You should start taking requests to insert certain words into a random conversation. Along those lines, if you could somehow work "proboscis" into a conversation sometime, I'd really appreciate it.
Is this where we meet to discuss how to destroy the family?
Wither it away benji, GOSH. (http://i.imgur.com/mBUXqRS.png)For some reason I like this better with Karl looking the wrong way. It's like he knew you were fucking up thanks to dialectical materialism and now can't even look at you now that you've done it.
I wish I wasn't too stupid to follow the conversation in here.Or are you the smartest one of all being free from the weight and guilt of knowing?

Human Action I would assume could be the only possible one.

"I understand the inextricability of the parental instinct (well, in an abstract, impersonal sense), but how can any of your boss' daughters take him seriously now when he admonishes them to look before they leap?"spoiler (click to show/hide)Does the scene setting add to or detract from these?[close]

"And you've found that flummoxing?"spoiler (click to show/hide)Apparently the gerund of flummox (flummoxing) is considered informal speech by lexicographers, which makes this bit of communicative upchuck that much better imo.[close]
You may actually be rubbing off on me
I sat in this thread for five minutes trying to come up with a joke involving Czechoslovakian Novel and Chekhov's Gun but I couldn't :fbm

So he gave me another thing, that I forget the name of, but it's like basically the same active drug with slight changes in the rest of the pill to confirm, and he basically said that I must be a one percenter. (Like I didn't already see the 2012 election results.)
(I was drinkin slivovitz while building furniture in my underwear cuz it's so fucking hot.)Yeah, it is. :drool
I yen not to impart Kantian sanctimony when I tell you this, nor offer counsel of a paternalistic character; I speak only as one who has, does, and always shall—inveterate for a century of centuries.
I just want to voice my disapproval of this Sovok dude taking over Karakand's thread

"A veritable smorgasbord."spoiler (click to show/hide)I had to follow up the blank stare I received with, "Many things." :goty2[close]
I've used the phrase "veritable smorgasbord" before, and I'm a dumb. Don't feel too badly about that one.
(people don't get that I don't actually know the exact meanings of a lot of these words, I only have a feel for them derived from contextual childhood reasoning)Implicit learning is boss.
On a serious note, I'd just like to say that in my (limited) anecdotal experience I agree with the broad premise of that paper.I like when they use the thesaurus in Word and don't actually check the meaning of the word.
e.g. My sibling was not raised in the same manner as I was* and when they'd ask me to read their school papers it was quite obvious that they were using words they'd fished out of a thesaurus to conceal their poor writing instead of just writing well or reviewing their work as a whole and looking for areas of weakness... you spent that much time looking for words to replace, why not look for ways to improve your content?
SECamus was one of my all-time greatest moments. :lawd (Even if no one got the joke of using "upcoming" instead of "up and coming".)
