Word For The Day, Thursday 11/14/02
The Verbivores | 11/14/02 | Mistress Bella

Posted on 11/14/2002 7:44:58 AM PST by Bella_Bru

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!

Kind of looks like my mother, Argh. LOL!

She's a very athletic woman, but age got to her. She was overweight for about five years of her life, but the sags from that era would never go away. It was right after she bore twins.

Anyway, one day when she was at my home, she was taking a shower. She came out of the shower buck naked. I was in total undeniable shock. She looked like that cartoon of the old lady in Playboy.

In my best Scarlett voice, "As God is my witness, I will never look like that."
