OK, is that a real word? LOL I know it is, of course, but you just taught me a term I never knew. GOD I love learning new stuff!!
Only problem is, there's no one around here smart enough to be impressed that I even know "crepuscular" now... Maybe I can screw with people and let them think I'm insulting them LMAO

Re: not so dinermal
How would you pronounce "crepuscular"? Are the "u"s long or short?
Which is more tempting: The fruit of knowledge or the possessed, talking serpent? DUH! - The Serpent!

OMG- that's...that's...cool? funny? I'm not sure, but it made me laugh.
And I pronounced it right w/o checking first. I knew that pesky education would come in handy some day.

Re: not so dinermal
New words can be quite fun, especially the biological ones. My favorite thing to call people is a "deuterostome". We are all deuterostomes. All vertebrates, chordates, even echinoderms (starfish, urchins, sea cukes, sand dollars) are deuterostomes. It means, during the embryological stage of our development, our buttholes develop before our mouths. TRUE STORY! Originally Posted by Lovok
