Word For The Day, Thursday, May 12, 2005

Thursday, May 12, 2005

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.

ZOIC

Adjective combining form
Pronunciation: Zoic
Etymology: [Greek] (zoicos) Of or pertaining to animals


1) Animal: having an animal mode of existence: animal life and action.
2) Of or relating to a (specified) geological era.

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.

The one that really wasn't a runaway; the sticky-fingered kleptozoid.

I don't need the shadowing of a sunny day to see that pre-rhino from a meter away.

JHer nose looks.. crooked in the more recent pic.
Slightly off center.
As if she tripped on something and whacked her honker on something immobile.
(Tripped on her veil!)

maybe i am wrong, maybe it hasn't been fixed, but i didn't notice her nose in the more recent pic and it stood out in the mugshot pic.

I'm going to vote 'no' on the nose job - I think the longer hair framing the face shortens the percieved nose in the second photo

you might be right. i never even noticed her nose in the recent pix but when i saw the mugshot i thought holy crap she was homely and her nose is pronounced.

i loved the term darksheare used whacked her honker. that sounds like something we would say in the xshouse : )

Well, in the mug shot, her nose looks wider at the bridge section.
In the long hair shot, it looks less wide at the bridge, but looks slightly askew.
Dunno, a good color side by side would be good.

Ummm... You wouldn't happen to be one of my aunts now, would you?
LOL!

Yeah, the hair may be setting it off, like some crazy optical illusion.
