Usage Stories

If the point of this site is using, learning, and sharing words, and the words you're supposed to use, learn, and share are not your average quotidian words, some interesting, funny, and awkward situations will arise:

  • You were taking the GRE and an analogy with afflatus came up
  • You told your parents that you were sick of living in Seattle and preferred more xeric cities like Phoenix and they looked at you like you were crazy
  • You met the person who won perspicacious on Quotidian Word and now you have a kid named Logolept ("Little Logs, we call him")
