Two voices in a vacuum - like that Beckett play, Not I.

Apparently we are the only wordies on line today. Amazingly, we almost filled the whole homepage.

I've been searching for others that have fun with words and Wordie looks like a great place. Your interest in words is very similar to mine. I especially focus on how word combos can trigger thought or give the mind a puzzlement to find meaning. It's amazing how only two words can do that. Write me sometime at nearsounds@hotmail.com and I'll try to explain more of my thoughts on areas of minimalistic wordplay.

Chained_bear probably has the orangest of all. ;-)

Yes please, do you have orange flavor?

Yarb: gesundheit. Do you need a lozenge?

Well I think they're both excellent words. Especially clorblsnrtzkn!

Hey! You commented on my imaginary words. No, calimaufry isn't gallimaufry, it's a word I made up as a kid to describe this particular feeling of giving up on being bothered and feeling very good about it... kind of. That mixed with the feeling of an end-of-summer sunset where the air seems to change colors, too. Clorblsnrtzkn's definition is secret; the word, being, obviously, a play on Rumpelstiltskin. I think the way it rolls (or, rather, grinds) off the tongue is infinitely more satisfying, though.

Great movie.

Not intentionally, can you fill me in?

thank you for the comment, is "yarb" a reference to "Hot Fuzz"?

- the man servant of the villain would say "yarp" i was a letter off

At the end of your...ohhh, yeah. I think I'll order some pizza now.

Hope you're enjoying yourself, yarb, even though you're having to work!

The only guinea pig I've seen so far was on the end of my fork. I'll keep my eye out for your wild herd, cb, but I'm in Lima now, my Andean sojourn over, so I think the chances are slim.

I did see vicuña, though.

6 months ago chained_bear said:

Please, please, please tell me if you see any herds of wild guinea pigs. I would love to see a herd of wild guinea pigs.

6 months ago yarb said:

Thanks both. I have to do crappy work while I'm there, but the Andes are calling me nonetheless. Argh! Panpipes!

6 months ago reesetee said:

I really, really like your profile photo on Librarything, though, yarb.

Have a fantastic trip! I'm almost as envious as chained_bear. :-)

Bloody hell! I've always wanted to go to Peru! Please tell me how it was when you get back, and have a great time. *is insanely jealous*

You're funny; commenting on deleted words that don't exist on any list, and referring to listed words in the comment. It's like playing with a toggle switch to read them back to back to back. :P

cb: I'm not on facebook. But I might join with a pseudonym just so you can "friend me", as I believe is the term. But I'm going away to Peru for two weeks so not until after I'm back.

sean: haha. Yes. That is one humdinger of a word. But it's almost too much of a good thing. It's as though I can't fully savour the 'un' when I'm distracted by the 'k', 'p' and 't'. It's word-sex-overload.

So your favorite word should be unkempt?

Yarb, are you on Facebook? There's a Wordie group there, you know!
