Bluebrad, that makes me think of mordents and inverted mordents from all the music theory exams.

Ah the benefits of a geological education, being able to produce a ceaseless tide of shit, rock-related jokes.

Quite like Mississippian as a word. Always have trouble pronouncing and spelling it though.

For some reason this word has been stuck in my head for a few days.

recidivistic

For some reason this word has been stuck in my head for a few days.

I used to be in a band called "recidivist", which meant that every time people asked the name of the band it sounded like "recidivist......what?......recidivist"

We should've changed our name to recidivistwhatrecidivist just to add confusion

I've typed recidivist too many times now, it doesn't look like a word any more

I'd like to ad "poovery" sp. as it is a little onomatopoeic, and quite useful down the wall if people are using their heels, knee-bars etc.

Note: both poovery and recidivist used in the film of the tv series Porridge

I watched the league of gentleman film with some mates a while ago and non of us could stop yelling "AN HUMUNCULOUS!".

[slackline]

Homunculus use to be a leading theory in embryological development, before microscopes could be used to observe eggs and sperm it was thought that embryos developed from small pre-formed versions of the baby/adult.  See Font of all disinformation

Thanks Mr Logic.

Thanks Mr Logic.

No problem, although it wasn't a logical deduction as I never learnt latin so couldn't have derived the meaning from the words aetiology, but did learn about it in developmental biology.

[SA Chris]

Yes.
