I had occasion last year to communicate from New England to Merrie Olde, specifically to Royal Doulton, looking for some Winnie-the-Pooh favo(u)rs for a 90th birthday party (merely corroborative detail, intended to lend etc). They were quite accommodating in their reply, sent along a catalog of what was available, and prices, and indicated that my "local stockist should be able to assist further."

The meaning is clear, but I hadn't come across that particular usage before.

Dear WO'N: Your coinage would be banned in Boston. Why not be content
with "fellatist"?

Why does it have to be a fella? Couldn't it be a girl? I know one who fellata bed one night and hurt her back!

(Caution: do not run this message through the spell-checker...it has a dirty mind)

Not for those of us who eat Friends Beans. They don't talk behind your back.

Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanokoniosist- one who specializes in a lung disease common to miners.
Okay, I just put 'ist' on Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanokoniosis.

ambiguousist or ambiguoust - a mysterious, obscure person

Okay, okay. I am a suckist at this.

Should we retitle this thread "Blazing Saddles"? (Actually, they made the scene a bit too long, by a good half, and it lost its humor in the end. We would never make that mistake.)

Sorta like:

What stinks on Monday Night Football:

Fart from the Madden Crowd.

There was a young lady from Sparta
Who was proud to know she was parta
A group of gals then
Who were couther than men
And also known to be smarta.

The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind. The Fish

When the wind blows the cradle with rock...


Poor baby!

Not at all, WW - it has a smug smile on its face, delighted at being self-propelled.
