The big punchline.

Posted by Smalls at syr-24-24-14-133.twcny.rr.com on November 26, 2002 at 10:42:07:

churlish (n.) adjective
rude, unfriendly and unpleasant
ex. Only a churlish person would call this town dull.
ex. They invited me to dinner and I thought it would be churlish to refuse.

The irony that no one who could KNOW the proper meaning of a word out of popular usage like "churlish" would act as "churlish" as churlish sort of seals the deal doesn't it?

The one word the guy CAN spell is a word that wasn't used in casual conversation since, oh, London 1880.

Seriously, whoever made up Churlish please take a bow.

And then stop posting so much. It's gotten kinda overkilly, y'know?
