Commentary:

This word has been gracious donated to us by Steph of SillyBean.net. No we are weird words aren’t selling out so much as we desperately needed a word for today and Step was willing to provide. If you’d like a plug, by all means I’m more than willing to sell out. Just remember, it needs to be a weird word in English and a hyperlink of your choice could be seen by nearly a dozen people!
