Didn't I submit this word a long time ago? http://verbotomy.com/verbottle.php?jargonism_id=4112 - ErWenn, 2007-07-05: 12:44:00

Wow. You sure did! I guess it only picks up duplicates from the day's word? Hey, you got 29 pts for it. I didn't get any :( Sorry 'bout that ErWenn. I'll try to think of something else. - purpleartichokes, 2007-07-05: 13:53:00

OK - changed. Hope no one already did this one, you can only change your word once now. - purpleartichokes, 2007-07-05: 14:24:00

What's the big deal? We don't own these things. A couple of weeks ago I used 'youthanasia' on the Monday and somebody used the same word for the Thursday puzzle of the same week. I'm 100% sure it was innocently done then and also here. - Stevenson0, 2007-07-05: 20:42:00

I wasn't actually offended that you picked the same word. Just surprised. In fact, I had to go look it up to make sure that it wasn't somebody else who came up with that word. I didn't expect you to change your word. Also, since my word was "grubsess" and yours was "grubsessed," I don't think the automatic thingy would catch it anyway. - ErWenn, 2007-07-05: 21:39:00

but not meloncolic - galwaywegian, 2007-07-05: 05:57:00

and I bet her best friend was Prunella - they probably moved in the same circle - Jabberwocky, 2007-07-05: 06:06:00

Did you know that diarrhea is a genetic condition? It runs in your jeans. - ErWenn, 2007-07-05: 12:48:00

I mean "genes." Damn you, puns that only really work spoken out loud! Hm...I wonder if there are any good puns based on homonyms instead of homophones, so that they only work when written, and not when spoken. - ErWenn, 2007-07-05: 12:49:00

jeans is much funnier - Jabberwocky, 2007-07-05: 13:20:00
