Vocabulary Building

Now, don't get me wrong. I like words. I like the feel of a rolling multi-syllabic word in my mouth (say that out loud: "multi-syllabic" - so satisfying). I'm just not so convinced that I can use these new words three times in my daily language, to really make them my own.

Slap Upside the Head has learned me about "homofascism" - from which Bill Whatcott, a mayoral candidate, is committed to protecting Edmontonions.

Also, via JJ, I was schooled about "secular humanist fundamentalists" and their "fetophobia". Fetophobia is of course the reason the "secular fascists" visit the "abortuaries".

I have a good word. How about "asswipery"?
