Watching Twitter tonight has taught me one thing, Phillies fans are a bunch of whiny dicks. But it's ok, every tank needs a bottom feeder.

And I thought I wanted to hug Johan last week. I think I'm officially in love.

I noticed that your list does not contain the word "niggardly" meaning stingy or miserly. I first encountered the word in reading Silas Marner for High School English. I think that it is obvious why it has fallen into disuse in America, because one group perceived it as being racist. It has nothing to do with race and is not even spelled the same as the infamous "N" word. It is sad when a perfectly good word is banned for alleged racism. If you will remember, a college professor was chastised over using the word. Unacceptable! As long as my husband and I are alive, this word will live in our vocabulary and probably among the well-educated of our generation. Bah humbug!
