whicky in the wacky woo
totally bugged!
No, "whicky in the wacky woo" is a snippet from an old
blues tune "Mama from Yokohama". Mid-30's. I can't
remember the artists, except that they were black. One was
short and skinny and the other fat and tall.

Oh, Ok
You're an odd duck.
who?
Just another way to say different you duck, you!
Freak or unique? *Doo, do-doo doo, doo do-doo doooo*
your a unique freak....
No totally different freak, never before recorded in the anals of human endeavour.
Hmm, maybe that's an Australian practise. Round here we prefer to record things in big books.
I was waiting to see if the seppos would spot that one....of course they wouldn't pick up the difference between that stated and annals.
Thank you for that little piece of new age wisdom. Now if we could just get all the teenage white home boys into the concept we would be going places.

I didn't spell it wrong. It is an actual word.
I stared at the Thesaurus and copied it. There was no way I could look at the word, minimize the thesaurus, than go type it without keep on looking at the word. So I made the window small so I could type and look at the same time.
Some of those words were to hard for me...not in my vocabulary :rolleyes:.
The word contradistinction was one of the words.
But does anyone know what it means?
Sure. The prefix "contra-" means opposite, against
diction: generally accepted to mean proper speaking
distinction: better than average, over and above, ...
Therefore:
Contradiction and contradistinction:
can't talk and is scum
Contradistinction means distiguished by being opposite.
