"Moot" and a special Valentine's Day WOTD... "Unrequited".
Abhorrent's a good word too, I think I prefer the verb form 'abhor' better tho.

zenzizenzizenzic
the eighth power of a number.
although it isnt used anymore, its a cool looking word.
taken from zenzic, the old word for a squared number.
Does that make the 1048576th power of a number zenzizenzizenzizenzizenzizenzizenzizenzizenzizenzizenzizenzizenzizenzizenzizenzizenzizenzizenzizenzic?

i think clowns are spooky. watched steven king's "it" at a young age.
a friend of mine has a fear of clusters. if she sees a bunch of pebbles on the ground that have randomly formed a circle or group, she'll kick them away to restore randomness. i don't think she can eat swiss cheese either.
the word of the day is junket.
