    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!

    What the hell is that? LOL!

    Not an attention slut.

    What does 'LOL' mean?

    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
