I subscribe to Word of the Day, I feel that we are never to old to stop learning. Most of the words I know, other times the words are so odd I’m like uhhh, yeah, ok….whatever.
Then there are times they are so unusual that make me giggle. Today is one of those days.
Today’s word of the day is “cockalorum”. Call me juvenile but I bust out laughing when I read it.
Now for those of you who don’t know what it means here is the copy and paste of the definition.
noun
1:
a boastful and self-important person
2 :
boastful talk
No one believed Marty's cockalorum about being an expert pool player, and as it turned out, he was indeed just as bad as the rest of us.
"No one is saying Little Floyd is a conniving little cockalorum, but … he would very much like to add another belt to his legacy. It is with much certainty, on his part, that he will." — From an article by Paul Strauss on EastsideBoxing.com, August 6, 2011
If you click on the little speaker thing it will take you to a page where you can hear it pronounced.
Anyway…I thought the word was funny. *shrugs* I have a warped sense of humor though.
Enjoy your day/night everyone!
Well does it? *giggles*
