      It would be absolutely hilarious: http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/2930254/Floccinaucinihilipilification.aspx[^] See, I'm not sure if you knew about that post and were subtly trying to get somebody to link to it, or if it is as ironically amusing as I think it could be.

      My current favourite quote is: Punch them in the face, see what happens!

      Need custom software developed? I do custom programming based primarily on MS tools with an emphasis on C# development and consulting. I also do Android Programming as I find it a refreshing break from the MS. A man said to the universe: "Sir I exist!" "However," replied the universe, "The fact has not created in me

                      Yeah, they already did a great job with my credit cards PIN numbers, AAA emergency phone number and C++ operator’s precedence table.

                              Except in an old version of Funk & Wagnell's (sp?) dictionary I looked at many years ago where it is floccipaucinihilipilification. I find it is not very good as a word for 'hangman' - as soon as the player sees the length of it or guesses the vowel 'i', it is too obvious. It is also not very useful for Scrabble(R). So, once again, it is self-defining. Is there a word for words that are appropriate to their meaning (e.g. like 'dyslexia' which is hard for dyslexics to spell?) or a word for words that are inappropriate / opposite to their meaning (e.g. 'fat' which is a thin word) [Similar to onomatopoeia - which is a word to describe a word that sounds like what it describes]?
