VERJUICE [VUR joos]
noun
VERJUICE, literally, is the sour juice of unripe fruit, especially crab apples and grapes.
Figuratively, VERJUICE is sourness of temperament, disposition, or expression. It is the hallmark of a curmudgeon, itself an interesting word, generally described in dictionaries as of unknown origin, though Samuel Johnson (the English lexicographer, 1709-1784) says in his Dictionary: "It is a vitious (the old spelling, based on Latin vitiosis) manner of pronouncing coeur mechant (French for wicked heart....)

Verjuice?
Heck, I don’t know. It’s where ever you left it. 8<)
The verjuice of Obama is the scourge of the Nation and oozes from every lie he tells!
Verjuice its own reward. (See tagline.)
How was I to know? And yet ...

At Bottom
They brought some new stock in today,
And dumped it on my head!
"You have to rotate stock, you know!"
Was what I should have said.
Instead I suffered silently,
I've done that far too long.
One needs to speak up fervently,
When something's clearly wrong!
It's such a simple job, I thought,
I'll get a chance to shine!
The other apples all around,
I think would rather whine.
They've clearly lost ambition,
Can't do the simplest task.
Just suck it up and hold it in,
Is that too much to ask?
I guess a case of attitude,
Is what I now have gotten,
From too much pressure felt too long.
Boy, do I feel rotten.

Send VERJUICE to O’Reilly.
The verjuice from Obama just oozed from behind reasonable words at the SOTU Tuesday night. Perhaps it was Taqquia at work.

The verjuice of the Left is a vintage best shown the drain...
I now have Bohemian Rhapsody stuck in my head
verjuice, verjuice, will you the fandango?
thunderbolts and lightning, very very frightening.
Shouldn’t “verjuice” be true juice?
Nope - Green!
Hillary, crabby with verjuice
Lies, disassembles and perjures
She’s anti-Israeli
Would not treat them fairly
Yet a lot of her sycophants were Jews
That makes sense.
Where you will never find it.
obama’s SOTU speech—so I hear (since I did not listen to it live) was full of verjuice against Mr. Trump—and, in reality, against those citizens of th US who have not been brainwashed into clintonism/obamunism!!!!
How un-Presidential, and completely lacking in class!!!! We shall need to upgrade the Presidency from the trash-heap it has become if we are to survive as a nation!!
Third Place
Donald trumped the tramp
He’s a twittering scamp
Hillary thinks she’s got presidential juice
When all she has is a case of liberal verjuice
and a bit of a woman cramp.
And now it’s game on between the heavyweights. LOL
