New here very surprised at the lack of resonant post's

duck Rudy!!

I got my kevlar suit on.

Any way, I am not going to floccinaucinihilipificate over it.

Words With Friends. I'll whip your butt

Oooh, that's kinky! I like it.

Oooh, that's kinky! I like it.

I dare you to use that word at least once a day for a week in casual conversation.

Do you know what hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia means? It's the fear of long words.

I like that outfit! It makes you look so ... dominating. And the bullwhip makes a complementary accouterment.

You know, I hope you excogitated carefully before issuing that challenge.

I could saddle you with writing the full chemical name for the human protein titin, but it would be cruel and unusual punishment for the members as it is 189,819 letters, and would take one about three-and-a-half hours to pronounce. However, given your talented background in the medical arts, you can probably recite it from memory already.

BTW: why is it that Doctors refer to what they do as "practice"? I mean, when are they going to stop practicing and doing it for real?

[Epi-hunter]

Thanks! I agree - it's a pulchritudinous outfit. And definitely.... dominating.

Well, the full chemical name for titin is a brobdingnagian word for sure. Yes, I can recite it from memory. It was required knowledge in order to graduate (so we could "practice"). However, there are potentially longer words than that, did you know? For example, if you were to name a strand of DNA, with all of the repeating base pairs/possible combinations, you could easily be into the millions or even billions of letters.

I was looking for a good engineering joke to post, since you poked fun at my profession. But I couldn't find one that was funny.

Ah, that's because us engineers don't have a sense of humor. I thought you knew that.

Here is one:

A Engineer gets home from work and sees a note on the fridge from his wife. “This isn’t working, I’m at my moms”. he opens the fridge and checks the light, then grabs a beer and feels it cold. The engineer thinks to himself. “The fridge works fine”.

Here is one for your side:

Doctors at a hospital in Brooklyn, New York have gone on strike. Hospital officials say they will find out what the Doctors' demands are as soon as they can get a pharmacist over there to read the picket signs!

[Rudy]

I agree Cheap Thrills !!

Rudy I'm an elementary chum but a prodigious fan of "lilliputian" words and also enjoyed you two.

Dan

Glad you enjoyed the exchange Dan.

I have a question for you. You name is Dan but your screen name is Del. Both begin with "D" and each is three letters. Why not just go with Dan for a screen name, specially since you sign your name at the bottom of your post.

I have witnessed a few of these bouts .Way over my head as I have not been introduced to any of them in crossword puzzles or scrabble .

Like I said, Epi is the smartest woman I know. You have to work with assidiousness to challenge her. She is pretty comely too, if you ignore the dirt under her fingernails after a hard day 'tecting.

Or ........you could add three letters and still come up with one name dandelion

Comely and intelligent is nice but all that and detecting dirt under her fingers would make a passionate detectorist like me howl at the moon .

Why use a big word when a dimunitive one will do?
