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

Pronunciation: /ˈanˌθelm/

Sentence: After eating nothing but carrots for a week, the yellow tint of his skin betrayed the fact that he was slowly being anthelmed by them.

Etymology: From Anthelme Brillat-Savarin, who originally said "Dis-moi ce que tu manges, je te dirai ce que tu es," ("Tell me what you eat, and I will tell you what you are,") from which we get the phrase "You are what you eat."

you're a very smart guy ErWenn - Jabberwocky, 2007-07-05: 13:15:00

Would it decrease your opinion of my intelligence to learn that I only know this quote because it shows up at the beginning of every episode of Iron Chef? - ErWenn, 2007-07-05: 21:37:00

I didn't really hate brussel sprouts until I drank brussel-sprout-flavored soda, which was the nastiest thing I've ever tasted. And I've tasted cigarette ash. - ErWenn, 2007-07-05: 12:38:00

But are sprouts revolting in Brussels? - Clayton, 2007-07-05: 17:49:00
