Mal ,'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."
So you're saying there's a connection between Spike and Roger Angell?
Spike's a big closet baseball fan.
really? I had never heard it till William said it
I guess the point in either case is that it's a bit precious as a word. "Brilliant" would probably suffice.
Which is not to say that precious words don't have their own merits. You'll have to pry "effloresce" and "deliquesce" from my cold, stiff fingers.
Well, when your starting phrase is "bulge in 't.' your poem has some other problems, poor guy.

I think you just like words that end in -esce.
I think you just like words that end in -esce.
That's not true. They don't have to end in -esce, just contain it. Like "quintessence." See, it's a very snooty word. Klassy with K. Also a good song by Squeeze.
Not all of them. Just guessing, but I doubt "detumesce" is a favorite.

It's not the kind of word that guys like to even contemplate, much less hear.
So I understand. It's not like Voldemort, though.

Heh. I would think "impotence" might get the Voldemort treatment.
"Don't say that word! I just had too much to drink. I've been very stressed at work lately! It's not...you know....That word."
Yeah. Well, spending so much time writing as Munch, I've acquired a new respect for The Penis, and the people that have them. Freud was still wrong, though. Y'all can keep 'em.
don't talk about the Melty Man
