Ohh so close!!! (to the full meaning I mean)

Its whole dictionary meaning is as follows:
(N) Stupid Head ; Stupid Person.


Its my favorite word!

Same page gives us
"JOBATION" (an especially lengthy reprimand)

I love obscure words.... especially when I am dealing with a recalcitrant recidivist offenders on a recurring basis... I need to amuse myself somehow.

Aren't sesquipedalian's a bit long winded with a propensity to excessively elongate the vernacular?

Wogoit or Woogit. The later might be considered offensive by some. Not by me though.:p
