Wacky Wordplay Wednesday!
Sometimes when life gets tough you just have
to laugh maniacally and lighten up a little to find your path back to sanity. I’ve always believed in a little inane to keep you sane.
Even Mayo Clinic says (with a giggle), “When you start to laugh, it doesn't just
lighten your load mentally, it actually induces physical changes in your body.”
To that end, enjoy …
DECALCOMANIA (dē kalʹkō māʹnē ɘ) n. – the process of
transferring decals to glass, wood, etc.; decal [WW #198]
I kid you not. Straight from the dictionary.
And here I always thought that applying a decal to your car window was just that—applying. I had no idea the process
carried one of “them $10 words” in its pocket.
So does that mean someone who does the
application is a decalcomaniac? C’mon, that made you smile a
little, didn’t it? 😊

With all of our running and all of our cunning | If we couldn't laugh we would
all go insane
Word Challenge: DECALCOMANIA. What is the silliest thing you’ve ever done? Write about it
and laugh all over again, as you fit decalcomania into your
week of inane and insane writings.
Learning knows no prejudices or boundaries, and it isn’t fattening!
