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”.
Atrabilious
Adjective
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. ;-)

Rise and Shine, or get drafted into O’s war. Homework on the desk keeps your student status.
Good job, it’s not easy being first.
Hmmm... Sebelius and atrabilious are near homonyms, and most assuredly are already synonyms.
This woman named Sebelius,
Certainly acts atrabilious,
She says “kill de bay-bay”,
“And if you’re flying today”,
Smile when TSA does the feely-yuss!
Obama, corrupt, *supercilious
Makes Americans feel atrabilious
There will be a new dawn
When this commie moves on
But we’re squirming with sadness until he is
*a supercilious person behaves as if he thinks he is better or more important than everyone else
I thought former HSS Napolitano was a homonym, but will take your word for it RE Sebelius ....
Not talking about homosexuality on her part - just authoritarianism. She wants you to ENJOY being repressed and exploited.
Eh, that ship has sailed. It’s a symptom of moral decay, sure. But also a testament that the “live-and-let-live” philosophy is strong.
i see it more as teetering on the slippery slope.

A+++ We will have to clean out that Whitney’s nest when we take over.
Whitney? I typed Whitney’s.
It did it again. Hornet. HORNET.
I think we are on the downward slide to WWIII...
We got in at 2 AM, so I am feeling atribilious (def. 2) today. In fact, I’m going back to bed.
I hate that you introduced me to that time vampire. It’s worse than wimp.
Never saw wimp until now - thank you! If you really want to get sucked in, check out the “What If?” section of xkcd, link found in upper left-hand corner
