    Let's increase our vocabulary : )

    As Gandalf pointed out, Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia is an example of irony...much like the word dyslexia...maybe it hints toward the malevolence of our species.

    Some of my favourites: belligerence, conducive, prepostuous...and one I made up...socioschematic

    The prepostuous actions of our government exhibits a belligerence that is conducive to our perceived socioschematic ideal.

    Or summat!

    I guess I shoulda put the definitions of all those words, but I kinda couldn't be bothered lol
    But, I should define that word I made up: socioschematic.

    It means the accepted behaviour pattern given the scheme of things within a certain social network.

    Does that help?

    The sad truth of the world, these days, is that many people are too lazy to learn the english language (complex as it is). I love to listen to a well articulated speaker...in many respects, Quentin Tarrantino's use of language in his films.

    Transubstatiate. To break a substance down, metaphorically, into another object or feeling.

    Smoking pot transubstatiates into happiness for me, both physically and mentally.

    Myriad. A countless number of objects.

    When I smoke pot, a myriad of physical sensations occur in my neurological pathways. I can feel the blood moving through my fucking veins.

    Apophenia - is the experience of seeing patterns or connections in random or meaningless data. The term was coined in 1958 by Klaus Conrad, who defined it as the "unmotivated seeing of connections" accompanied by a "specific experience of an abnormal meaningfulness".

    The identification of a face on the surface of Mars is an example of pareidoliac apophenia.

    Transpicuous-adj.
    clearly seen through or understood

    As the police spokeman inflated the value and magnitude of the small marijuana arrest, his motives were quite transpicuous. It was obvious he was trying to instill fear in the community over the preceived dangers of marijuana.
