(Which just goes to prove you can't keep a good man down.)

Language is amazing, isn't it? You can warp the meaning of anything. If you want to, say, demolish a whole city block and kick hundreds of people out onto the street without causing an uproar, you call it "urban renewal." To help you justify your horrible acts, here are a few definitions and word origins for you to peruse. Enjoy.

Arachibutyrophobia- Fear of peanut butter sticking to the roof of your mouth.

Artificial Stimulant Indoctrinaire- Junky.

Constitutionally Incapacitated Swashbuckler- Coward.

Cerebral Embryo- Brainchild.

Cerebration- Thinking for the sake of thinking (sort of like masturbation, only it's for that other thing you use to think with).

Entertainment Liaison Agent- Pimp.

Eurotophobia- Fear of female genitals.

Helminthophobia- Fear of becoming infested with worms.

Parousiamania- An abnormal anticipation of the Second Coming of Christ.

Penis- From Latin, meaning "tail."

Porphyrophobia- Hatred of the colour purple.

Rapere Diem- Latin for "Rape the day."

Sheryl Crow- The second coming of Edie Brickell.

Spacially Challenged- Contortionist.

Vagina- From Latin, meaning "sword sheath" (just proves that slang really can be accepted).


And remember, the next time some idiot comes up to you and says, "My aren't we inebriated with the exuberance of our own verbosity," you just look them in the eye and reply back confidently, "Yeah, and I'm also crapulous with the ebullience of my prolixity as well."
