Gobbledygook - It's a REAL WORD!!! Check it out, yo!!!!!

Yes, this is a very random post. I was writing an email and I decided to throw in the word "gobbledygook" just for the hell of it. When my spell checker scanned my email, it saw that I had incorrectly spelled it and corrected it! So, I went to dictionary.com to see if it's REALLY a word, and it is! YES!

http://dictionary.referen...bbledygook
gob·ble·dy·gook also gob·ble·de·gook ( P ) Pronunciation Key (gbl-d-gk)
n.
Unclear, wordy jargon.

So, I thought it would be fun to throw out some random REAL words that you use that can help us expand our vocab and impress our friends! Your turn!!!! DO IT!

That's so funny! When I got promoted last year, my old manager (who was my age and hated me) emailed me and cc'd my new manager and said:

"Here's a truncated list of the things you did not finish before you left"...

Turns out she was wrong, but ever since, that word makes me think of her and I just cringe! Ha!
