Word For The Day, Monday, 3/8/10



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".

feckless; adj.

1. ineffective; incompetent; futile: feckless attempts to repair the plumbing. 2. having no sense of responsibility; indifferent; lazy.

Lacking purpose or vitality; feeble or ineffective.

Careless and irresponsible.

Etymology: 1590s, from feck, "effect, value, vigor" (late 15c.), Scottish shortened form of effect; popularized by Carlyle, who left its opposite, feckful, in dialectal obscurity.

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....

i hope he is doing more than covering that fruity booty of his!

Speaking of booty, and sex crimes, or torts, or whatever, I think you need to get to the bottom of this story: New Jersey Women Hospitalized After Buttock-enhancing Surgery Gone Wrong

My only question is: if she was drunk on vodka, would it taste like a White Russian?

From the mug shot posted on the thread, I think I would probably stay out of squirting distance.

No back-alley procedures; these were performed in the plumbing department at Home Depot.

Maybe. This was in Kentucky, so it might have tasted like beer, or bourbon.
