Welcome to My Page
Hello, I am ZikesMan and welcome to the 187492nd member page to be created on H2G2. I'll start out by telling you I'm a bit of a SesquipedalianSesquipedalian - n. One who is inordinately infatuated with polysyllabic obfuscation, preferring never to employ a less complicated syntactic arrangement of descriptive words when there exists a single expressive unit that amalgamates the multiplicity of morphemes comprising the simpler phrase. Among the manifold objectives of multisyllabic, holophrastic verbalism are those of: rendering the author's meaning indisputably precise yet simultaneously incomprehensible; demonstrating through superior orthography and lexical awareness that the writer is manifestly more erudite than the reader; disempowering intellectual challenge to the proponent's argument by using logomachinations to divert discussion to the establishment of the opponent's comprehension of the vocabulary as opposed to addressing the factual import of the treatise which, upon analysis, may well prove amphigorous. The obscurantist sesquipedalian is likely to compound the reader's difficulties by indulging in glossosynthesis, thus enabling the author to dismiss all opposing views as ultracrepidarious. In other words, a sesquipedalian is one who would call a spade a manuo-pedal excavationary implement. (Person who uses long words.) and may be hard to understand at times, but then I may just be doing some wishful thinking... Ah well, I'll just get it out by spouting some long words:- Hypercerebralelectrokiotosis
- Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis
- Floccinaucinihilipilification
- Antidisestablishmentarianism
- Defenestration
