Come on, people, we need more votes to sufficiently detirmine what the best words to use are. It's not exactly a very difficult thing to do.

I am thinking, Jazzo. It is just that I'm so far behind that I missed lots of the threads the first time and it is taking me ages to read/re-read them with all the giggles n'all. Did you know that Mav and I once had a conversation about not understanding "go figure"? Y'all sounded so strange in those days. See we've all come a long way in multicultural understandings. Anna posts notes on how we might say things, Jackie unravels complex Brit slang. What is the world coming to?
I'll be back soon with my fab five.

Sorry, Jazz - I'm with jmh - took me too long to read them all and I got sidetracked by the gobsmacked thread!
My votes go to:
g. gobsmacked
h. dipsetic
o. time
p. triboluminescence
%. enantiodromic - but can anyone tell me why this is jumping me into the 'terms of endearment' thread half way through??!?

yes, this happens with old threads (and this is quite an old thread) once you reach the limit of your posts/page preference.
Edit Profile/Display Preferences and look for this:
Total posts to show on one page when viewing a thread in flat mode (default is 10)
set it for something like 100
THIS WAS THE BASIS FOR TRYING TO LIMIT THREADS TO 100 posts, to minimize the effects of this "feature".
