Word of the Day
Latest word to be folded into everyday vocabulary:
poltroon /pɒlˈtrun/
–noun
1. a wretched coward; craven.
–adjective
2. marked by utter cowardice.
I also find immense joy in the related form: poltroonery. I just wish I had more reason to use it on a somewhat daily basis
Maybe it’s time to look for a job in swashbuckling.

I’m going to be rolling “bombasted” into my daily vocabulary. I’ve been meaning to for some time now. It will be in the form of an insult though, so watch out for me telling someone that they’re stuffed with cotton or hair.
It’s gonna be big.
