Hello Trevor, there are others on this site who are much better at wordplay than me, but I'll think it over when motivated.

Hey - try come up with a neologism for post industrial, I want to have completely new coinages or usages on the list!
Thanks

I wonder what it would be like to carry an entire conversation with these. Funny-creepy.

I'm using your acronym idea for a list.

pollyanna commented on the user feedback
When I add a word straight to my new list, it always doubles it. Then if I delete the double, they both go. Am I going insane or is this a bug?
edit: I just noticed that if when I type in a new word to the list and then hit "left-arrow" over to the front of the word, then it doesn't double. Hmm.

This is my favorite list on Wordnik. Most of these words make me giggle with enjoyment.

pollyanna commented on the word autocomplete
I think autocomplete should be turned on/off based on personal user preferences.
I can see how for some it could be useful, but I hate it. It keeps interfering with my word look-ups and I have to re-search several times to get there.

The new site is lovely, and promising. May I make a simple request that you reduce the sensitivity or quick-draw forcefulness of the "autocomplete" feature in the Search at the top? I am having to re-type some searches multiple times.

Those are good. My (somewhat boring) suggestions: New Names for Economic Funerals, Unfunny Money, Terminal Financial Terminology, The Consequences of Short Term Thinking.

Ohh, I love this list. I recently re-discovered a story I wrote 10 years ago about the Thunderbird, which some people believe was the teratorn.
