Lexiphanic* Abuse November 24, 2006
Posted by Jen in : Bits and Pieces, Journal , trackbackBlimey, it’s been a long week.
‘So what’s the cure?’ I hear you ask…
Well, Nurse Jenny recommends copious amounts of the distilled fruit of your choice together with some highfalutin language, assembled into insults suitably indecipherable for the toad-like colleague in your life.
Try exclaiming enthusiastically with, perhaps, the merest twinkle in the eye and a coquettish tilt of the head:
“Gosh! Until now, I hadn’t realised quite how utterly limaceous you are!”
Combine this with a captivating smile and that creepy maintenance man will grin, foolishly not recognising his etymological kinship to a slug.
Go on… you know you want to!
* Lexiphanic: Given to the use of pretentious terminology, such as the word lexiphanic
