which may be the most times a single poster is the only one to use a singular word.

of course it is because i keep misspelling the word.

Or making it up. Nothing called a "uvulva" exists as far as I can find, although there is a uvula hanging down at the back of your mouth, and a vulva ...someplace else, although not on you. :P

Defenestrate : 2

Sorry to be picky Deer, but I was fairly sure that a literate lot like us on the Watch had surely used this one at some stage. (I think it comes from the Old French word for window: fenestre.)

One use by Auleliel. My favourite is by Xar
If your co-workers decided to defenestrate you...
in the Cause and Effect thread in Mallorys. It's actually the last post in that thread (Feb 27th 2006) so if you'd like to reactivate an old thread and increase the count of an interesting word now's your chance :lol:

What did I do wrong? I searched (and pretty sure I spelled it correctly, which i did not in my post above!) for both words with no results. And yes, I ticked the "Posts" box. :?

immure: 1

If Time is an arch
And now is its peak
Will it's span contain
The answers we seek?

If Earth is asleep
And dreamers are stars
Will waking immure
Or break all the bars?

Does reaching into
The world we Create
Triumph o'er despite
Or hope desecrate?

A hero beholds
The paradox true:
Whatever happens
needs happen to you.

Not sure. Try searching again and see what happens. When I do the searches I come up with results for all the spellings.
