Monday's Word of the Day

I've used this word before, thinking it was modifying some noun. No no....it's an actual word.

crapulous

\KRAP-yuh-lus\ , adjective:
1. Given to or characterized by gross excess in drinking or eating.
2. Suffering from or due to such excess.


How odd...

Have you ever used a word you didn't know?

Yes. Voluptuous.

I don't want to talk about it.

Wow. That is pretty awesome.

My made-up words don't ususally exist in real-life. But I have a new dream thanks to you. Now, I one day hope to come across a word in the dicitionary I thought I made up and find out it has a meaning totally different than the way I use it.

Is craptastic a word? Or (and excuse my bad language, but...) shitton?

Because those are my favorite.
