To think that the word "askance" is underused?

[Salmotrutta]

Because DH looked at me askance tonight.

What a bastard.

I'd be vexed about that.

I suffer from ennui too.

And I might be enciente this is an utter lie as I'm post-menopausal

Heaven forfend

I would have been sorely irked with that.

You should liberate yourself from the scoundrel.

I'm discombobulated if truth be told...

Don't be causing a kerfuffle now.

And suffering from ague too...

My neighbour is a bounder and a cad too.

It's most distressing.

He sounds like an utter arriviste. LTB

I can tell my ennui joke on this thread! Hooray!

What do you call a bored footballer? Thierry Ennui.

Well, he may also be a scoundrel

can you disambiguate your posts so that the hoi poloi can understand. (I am off to find a dictionary to learn how to spell and for definitions)

I'm deadly serious Mrs TerryP

I think you'll find that disambiguation is the preserve of the carpetbagger Susan

Well, I'm discombobulated about that Salmo.

Why castigate the casualty of the quandry samandi?

I think your assumption that nobody else uses 'askance' somewhat atavistic, Salmotrutta. In fact, it seems to me that several posters on MN are somewhat solipsistic...

This thread is unashamed frippery.

I used comestibles in a fb post t'other day and had 3 compliments on the back of it

There is a dearth of antimacassars on this thread.

Save our chairs from the threat of brylcreem!!!

i have just had to explain diambiguate to a 7 year old. the british museum website is not always the best source of info for homework.

Atavism is the curse of the savage.

Oh, and my 9yo used discombobulated unprompted in his spelling sentences last week. I don't think I've ever been happier.

Desist from being such a rabble-rouser BOF.

You're just invoking a quibble.

Nobut, I wanted to click Like on that
