I like that one. It's right up there with thingamabob... the term you use when you are discombobulated and can't think of the real name of a thing.

Oh, here ya go, @morgoodie. You'll love this one for the fun to say factor:

Bibliobibuli

It essentially means drunk on books or words (or basically somebody who reads way too much - if there is such a thing as reading too much).

No you can never read too much. I just went to the library with the kiddos and we got some books. I have like 7 or 8 that I want to read. I need to be just abandoned in the library for a few years and I would be happy. You're right though it is fun to say. Thank you

LOL I think I will go impignorate my computer!!!! Oh my goodness, who would even say that. It sounds like what the daddy pig did to the mama pig and now they have piglets. I am literally LOLing right now. Way to go @thisnthat

macrosmatic ( an adjective .)

It means -having a very strong sense of smell.

[morgoodie]

I am glad I don't have to get up and vaccimulgence the cows tomorrow. I know I didn't use it exactly right but you get my point. It doesn't sound right. Can you imagine a farmer using that word to describe what he does. No? Me either.

So from now on I am agamous instead of single and who just happens to be macrosmatic!

Nice addition!

I know someone like that. No one else will notice an odor or aroma, but this person will smell something a mile away.
