better than other peoples'. you perfectly gave a word FOR the definition. - ohwtepph, 2007-04-25: 19:55:00

It's a good word, but I'm not sure it better fits the description than many others as Ohwtepph mentions. I think it better describes the emotional reaction to the discovery itself. But I think paying too close attention to the "rules" of the game is unpardonable in cases such as this. Afterall, it just limits the fun we have. - petaj, 2007-04-25: 23:18:00
