The nincompoop over there has me on tenterhooks!

That thingamajig on QVC has me flummoxed.

That young whippersnapper over there is a real flibbertijigibbet. He better skedaddle or he'll cause a big brouhaha.

These are fun! Thanks @Tinkrbl44 ! At least I now know how to spell these words.

@AZfem

LOL ... that was one of the reasons I posted them ...

I am very persnickety with spelling and don't want to lollygag when I'm posting, to have to stop and look up a word, to make sure I spelled it right.

My personal faves are discombobulated and bamboozled.

Since Pumpernickel is a real bread, I'm not sure it fits on this list, but I'm not suggesting it be removed ... too many people would be flabbergasted.

Amen, sister !!!

I don't have occasion to use most of these words, but it sure made for a fun read. Great thread!

A couple or few weeks ago, I made up and posted a new word on a Fashion thread.

Instead of bottoms and b*tts, I say 'buttoms'.

'More or less', 'Right or wrong', 'In general', and 'Just thinking out loud ' (as usual).

One of my all-time favorites is "hornswaggled!"

I knew all along we were being bamboozled that the old nincompoop was full of malarkey, but I'm flabbergasted that people aren't gobsmacked by the whatnot and poppycock now.
