I wouldnt even know how to START to say that one!!!

Hydroxydesoxycorticosterone and hydroxydeoxycorticosterones are the largest anagrams.

Great post! You get a ~10~ from me!
Thank you for taking the time to post your article at: Everyday Life - What is on your Mind? Post it ALL here!

While reading the books by Lemony Snicket, "A Series of Unfortunate events" I found myself laughing at the words of Sunny. She is still a baby and speaks nonsensical words in which only her siblings understand. Sunny says her best word yet in Book 8 "The Hostile hospital. , "Pietrisycamollaviadelrechiotemexity" which means "I must admit I don't have the faintest idea of what is going on.

The urban dictionary gives the following definition:

The state or condition of not having the faintest idea what's going on.

Donald Rumsfeld gave the president his daily briefing this morning. He began by saying: "Mr. President, yesterday three Brazilian soldiers were killed."
"OH NO!" the president exclaimed. "My God! That's terrible!" His staff was stunned at this display of emotion, nervously watching as the president sat, head in hands.
The president looked up with pietrisycamollaviadelrechiotemexity and asked, "How many is a brazillion?"

my favorite word otherwise:

sardoodledom (SAR-doo-duhl-duhm) noun

Plays having contrived melodramatic plot, concentrating excessively
on the technique to the exclusion of characterization.

[After Victorien Sardou (1831-1908), French playwright; coined
by playwright and critic George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950).]

"Most of Lubitsch's other plot sources are hackneyed representatives of
Sardoodledom."
Gerald Mast; The Comic Mind: Comedy and the Movies; University of
Chicago Press; Aug 17, 2004.

"There is even the Secret of the well-made play, Sardoodledom's ultimate
question: who is Godot? Will he come?"
David Bradby, Michael Robinson; Waiting for Godot: Plays in Production;
Cambridge University Press; Nov 15, 2001.

not too long but fun to say.
