No autopsy for you
No explanation how it died or hush money.
United blew it again. They just keep digging.
A+++ yes, glad you added the qualifier because I have seen plenty of aging leftists taking to the streets!
Sweet.
OH I missed it, was there a new United hullabaloo? the dr hauled off got a nice chunk of change, I understand. A+++
I sent this to my niece whose dog Penne6y looks very similar to that and she had her in a t-shirt that said that very thing, for easter!
The eastern World,
It is Explodin’
And North Korea

The left is mad

And exposing their lies
Is “Verboten”
As they mope in the basements
And receive their parents’ dotin’
Now the White House finally has a real president again
And the only thing the left can do is cause a RUCTION!
