Totally Weird and Wonderful Words | Erin McKean

It‘s not a type of popsicle 😂😂 I read this word a ton in my last book (The Dictionary of Lost Words), PLUS it can also refer to a bundle of muscle or nerve fibers (which is neat). #weirdwords

Megabooks, TheBookHippie, vivastory, mandarchy, dabbe, IndoorDame, peanutnine, psalva

CBee @The_Penniless_Author I‘m tagging you! You must have some weird words to share 😊 (no pressure, ok maybe a little 😂) 2y

IndoorDame I always look this up over and over when I read Emily Dickinson hoping for a detailed explanation of her system, (and then give up and start google images searches) 2y

AnnR 😂😂😂 Great post. Thanks for making me smile this morning. 2y

CBee @Ann_Reads oh thank you! Glad I could make you smile 😊 💚 2y

Amiable That sounds like a word I can use at work when I'm mad and want to swear: “Oh, FASCICLE!“ And since I work at a hospital people will think I'm just editing a patient fact sheet. 😁 2y

julesG @Amiable 😂😂 2y

CBee @Amiable 😂😂😂 please do this and tell me what happens 😂 2y

CBee @IndoorDame that might send me down a rabbit hole 🤨 2y

TheBookHippie This is what we called our long papers due at end of term in prison … I mean parochial school 👀 2y

CBee @TheBookHippie oh my 😳😳😳 2y

TheBookHippie @CBee 🤣🤣😵‍💫😵‍💫😅😅 never fear I had plenty of time in detention to write them 🙃 2y

CBee @TheBookHippie why am I not surprised? I love it 👏🏻👏🏻 2y

TheBookHippie @CBee I had 4.27 GPA ✊🏼 detention was for dress code and “arguing” with teachers 👀 2y

CBee @TheBookHippie not surprised at your GPA whatsoever 😘😘 I always think of it as “questioning” the teachers….. but of course parochial school, ugh that‘s so rigid and strict 😳 I was always a “good girl,” my ma was a teacher and she would‘ve been horrified. So I just talked over my musings with her 💚 (edited) 2y

TheBookHippie @CBee Yes bad parenting decision to send me there. I got a written apology when I turned 30 from my father. My mother still thinks it‘s fine 😵‍💫😅 but it was her faith 🤢🤐 what can ya do🥴 OY. Teacher mom 😬 2y

dabbe @TheBookHippie My mom worked in our media center, so I had the same problem. I was the ONLY senior who didn't go on the Senior Ditch Day. I got to hang out in the library all day with my mom. She wouldn't even call me in to stay at home. #goodoldays

Had to edit my error! 🤣 (edited) 2y

dabbe “Fasten your fascicles, it's going to be a bumpy night.“ #rewritingallabouteve #bettedaviswouldhavenailedthatline
