Hey y'all missed you too I was truly is the dirty south and hey so the olympics started, yeah fucked if I had to know. I just found out from going over email back log and old word of the days. Urbandictionary's July 24th hits it SPOT ON. The definition as follows, from July 24, 2012, olympics:
Iván Abrego, M F, chaz2b and 5 other people liked this
n. Loose assemblage of activities undertaken quadrennially by over-ripped folk with an odd view of life and difficulty prioritising. Small trinkets on coloured ribbons and needlessly ostentatious flower arrangements are commonly given to several of the better entrants as stirring tunes play. Flags and advertising signage tend to be prominently displayed and portly men in suits shuffle about needlessly. ____ I couldn't sleep yesterday so I flicked on the olympics and caught some women's arm wrestling; it looked like the 85kg class. I think a Bulgarian won. Then there was rhythmic gymnastics. I swear to God. Rhythmic gymnastics. ___ soporific ?sports go usa marketing drug fest steroids roids. U-S-A U-S-A U-S-A (we kno how to hit balls with sticks HOOAHhh!) U-S-A Über Alles!

Actually Google didn't give in. They told him that he had a grow a pair and deal with it. They did, however, make it more difficult to Googlebomb.
- Anika
AHhahahahhaha,ok gotcha, but LMAO at oohoohh the irony, by Santorum making it an actual newsworthy/blogworthy etc story by being all pissy, he was actually causal to just the opposite. Where now there's actual valid websites, url's and articles on definition #1 and not just empty keyword/url GBomb sites. Which would explain how it's still at #2 when googling Rick Santorum, what a douche. I'm tumblring this.
- sofarsoShawn
I posted an article the other day, with an interview with Savage. I think he mentions how many hits the sites has gotten over the past 9 years and he doesn't even maintain it. I also think that Romney's campaign has bought ads on the site, which kills me.

"Petrichor (pronounced /ˈpɛtrɨkər/; from Greek petra "stone" + ichor the fluid that flows in the veins of the gods in Greek mythology) is the name of the scent of rain on dry earth. The term was coined in 1964 by two Australian researchers, Bear and Thomas, for an article in the journal Nature.[1] In the article, the authors describe how the smell derives from an oil exuded by certain plants during dry periods, whereupon it is absorbed by clay-based soils and rocks. During rain, the oil is released into the air along with another compound, geosmin, producing the distinctive scent. In a follow-up paper, Bear and Thomas (1965) showed that the oil retards seed germination and early plant growth.[2"

CWs new name iteration, made me look up the word. I've never heard it before and what a great word it is. I always wondered if that smell had a name. Bonus, I got to use it in my Scrabble game. Which pissed off my opponent who promptly resigned the came. Thanks, Chris!

From the above NPR link: "So when the soil now dries out, these actinomycetes produce force. And then when it rains, the force of rain kicks up these tiny spores in the air, and it sends some really - a very pleasant aroma. It's sort of a musky smell. You'll also smell that when you are in your garden and you're turning over your soil. And that's a good indication because that tells you, you have good organic material in the soil. The soil is not too wet. It's not too dry."

Thoughtless, careless sex happening right before a major disaster or possible ending of the world, without thought of consequences. Figuring that this was the end of the world I turned to the girl sitting next to me and said 'why not' as we commenced to have passionate apocalypse sex; I just hoped that this time, it was for real...

Hahaha!

It's Urban dictionary's word of the day :) & apocalypse sex is probably some of the best sex out the you ca get, better than "make up sex" I'm sure, and conjugal visit sex. Recklessness unhinged, lust & pleasure.

Tonette - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...
Halil and Mary B: #TeamMonique liked this
"The Tonette is a small, end-blown flute made of plastic, which was once popular in American elementary music education. Though the Tonette has been superseded by the recorder in many areas, due to their price, durability and simplicity, you can still find plenty of plastic Tonettes as well as Flutophones in use in elementary schools around the nation. The range of the Tonette is from C4 (middle C) to D5. It is also known as a song flute. The Tonette was introduced in 1938. Designed as a pre-band instrument, the tonette was nearly unbreakable, chromatic, and tunable. It was easy to blow and the fingering was simple. By 1941 over half of the grammar schools in the United States had adopted the Tonette as standard pre-band equipment. The Tonette's pleasant flute-like sound was also used for special novelty effects in radio, television and film."

Just played this in Wordfeud just to see if it was a word.

We all learned the Tonette in my school. Every single kid could play "Mary's Little Lamb". And nothing else.
- m9m, Crone of FriendFeed
We had those, too. But our teacher called them "recorders". I didn't know they had another name.
- Spidra Webster
My grade school had classes in Tonette as well. If you wanted to be in band later you had to take those classes. I loved it and went on to play flute.
- comix aka martha
Martha, we had recorders instead of Tonettes. It was required for us to play in 4th grade. I also started learning the flute then, mostly because that was an easy extra hour out of class on Tuesdays. =)

I learned a new phrase: Spoliation of evidence - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...
"In law, spoliation of evidence is the intentional or negligent withholding, hiding, altering, or destroying of evidence relevant to a legal proceeding.[1] Spoliation has two consequences: the act is criminal by statute and may result in fines and incarceration for the parties who engaged in the spoliation; also, case law has established that proceedings that might have been altered by the spoliation may be interpreted under a spoliation inference. The spoliation inference is a negative evidentiary inference that a finder of fact can draw from a party's destruction of a document or thing that is relevant to an ongoing or reasonably foreseeable civil or criminal proceeding: the finder of fact can review all evidence uncovered in as strong a light as possible against the spoliator and in favor of the opposing party. The theory of the spoliation inference is that when a party destroys evidence, it may be reasonable to infer that the party had "consciousness of guilt" or other motivation...

Word of the day: Absquatulate.
Sepi ⌘ سپی, ᏓᏰ #team Monique, Maitani and Eivind liked this
Etymology: Blended jocular mock-Latin word. Arose in America in the 19th century (about 1837). Probably made up of the following parts: The Latin adverb and prefix ab, "away (from)", (maybe taken from abscond), the suffix -ate (maybe taken from perambulate or undulate), and the middle portion, "squatul", which might be a derivation of to squat.
- Halil
Verb: to absquatulate (third-person singular simple present absquatulates, present participle absquatulating, simple past and past participle absquatulated) (intransitive) To leave quickly or in a hurry; to take oneself off; to decamp; to depart. (transitive) To cause to absquatulate. (intransitive) To die. Synonyms: (leave quickly): abscond, decamp http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki...

A fun word, but doesn't roll off the tongue so easily.
