Game idea: Bad Etymology
« on: June 13, 2012, 01:06:19 pm »
Define the previous person's word in a funny, silly, and totally incorrect way, then suggest a word for the next person to define.  :D

For instance:

Quote
Saturate: To be full up - from old English 'Satchel Weight' - said to be the amount of food that will fit into a standard hip bag, also used of the amount of food one can eat that results in needing a nap.

To start off the game, I offer these 3 suggestions:

Insects
Baroque
Flippant
Jesus had two dads and he turned out okay.
