#weirdwordwednesday #weirdwords @CBee

Boy, is this a good one to help with understanding a major logical fallacy. And why would we need that given today's political climate? 🧐

Also genuine, true blue, the real deal, and so on. I feel like it could describe the fab new governors, the new NYC mayor, the folks who flipped the script all over the country. Well done 🩵 🌊 💙 #weirdwordwednesday #weirdwords

CBee @Amiable I read someone described as an “echt mensch” recently. Which is a huge compliment 😁 1d
CatLass007 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙 Great word! I‘ve never heard the word before. I‘m so glad @Amiable and @julesG pointed out that its origins are German. And thank you @CBee for adding to our vocabularies every week! 1d
CBee @CatLass007 you‘re very welcome ☺️ 16h

Pickpick

This was a fun read by the former editor-in-chief of the Canadian Oxford Dictionary. The book is structured as a year in reading, with a selection of topics that fit each season. It's a great book to pick up and put down, which is how I read it (although sometimes it was hard to resist “oh just one more set of words“).

This could also qualify for my #MondayMood, which —frankly—is becoming my mood every day of the week

lil1inblue I heard facebook was a synonym for enshittification. 😂 2w
Amiable @lil1inblue I think this word was invented specifically for Facebook! Well, and also Twitter. Or whatever the South African Nazi calls it now. 😖 2w

A Locked Tomb read through podcast used this word on the episode I listened to yesterday, and I knew I needed to post it today. Such a good October word.

I didn‘t really realize it until today, but grimace is sort of a weird word to say. Try saying it a few times and see if you agree 😁 And who could forget lovable Grimace (but why did they give him that name?) of McDonald‘s fame! #weirdwordwednesday #weirdwords

Kerrbearlib Love it! 3w
dabbe Fab word. And your face actually contorts into one the more times you say it! 💜 3w

Amiable I remember looking it up once because I was wondering what Grimace was supposed to be —it said he was a taste bud?? Am I remembering that correctly? Because that‘s a super-weird cartoon character. 😄 3w
lil1inblue Grimace is such an underutilized word. But so descriptive! 3w
BookmarkTavern I love this word so much! 3w
ncsufoxes When I was little my parents took me to McDonald‘s somewhere in NJ & they had a person in a Grimace costume. Apparently I was terrified. I vaguely remember it (I was probably 3 or 4). I remember there was a Hamburgler & Ronald. My kids thinks it‘s funny when my mom tells them I was scared of Grimace. 3w
CBee @dabbe 😂😂😂 3w
CBee @Amiable that‘s news to me and if true, that‘s just…..weird 😂 3w
CBee @Amiable so apparently he was originally “Evil Grimace” and stole milkshakes. He‘s been described as a taste bud, the embodiment of a milkshake (🤷‍♀️), and just a lovable blob. I had no idea about any of this 😂 3w
CBee @ncsufoxes what a story! I mean, I can get why he might be scary though 😂 Especially if confronted with him in real life. 3w
TheBookHippie Why is a taste bud purple ? 3w
CBee @TheBookHippie the ultimate question 😂😂🤪🤪 3w
