Narcisstatistic
Created by: Nosila
Pronunciation: nar sis stat tis tik
Sentence: No wonder there are so many distracted driving laws and lawsuits against people too stupid to concentrate on what they are doing and act safely.

COMMENTS:
Just for the record, I made this before I went to read the other verboticisms, so the similarity to the submission "musisolating" is coincidental. - Krixwell, 2013-09-11: 09:26:00
