Save the Words Sunday!

I stumbled on this crazily amazing link earlier today, and after wasting a few years on this site I just had to share it!

http://savethewords.org/

It's a collection of all the fabulously descriptive words that nobody uses.

It's actually a little depressing when you think about all those poor, forgotten words.

But you can spend a fun and very educational hour clicking around enjoying all the crazy words.  My new favorite word is "quibblism," or maybe "operiment," or even "stiricide (the falling of icicles from a house)."  I adopted all three.

Come on!  Let's spread the words!  Go and adopt and start utilizing those obscuriferous words!

(And come back and tell me which you adopted!)
