Much as acronyms annoy me, here's a new one. "hjta" = hijack time again.
the worthless word for the day is: momist
/MOM ist/ a fault-finder [obs]
from Momus, the Greek god of ridicule, who for
his judgments of the gods was banished from heaven;
hence a fault-finder, a captious critic
a daughter, disciple or son of Momus is a facetious
or humorously disagreeable person; a wag, a buffoon
