Life in an Age of Good Words

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of light, it was the season of darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair.
~ Charles Dickens, A Tale of Two Cities

It was a day of words catching my fancy.

Fictioneer
noun [fik-shuh-neer]
a writer of fiction, especially a prolific one whose works are of mediocre quality.

I’d call Preznint Idiot Boy the Fictioneer in Chief but mediocre is too damn kind to use in describing the Deception Demon’s tweets and utterings

I'm disinventing 45
Disinvent
verb (used with object) [dis-in-vent]
to undo the invention of; to reverse the existence of.

I’d like to disinvent Donald Trump.

Fecund
adjective [fee-kuhnd, -kuhnd, fek-uhnd, -uhnd]
very productive or creative intellectually: the fecund years of the Italian Renaissance.

The Obama years were fecund. They’d have been way more fecund-y had the lazy-ass citizens of this once great country come out to vote in the off election years. In contrast, these years of Tangelo Twat, Republi/Fascist rule have been wickedly devoid of positive, decent, good-for-the-planet and humankind moves. Also too, they’ve been incompetently Machiavellian. Just FYI and shit.

Still working on the disinvention
Self-possessed
adjective [self-puh-zest]
having or showing control of one’s feelings, behavior, etc.

Self-possession – what women in Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Ohio and Utah will no longer have once these draconian, bullshit bans take effect.
What about him? Can I disinvent him too?

Foment
verb [foh-ment]
to instigate or foster (discord, rebellion, etc.).

NOT to be confused with ferment though fermenting rebellion would be kind of awesome. Ultimately, mebbe, counterproductive.

Appellative
noun
a descriptive name or designation, as Bald in Charles the Bald.

So, the pResident can be accurately appellated Donald the Grotesquely Narcissistic, Cruel and Incurably Stupid.

Nebulated
adjective [neb-yuh-ley-tid]
having dim or indistinct markings, as a bird or other animal.

This can also be used to describe Donald the Dim-ass Fatally Corrupt’s speechifying.

Stymie
verb
to hinder, block, or thwart.

What Mitch the Enemy of Democracy does daily.

Consent
verb [kuhn-sent]
to permit, approve, or agree.

I can’t help but see this as CON-sent as in:
Every goddamned Cabinet head in this fraud riddled, shady as fuck, debauched administration was CONsent.
Proselyte
noun [pros-uh-lahyt]
a person who has changed from one opinion, religious belief, sect, or the like, to another; convert.

What the folks who voted for 45 SHOULD become if they honestly give a good goddamn about their children and grandchildren’s future.

Scaturient
adjective [skuh-toor-ee-uhnt, -tyoor-]
gushing; overflowing

The word kinda implies, to me anyway, that the gush, the overflow is of a decidedly fecal nature.
       Trump’s scaturient Wisconsin speech was a radically heinous, diseased dung pile of deceit.
That particular bucket of foaming at the mouth, mad-dog lies brings us back to Fictioneer. Of course.

Expatiate
verb [ik-spey-shee-eyt]
to move or wander about intellectually, imaginatively, etc., without restraint.

NOT to be confused with Expatriate – a person who lives outside their native country.

The rotten-to-the-core, obscenely exploitative racketeer pResident should be expatriated NOW. We should send him to one of those countries he’s referred to as shithole. We'll dump his ugly ass in some city center without a dime or shred of clothing. It’s a far better fate than he or any of his henchmen deserve.

Oh wait. Could this be interpreted as an act of war? Illegal dumping?

Popinjay
noun [pop-in-jey]
a person given to vain, pretentious displays and empty chatter.

President Asshat Popinjay – I like it!
