It’s a dictionary, Gym, but not as we know it! Thanks for this – lots of laughs
but I plead the fifth as to which of your examples I laughed at most of all
We could have a fun reverse-engineering game with this: can you guess what the word is from the definition?!
For example:
1. Love's by-product
2. A scheme for shortening human life through overeating
3. To secretly wish evil to one who has given us pleasure
4. An unnecessary evil
5. A place where the dead lie.
