Syndic

Jeffery had always wanted to travel, but he found that life as a syndic for OilCo was not exactly the kind of travelling he had always hoped for. Representing his company's interests around the world meant he could not really get to be himself oj these trips: he was just an extension of the company.

Endochiridion

True, Sean John was the world's first and greatest shark tamer, perhaps the only person who could fit that phrase with no doubt. But since the rapid spread of his worldwide popularity, it was inevitable that some inspired individuals attempted to duplicate Sean John's unique talents. Sean John did not encourage this. He did not put together an endochiridion for his wannabe shark tamer apostles to study.

Sardanapalian

The steward opened the door to room 301 and led Alfie inside. It was a cavernous expanse walled with elaborate designs, domed with a sparkling chandelier, furnished with stately dressers and elegant chairs - a purely Sardanapalian environment.

cunctation

"And the winner of this year's most valuable member of the oceanic community award is..." The presenter paused, letting a palpable cunctation hover through the room. "... Sean John the Shark Tamer!"

mewl

It washed up on shore, the dying animal, with enough life in it to mewl loudly, getting Sean John's attention.

Fantast

He is a man who sees things other do not. The walls of the skyscrapers and the ridges on the curbs link up with the movement of the clouds to form one part of the universal equation, the sum of which guides his lonely diatribes. He is a fantast, and he dares to speak.

Ravelment

It displeases me greatly when I'm collaborating on a media project in the post production process and our files are a ravelment of unlabeled and disorganized clips scattered on multiple hard drive.

Pachismo

"hey amigo, I'm going to vamanos. I'll catch you manana." George's new pachismo habit was really getting on everyone's nerves.

Natch

Little Timmy stared at his latest purchase from the pog store - a thick, heavy metal slammer designed to disperse and scatter his opponent pieces. With this behemoth, he pictured himself unstoppable. All games from now on would be played for keeps, natch.

larrup

Little Timmy stared out at the vast ocean. If he had both working legs like all the other kids, he could swim to that island across the channel too. It just wasn't fair. He watched the waves break against the rocky shore. The waters' motions grew wilder. Soon Timmy saw a dark shadow moving under the waters, and the water larruped against the land violently. The child limped closer, his cast clanking along the gravel beneath. Suddenly one giant shape shot through the surface of the water -- little Timmy couldn't believe his eyes! Sean-John the Shark Tamer was riding one of his great whites, hands grasped around the fin, legs straddling the giant beast. Both creatures landed gracefully on the surface and made their way toward Timmy....

Apoplectic

Our friend launches into a stuttering, tortuous style of storytelling when he gets excited - its tough to listen to these apoplectic rants.

Histrionics

Steven didn't enjoy engaging in a spat of histrionics, but he felt it was the only way to get people's attention sometimes. His generally soft-spoken personality made it tough to get people to listen to him. Only when he made a real scene of it was he able to drive his whole point across.

Bosh

It saddens me to see that varlet elevated to such a high level of status. I know that he only speaks bosh, but the audience seems to accept his words as true gospel.

armamentarium

Thanks to websites like Demonoid and Pirate Bay, I always have an armamentarium of digital media manipulation programs.
