    I stirred up my friend once say that if he got the ird documents in the wrong order then he would have to face a syntax penalty.
    He believed me for a good 5 mins.....fretting and checking everything was in order in the envelope. Then i could not hold back the laughter

    I have a couple of books called 'The Superior Person's Little Book of Words' and the 'Superior Person's Second Little Book of Words' and there are some great ones in there. Of course as the first book was published in 1979 many of the words are now in common usage - such as arcane, adulation, plethora, keratin, etc, but some are still uncommon enough to be used on idiots without fear of them knowing you are actually insulting them!

    Example: "My, you are very steatopygous, aren't you!" It means fat-buttocked - and the beauty of it is the listener is unlikely to be able to remember it long enough to look it up in a dictionary and even less likely to possess a dictionary that includes it.

    Or how about taphephobia - a morbid fear of being buried alive. "No, not with you on top Colapop, I don't think I could handle that, I'm taphephobic, you see."

    And here's another name for Jehovah's Witnesses - gyrovagues - originally monks who were accustomed to wander from place to place!

    I bet there are a few gynotikolobomassophiles amongst the KB community too - those who have a fondness for nibbling on women's earlobes!

    I've met a few who practice opsablepsia - not looking into another's eyes.

    Here's one for the guys who need a new illness to confuse the boss: didymitis - inflammation of the testicles.

    As for me, I am a fan - and indeed a follower - of opsigamy - which is marriage late in life. I just hope I never have to experience opsiproligery, which is an ability to have children late in life...
    Yes, I am pedantic about spelling and grammar so get used to it!
