Created by: ErWenn
Pronunciation: /fənˈdɪbjulə/
Sentence: One's fundibula are not invisible, though we are often disinclined to see them.
Etymology: From Vonnegut's chrono-synclastic infundibulum. The way I see it, the place where everyone's personal fundibula meet is a chrono-synclastic infundibulum.

I was very close to selecting the word "fundilia" without reference to Vonnegut, but then I realized how close it was to infundibulum that I couldn't not steal it. Incidentally, I'll be very disappointed if tomorrow's definition is not "those places where all the different kinds of truths fit together."

I'm hoping that tomorrow's definition will be "a proud and meaningless association of human beings". Nice word by the way...
