Word of the Day Contest

Thank you for selecting my daffynition, redcamarocruiser! I am delighted that my Google fu was up to the challenge.
However, I did not need Google to find the next Word of the Day. I encountered it about two weeks ago and I �ve been waiting to use it ever since.
The new Word of the Day is
PITYRIASIS.
Remember, do NOT give the real definition! Anyone who is caught giving the real definition is automatically disqualified. Go to it, fellow teachers! |

It �s a nasty disease where people become overwhelmed with sorrow for others � difficult plights and they can �t focus on their own lives. They sink under the weight of all the pity they feel. |
