I don't mind if the rhymes are truly deplorable. But I'll always find the effort adorable. It's half the joy writing this churl. Coming up with things to make logophiles hurl.

What do logophiles do when you tell them to hit the books?

First, they consult their thesaurus.

Next, they swat, thwack, larrup, spank, bust, sock, wallop, punch, and clobber the literary paperbound publications.

"If logophiles want to be lexicographers when they grow up, then lexicographers want to be etymologists."

This is not wrong.

You know what's wrong? My phone underlining three words above in red. "Etymologists" isn't even an obscure word or a proper noun!

For the logophiles:

Pistanthrophobia: (n)

A fear of getting hurt in a relationship or fear of trusting people due to past experiences of life.

Due to my decades long dating experiences, I suffer from a rather extreme (at times) form of Pistanthrophobia. It sucks & I hate it, but that's me🤷‍♀️

For my logophiles:

Ombrielle (n)

The version of someone you liked romantically that only exists only now in your memories.

It took me years to finally release the ombrielle he left inside of my heart.
