Mine is insidious as it sounds cool and is apt in our modern world of fast news
Quixotic - cannot even remember what it means
It meant my Dad never played Scrabble with my mom ever again, that’s what it meant.
Across two Triple Word tiles, no less.
I think it means like a person is taking something that is foolish or misguided far to seriously.
Yes :) , it looks that it takes its roots to Don Quixote (english is not my first language but come on, Don Quixote I could have remembered that)
ℹ️ “exceedingly idealistic; unrealistic and impractical”
Discombobulated. The first time I heard it, an old man I worked with had used it and I gave him shit for it because I thought he had made it up. I still laugh about that sometimes
Paraphernalia is a fantastic word for “stuff”
Facetiously has all the vowels, in order, including “y”.
Fuck. Fuck can mean so many things. Just all round best word of all time.
Onomatopoeia, it’s a fun word on it’s own, but I love the while idea of it. Especially in other languages, like the million different words for dog barks.
Serene
Good
Applause
Super
Incredible
Hope
Dream
Mostly because of the positive vibes those words give me! 😇
You seem like a really positive person! :)
Aw thank you! 😃
Asinine. It’s a perfect descriptor and it’s succinct.
Lackadaisical.
ℹ️ “lacking enthusiasm and determination; carelessly lazy”
floccinaucinihilipilification
Ah, yes, the state or being of believing in NOTHING
Fuck, because it is the most fucking versatile fucking word we could fucking come up with for things that we don’t know what the fuck they are or we fucking do but no one fucking cares.
According to QI, “set” is the most versatile word in English
“Fuck” isn’t fuckin far behind though
Someone already took cattywampus, so I guess I’ll go with ennui or petrichor.
Bonus: triskaidekaphobia.
(Intense fear of the number 13.)
Thanks MTG.
Koselig, the Norwegian word for cozy that is also a reflexive verb.
Loaf
Effective has two effs. I appreciate that defective only has one eff. Like, if you give an eff about something, you can make what doesn’t work, work.
