Anthropomorphic is an awesome word, but sadly there is little call for using it day to day.

Have you considered becoming a furry?

I got to use "nomenclature" in a conversation at work the other day, it was awesome. The librarians love it and the normal people get this odd look as they can't work out iif you have said something a bit rude or not.

I was also accused by somebody highly literate but barking mad of being in possession of "egregious mendacity".

Both excellent words, neither true.

Does "Reefer" mean the same thing in the UK ? I followed a van home today that was in "Reefer supply services" It also hired out "gensets" whatever those are, some kind of bong I imagine.

Better late than never, and totally relevant for the vast majority of internet forums, I give you Obstreperous.

Flense

Two unpleasant things I was of a mind to do to incompetent air conditioning buffoons who have the front to refer to themselves as engineers

Knocky stick , precision instrument used by above buffoons (hammer)
