good one. - texmom, 2007-06-08: 07:19:00

Excellent word petaj - hmm... I wonder why you have pet in your pseudonym - perhaps petios is your second language - Jabberwocky, 2007-06-08: 09:05:00

today is a day when good words truely run a plenty. i wish i'd've come up with something this good. stupid television filling my brain with laughter and not verbotomies. - jadenguy, 2007-06-08: 09:37:00

You're just lucky I work all day--that word was my first instinct! - mplsbohemian, 2007-06-08: 20:15:00

petois occurred to me straight away when i checked the cartoon before leaving work. Then I had to go to tennis and didn't get home for a couple of hours, so I was hoping that no one else would think of it. - petaj, 2007-06-08: 22:18:00

I'm embarrassed to admit that my only second language is verbotomese. Typically in Australia, most of us have not become fluent in anything but English. - petaj, 2007-06-08: 22:29:00

I'm addicted to Arrested Development. - jadenguy, 2007-06-08: 09:25:00

perhaps i should change my sentence since i've gotten no attention for a clearly awesome word... - jadenguy, 2007-06-08: 11:26:00

Awww, don't pout! Here's some attention... ATENTION PEOPLE! PLEASE CHECK OUT JADENGUY'S WORD. IT'S QUITE LOVELY. Better? - purpleartichokes, 2007-06-08: 11:38:00

actually, i'm smiling a bunch now. that was amusing! thanks. - jadenguy, 2007-06-08: 12:12:00

sorry jadenguy - there are just so many good words today and yours is definitely a great one - Jabberwocky, 2007-06-08: 12:37:00

i was just joking because my sentence is terribly esoteric, nominally tangentially related to the word, and the product of a lot of allusionary jokes. purpleartichoke did get me to chuckle, so all's well that ends with laughter. - jadenguy, 2007-06-08: 15:03:00

hehe to that sentiment - Jabberwocky, 2007-06-08: 15:05:00

hehe to that sentiment - Jabberwocky, 2007-06-08: 15:05:00

there must be a problem with the comment button today - it seems to be rePETitive - Jabberwocky, 2007-06-08: 15:22:00
