I really hate that term- it brings to mind things better left locked away- but today it was the last thing I heard from my German professor, and I was at a loss for a witty post title. So there you go.
Anywho (love this word- though I can't for the life of me remember when I started using it), on this gloriously weird day I made up (or at least I hope I did) a new word, and I heard a new twist on an old phrase:
evility: the quality or state of being evil
"He didn't really sweep me off my feet- he just picked me up and ran away." (much thanks to a dear friend for this little gem)
AND, as if these were not enough to satisfy my nerdiness, earlier this week I discovered that pedestrian can be used to describe something as being commonplace. Strange, no?

ironic even, that that's not really the most commonplace usage for the word pedestrian.
ReplyDeletein a similar vein, have you ever noticed how phonetic isn't spelled the way it sounds?
No I haven't... wow. How strange.
