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. The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-) Practice makes perfect.....post on....

raffish \RAF-ish\, adjective:

1. Characterized by or suggestive of flashy vulgarity, crudeness, or rowdiness; tawdry.
2. Marked by a carefree unconventionality or disreputableness; rakish.

Etymology: Raffish derives from the noun raff (chiefly used in the compound or duplicate, riffraff), meaning "people of a low reputation."

Good Morning, riffraff!

[Argh]

Much, but not all, of his body did. (Including, if I remember correctly, but I've REALLY repressed this, the part I know you're thinking of.) He looked even more abjectly tragic when he was naked.

[Argh]

No way I'm putting you on. People had pictures taken regularly before the Civil War, and these were definitely old-fashioned type photographs Playboy got hold of somehow.

So who is this then?

DON'T YOU DARE INSINUATE THAT IS XSPUP!

I'm starting a petition that we get this FReeper to be substitute teacher sometime:

[VRWCmember]

DON'T YOU DARE INSINUATE THAT IS XSPUP!

[Argh]

Which Freeper is that?

[xsmommy]

[VRWCmember]

This is somebody else's favorite sheep:

[xsmommy]

lotsa sheepishness going on today for some reason.

[VRWCmember]

Which Freeper is that?

I wish I knew. But she certainly looks like she should be a part of our class.

But sir!

Shirley you jest about an innocent post being held half-cocked all night!

I mean, Miss Rika wouldn't be THAT cruel, would she?

(Now, Misstress Sea might be .... But considering she's a professional at riding mounties and all.... And Sea can ride mounties without even one strip of video tape holding her on!)

(But I digress ...)

Miss Rika - Surely "she" wouldn't do such a thing.

(Hmmmmn. Ponders the issue at hand a bit ..)

Now, Xsex has already gone off half-cocked already - figuring the abominabull circumcisstance she put xsexlesspuppy through.......

[Eala]

Shirley you jest about an innocent post being held half-cocked all night!

I dunno. Seems like this half-cocked trebuchet would have no problem...

[NeoCaveman]

I'm starting a petition that we get this FReeper to be substitute teacher sometime:

I'll sign that!

[NeoCaveman]

i'll have to do some research to see what dick likes!

Leave it to a woman to over-think a very simple question ;-)

[VRWCmember]

Shirley you jest

Who are you calling Shirley?

[VRWCmember]

Do you know where your dog is?

[SeaDragon]

(Now, Misstress Sea might be .... But considering she's a professional at riding mounties and all.... And Sea can ride mounties without even one strip of video tape holding her on!)

Cruel?

Moi?

Never

As for the mounties.........
