WOD WINNER
 

After deep and lengthy consideration of all the participants� wonderful contributions and a thorough study of their work,  and being well aware of the great responsibility with which I have been trusted (or should I say thrusted?... not sure�), I have unanimously decided that the winner of today�s WOD is�

 
for his / her wit and charm.  This is his guess:
 
TRICHOTILLOMANIA

tri = three
chotill = chortle
mania = a mass madness

It �s an epidemic in which a lot of people start laughing uncontrollably in 3 parts as in "hahaha hahaha hahaha" or "hohoho hahaha hehehe". It �s very dangerous and there �s no known cure.

Here is the real meaning of the awful word (no laughing matter, guys!):
Trichotillomania: the compulsive urge to pull out one �s own hair.
 
Wish you all a wonderful week!
