    Huh.  For some reason I thought it would have an odd pronunciation.  I guess not.

  2. Drumwaster says:

    I’d like to suggest one, if it hasn’t already been done.

    “Legume”.

    That is all. wink

  3. Jeff G says:

    I considered “legume,” but it was edged out by “bean,” of all things!  How’s that for irony?

    When are you going to get to moot? I hate that word. I hate saying, reading it and thinking about it.

    Unfortunately, I work in a profession where I have to use the word daily, and I end up walking around the office like a retarted monkey, chanting moot, moot, moot!

    May I suggest dander?  It sounds like a goose with flaking problems.

    Also, I have always enjoyed commissar, which has the added bonus of being an ‘80s music reference.

  6. triticale says:

    Do you noi some sweat socks?

    Yes, but I don’t noi very many of them.

  7. Rob says:

    In the spirit of the amusing but somewhat nonsensical past posts in this theme, I suggest:

    e.g. “Is that your noisome Ted Kennedy?” “Yes that noisome Ted Kennedy belongs to me”
