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.

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.

It's very short. Two Asian guys are chopping down a tree in front of an outdoor audience. Another muscular Asian guy steps up into the path where the tree will fall, slapping excess chalk dust off his hands. Presumably the chalk dust is to help with the tree catching. He spreads his arms. The guys finish chopping the tree and it begins to fall. The next shot is from well behind the catcher. The tree falls on him and splats him to the ground. (Obviously at some point they replaced the tree catcher with some kind of dummy and did some editing). It's a lot funnier to look at than read.
