Here's a little game I invented after my fucking computer automatically deleted the thread I was creating... All that you need to do is to write a word that you heard before but you don't know the meaning. Then the next poster must give the definition and then they can post a word they don't know as well. I predict this will be an easier way to fixate strange words and broaden our vocabulary. LOL! Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! I will start: Inconspicuous What the hell is that?

Hmm...this thread hit a dead end pretty quickly. I'd suggest people just post the last unfamiliar word they had to stop and look up (online or in a hard copy dictionary), along with its definition. That not being the OP's idea, though, I'll just list the last word I recall having to look up (and let you all google it): TOADSTONE
