I've found a place to play with words! Thanks for being here. Don't you love it when a pompous, pretentious person tries (and fails) to impress? The 'word' used really is perfect for what he was saying: ex: That person is so voicetrous.

You won't find much in the way of pompous, pretentious person(s) here but you will find great puns, intelligent observations and plain old fun here. I like voicetrous - will be interested to find out if it is a coined word or whether one of the AWAD folk will refer to some ancient text and come up with a case of its being used in 1602! Again, welcome - and Happy Fourth of July weekend.

Is that what you want to know? Just have finished my 3rd cup of coffee, and I 'get it'. Had never seen that question coming! Thanks for the welcomes, I'm ready for fun, fellowship, puns, and pleasures.
