33. Shuttlecock

[Throd]

2. Rectory

I showed her tender love in the rectory.

[sammythecat]

3. But..

[nomorenomore08]

51. He just meant the pure innocent platonic love of Christ, that's all...

:evilgrin:

[TZ]

:P

[graywarrior]

8. Seamen

[sammythecat]

9. come

:eyesroll:

...and "6 inches". It's amazing to me many things seem to be "about 6 inches", and mention of that seems to always demand the obligatory and tedious attempt at humor. "Can't get it in" also guarantees hilarity. Some people just never tire of some jokes.

[BurtWorm]

12. It's hard.

I know. ;-)

[sammythecat]

38. God, 6 hours later and I finally get it.

"It's hard".

OMFG you're one of THEM! :grr:

10. Peacock

[frogmarch]

13. Uranus

No matter which way it's pronounced.

[sammythecat]

19. Tragic loss, that name.

Before I first heard Carl Sagan put the emphasis on the first syllable, the "humorous" take on the old pronunciation never occurred to me. I was devastated by that bit of knowledge. Uranus, pronounced the "old" way, always sounded so beautiful, feminine, and exotic to me.

Now it's gone, forever. Now it's just "your asshole" in bright blinking neon lights. Too bad. :(

[frogmarch]

28. Yes, it is too bad.

In my family, we now call it Ouranos. The Greek pronunciation of Ouranos is oo as in book rah as in rather NOSS as in loss (oo-rah-NOSS). Emphasis is on the last syllable.

Uranus is merely the Latinized form of Ouranos (which is Greek for "sky"), so we feel completely justified in calling it by its real name. :-)

[The Magistrate]

18. Matriculate, Sir

As in the famous charge "My opponent in this election has matriculated for years, and is a well-known thespian!"

[gratuitous]

20. Not only a "well-known" thespian

But I hear that my opponent has even accepted emolument as a practicing thespian! The scandal! The shame! The horror!

[The Magistrate]

29. Emolument, You Say, Sir! There Oughta Be A Law....

[TheCentepedeShoes]

45. Wasn't that

from Claude Pepper's foe for his House seat?

[Canuckistanian]

56. "I just matriculated!" "Well, clean it up then"

Sort of an in-joke in Scotland, so I'm told.

Once I eased my dongle into her port, it got stuck, and I couldn't pull it out.

[KamaAina]

22. Niggardly

Like that of most conservatives, Justice Thomas' tipping is downright niggardly.

True fact: A DC local politician actually got pilloried in the press for saying "niggardly". Apparently someone misheard...

[BulletproofLandshark]

30. I remember that.

He actually got forced out of office for that.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niggardly

[sammythecat]

31. I remember that.

I forget the person or circumstance other than it was an appropriate use of a perfectly legitimate word and the quick tempered ignoramuses with limited vocabulary were so quick to display their ignorance and condemn the guy.

[pokerfan]

36. reminds me of this story

As director of communications I was asked to prepare a memo reviewing our company's training programs and materials. In the body of the memo one of the sentences mentioned the "pedagogical approach" used by one of the training manuals. The day after I routed the memo to the executive committee, I was called into the HR director's office and told that the executive vice president wanted me out of the building by lunch. When I asked why, I was told that she wouldn't stand for "perverts" working in her company. Finally he showed me her copy of the memo, with her demand that I be fired, and the word "pedagogical" circled in red.

The HR manager was fairly reasonable and once he looked the word up in his dictionary, and made a copy of the definition to send back to her, he told me not to worry. He would take care of it.

Two days later a memo to the entire staff came out, directing us that no words which could not be found in the local Sunday newspaper could be used in company memos. A month later, I resigned. In accordance with company policy, I created my resignation memo by pasting words together from the Sunday paper.

50. An early episode of 3rd Rock From the Sun...

Mary Albright calls Dick Solomon on the carpet for parking in her space. "For future reference," she tells her new colleague, "I have a red Volvo."

Shocked, he replies, "Please, Doctor Albright. We hardly know each other!"

The mouth just slides all around that word.
Try saying it, you'll see. :evilgrin:

I've been a football fan for most of my life, and yet I will laugh - every damned time - when Madden, et al uses the word "penetrate" or "penetration". It never fails. :7
