Thank you for this new word that I never knew I wanted so badly.

Wow, seriously, I might have posted this if I'd known it beforehand.

I heard an author use it on TV a few days ago and I had to google it. It would make a great title for a movie.

'Shenanigans' seems to be making a well deserved come back

Hmm...'poppycock' maybe, it's more polite than 'bullshit' but means the same thing

'Gadfly' is a fine term for super annoying trouble makers

I'll probably think of more

reply

Gadfly is a great one, definitely!

On your second, I dug up Malarkey a few weeks ago in pretend-anger and then said "Dammit, you made me use the M-word!"

It was a very geeky exchange.

Oh wow, tinnitus must have a shared root, nice (had to look up ur word of course)

reply

You are lucky you have never had tinnitus. It can be pretty awful. I use to get it if I blew my nose too hard. I learned my lesson.

reply

Holy crap! I know the delicate nature of the ear nose throat system very well, and Ive learned things the hard way, but yes I agree I am lucky in that regard.

My Dad has very light lifelong tinnitus from firearm training so he always cautioned me about my ears.
