cacoepy, new word of the day
we may be cacoepists
Labels: language, vocabulary
Cacoethes Cognitum
The irrational yet irrestible urge to know or make known. The CC is a "club" founded by a small group of medical professionals, who have made a pastime of turning medical cases and discussions into medically irrelevant history lessons, philosophical rants, and displays of one-upsmanship. The official premise, since the "club" was named, has been to exchange and discuss various books, movies, and ideas. Sometimes we eat sushi.

You maybe. I am clearly anti-cacoepy. I know I'm not perfect, but a cacoepist I am not.
Well, you are a cacoe by virtue of the blog, but you sure were pissed when I called you a cacoepist.
I was just concerned. Really its kind of like saying that an antibiotic may be a probiotic just because they both contain the root -biotic. I get your point though, so thanks for introducing the word to me.
sounds like you are anti probiotics.
