Word For The Day, Monday, 9/24/12

;


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".

noisome; adj.

1. offensive or disgusting, as an odor. 2. harmful or injurious to health; noxious. Synonyms 1. fetid, putrid, rotten, stinking, mephitic.

Etymology: b>1382, "harmful, noxious," from noye "harm, misfortune," shortened form of anoi "annoyance" (from O.Fr. anoier, see annoy) + -some. Meaning "bad-smelling" first recorded 1577.

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....

Those are simply unbearable. We were visiting Southeastern OH this past weekend and my SIL said that the obama ads were ubiquitous, but during our stay, we saw far more Romney ads, so maybe he’s just starting to release ads there. A+++

Noisome

Like most good American words handed down to us by the folks at Etymology (etty-moe-loggy) noisome can mean just what you need it to mean. For example, Jimmy would get sloshed and want to know “Why”, Why what he didn't know. He is a noisome, we all figured more annoying than just some.

Anyway there is the breaking it down into phutons method.
Noisome is like not taking the blame the schoolhouse fire,

No is o me! (On a hysterical note: A student actually did burn down the high school in middle of Bloomington, Ind. many years ago. Folks said they could see the smoke twenty odd miles away)

Fauxcohauntus doesn't have a law license? Just following in the footsteps of the great ones..Billy Clinton, Barack and Michelle Obama....she practiced law out of her Cambridge office with no Mass license? Wonder if she will answer the charge with..."I have the cheekbones of a lawyer." or "My mama told me I was a lawyer."

So Obama 2016 was free on the internet and Obama friendly lawyers scrambled to block it. They managed to do that, there is still one website offering the movie for free. Watch it here.
