Episode 389: Wacky Word Wednesday #7

It’s Wednesday, which means it is that time for an abundance of adjectives (bit of a sore subject, as I failed the challenge), as I delve around and dig up another wonderful, weird or wacky word. I had two to choose from this week that I liked the sound of, and as they are both similar in meaning and I will get to use them both anyway, I will choose the one that has the best sound to it…….

Pillage. This is a wonderful old word that smacks of Vikings, plundering(my other word) and purloining anything they could get their sticky mitts on. Invading and raiding everything in their path, ransacking and ravaging, littering and looting.

It is destroying and desolating whatever is in their way, stripping it bare and scarpering with the spoils! Rifling and robbing is the name of the game!

Episode 377: Wacky Word Wednesday #6

I love it when Wednesdays come around and I can have some fun with a wacky, weird or wonderful word. Today I have chosen a word that I love the sound of, as it has rather an onomatopoeic quality to it. Sadly though, it is not used nearly enough so let’s dig it up and give it a whirl!

Piffle. This is a word for people that talk a load of bull! Those that prattle about poppycock, jabber utter gibberish, babble lots of balderdash, and drone endlessly about drivel!

It is hogwash and hot air. futile and foolish, just the kind of random rubbish, a slimy salesman might use to try and flog you a pig in a poke!

Actually, this word could be legitimately used to describe this pathetic post!

Episode 366: Wacky Word Wednesday #5

Woohoo it’s Wednesday and time for me to have some fun with a word that I like the sound of! Well, as I am feeling a bit frisky today, I have chosen a word that is very playful. Let’s have some fun with…..

Tantalizing. This word is a tease; tormenting and tempting, provoking promises of delicious delights that may or may not be forthcoming. It can arouse and awaken, entice and excite. badger and beguile until you are begging for more!

It is enthralling and captivating, creating dizzying desire that needs to be sated, in a satisfying seduction!

Free-For-All Friday #13

Welcome to my Free-for-all Friday number 13. I have got another wonderful collection of blogs for your enjoyment,  so there is no unlucky 13, as everyone’s a winner! Please go and visit these wonderful blogs are they are well worth it. I’ve even got a bit of raunchiness for your delectation this week!

Joeyfully Stated I love Joey’s blog as she is a very straight-talking woman, who has a great sense of humour too. This post I could relate to perfectly as our family do exactly the same. It is a great fun post.

My Spanglish Familia This is another great blog written by a lovely lady who describes what life is like living with Bipolar. She is frank, and honest but also manages to laugh at herself, and some of the situations she finds herself in.

Nicholas C Rossis I don’t want to give too much away about this post other than to say you really must read it – or at least try to, I failed to get to the end!

Author Erika Kind This has Adult Content and is a little raunchy. Erika has a very rich and varied blog, but I just had to include this post as I loved it.

Sahar’s Blog This is a thought-provoking post which is pretty topical at the moment. I think Sahar has made some valid points here.

Fabuliciousfifty I have only just started following this blog which was recommended by another blogger, and I found this post to be really helpful to me for various reasons.

So there you have a bevy of blogs to keep you occupied and entertained, not to mention enlightened for a while. I am sure you will enjoy them as much as I did.

Episode 357: Wacky Word Wednesday #5

Hooray for Wednesday when I get to fool about with another word that has caught my fancy. This time it is a wonderful word, being French in origin and sounding far nicer than the meaning of it is! May I present to you…..

Maladroit. Oh this poor word blunders and bumbles through life, blissfully buggering up everything it touches! It is ham-fisted and heavy-handed, stumbling and lumbering, tripping over anything in its path.

Being ungainly and uncoordinated, it is graceless and gawky, with its butterfingers and two left feet; a piteous sight to behold. A clumsy klutz who is both inept and incompetent….sounds a lot like me on the dancefloor!!

Episode 349: More on Wacky Word Wednesday

I thought I would have a little fun tonight and record a little video of myself reading out the Wacky Word Wednesday post I did recently. Trista from All But The Kitchen Sink  thought it might be nice to hear it read aloud.

I have had a go at it as I always love to try something new. See what you think.

Episode 345: Wacky Word Wednesday #4

Oooh I do love Wednesday when I can play with a word that is weird, wonderful or just downright wacky! Now for some unknown reason, the type of words that appeal to me always seem to have some sort of sexual connotation to them (and even if they don’t I still manage to find one) and today’s word is no exception, so I give you…….

Concupiscent. This is a very lecherous and lustful word. A hot and horny, heavy breathing, panting, pouting  quivering mass of sexual energy, looking for an erotic encounter. It is the playful partner, tantalising and titillating, teasing the senses into a frenzy of fervid passion and libidinous longing.

It is no surprise to me whatsoever that this word is Latin in origin! They sure knew how to have fun.

Episode 335: Wacky Word Wednesday #3

It is time for me to find a wacky, wonderful or weird word to play with, and this week’s word comes courtesy of my dear blogging buddy Cat. He and I share a very similar sense of humour as well as a filthy mind!  So this week we give you….

Voluptuous. What a bodacious and buxom word this is.The well-proportioned woman, curvaceous and shapely, bursting out in all the right places! She is sensuous and sexy, enticing and erotic. teasing and tantalising with a fulsome figure to be proud of.

This lady is boobilicious and bootylicious, and knows how to work it to her advantage! She is hot and spicy, warm and welcoming, not to mention delightful and desirable. She is, most certainly, all-woman!

Episode 326: Wacky Word Wednesday #2

It’s my favourite day of the week as it means that I get to choose another weird, wacky or wonderful word. Today’s word is normally used in two ways, needless to say, my favourite one is the naughtiest of the two! So without further ado let’s look at……..

Wanton.  Ooooh this is a salacious and shameless word. It it licentious, not to mention loose, immodest and immoral. This is a lustful and lecherous libertine, playing fast and free with her virtue (or lack of)!

On the other hand it can mean, malicious and malevolent, wilful and wicked. It is the violent and vicious person trashing everything in sight without a care. It is gratuitous but groundless destruction, which is both purposeless and pointless.

I certainly know which of the two would describe me! 🙂

Episode 318: Wacky Word Wednesday!

As I am now lamenting the end of the Blogging From A-Z Challenge and the fun I had finding words that appealed to me, I have decided that I will do a post on a Wednesday highlighting a weird, wacky or wonderful word. I am kicking off with a great-sounding word today……..

Cantankerous. This word is the crabby and crotchety, crusty and cross old codger that likes to moan and whinge about everything. He is grumpy and grouchy, miserable and morose. His ill-tempered and irritable demeanour makes him snappy and sour.

Or what about the sullen and short-tempered child, cranky and quarrelsome, who will not be pacified?  They are prickly and petulant, obstinate and onery, not to mention fractious and  downright foul!

A bit like me when I get hungry really!
