Merriam-Webster has posted its top ten words, which are only slightly less dour than the previous year’s words. “Quagmire” makes a repeat appearance from a few years ago. A la elementary school, I will now attempt to use them all in one sentence without cheating with a semi-colon or dash. Consider yourself challenged to do the same.
- truthiness
- decider
- war
- insurgent
- terrorism
- vendetta
- sectarian
- quagmire
- corruption
Insurgent scorpions, drawn by piled dishes and the corruption of food scraps, have launched a terrorism campaign in my quagmire of a kitchen, leaving the decider no choice but to declare war and google anti-scorpion tactics for my sectarian vendetta, because in all truthiness, scorpions in the house are against my religion.
