((DRAT!! It [b:03d715d578]is[/b:03d715d578] a word but that's not the correct spelling. :shock: This is:
Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis
The Oracle has a "k" in his. Probably a typo from those aged teeth and tongue of his. :twisted:
For you uneducated people, it means:
[i:03d715d578]noun[/i:03d715d578]: a pneumoconiosis caused by inhalation of very fine silicate or quartz dust
Supposedly the longest word in a dictionary; an artificial word said to mean a lung disease caused by the inhalation of silica dust))
Here's the next word: Antidisestablishmentarianism Þ

That's not the longest word. I've just had this conversation with my SIL. It [b:bc084b8ba1]is[/b:bc084b8ba1] the longest [i:bc084b8ba1]medical[/i:bc084b8ba1] term but it is not officially accepted as the longest English word. [i:bc084b8ba1]Antidisestablishmentarianism[/i:bc084b8ba1] use to be the longest word but it now rides in the back seat to [i:bc084b8ba1]floccinaucinihilipilification[/i:bc084b8ba1].
Floccinaucinihilipilification is the act of describing something as worthless :)

*PRANK!*
By the way... certain dictionaries are now refusing to list Floccinaucinihilipilification as a word, as it's main use has become as an example of a long word, rather than an actual word in current usage in the English language.

I would like to point out that Gabe actually f***'d up the game when he put "Bank" after Batty's "Pen." I would put forth that Pens are integral parts of Banks and are therefore directly related to each other, ergo, James is a ninkypants and should be subject to open chastisement and public ridicule.

No no no... you have to say "Prank!" because someone said "Mirror", didn't you read the rules?
And if it's a new game, then one has to start with "Ball".
Who would have thought something so simply could cause so much contention!!
Ah... yes... of course... it's us... we'll argue shit about anything :)
