"Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis"
Lung disease caused by the inhalation of microscopic dust or silica filaments.
Thought to have been invented by the writer of puzzle books to imitate the often excessively long and complex terms used in medical text. |

"Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis"
Also well remembered by anyone who got home from school in time to watch Catchword, as this was the longest word permitted and would win every time it was used.  |

If I tried to say it the right way round it would sound like a satanic chant/curse |

"I just read on a lady's profile "I don't meet discreet people". It made me chuckle.... So, what words have you used in your bio without actually understanding? 🤣"
Pretty sure she knows the meaning and meant it as she used it.
Lots won't meet if you have 'discreet' in your bio as it's a red flag having to state it as opposed to simply assuming people are able to keep their personal business private for privacy alone as opposed to hidden from their significant other... |

Your interpretation is the antithesis of what she wrote. She explicitly wrote that she doesn't meet "discreet" people, rather than those people whom she assumes are discrete because they neglected to state that they were. |

Noooooo
She won't meet people who say they're discreet.
Because... why do they have to say it.
I see it as a red flag.
I will always ask why they have to say 'discreet' and 99.9% of times they're attached and cheating.
So yeah, that. |

How does she know they are discreet? |

Athletic is also often used without any evidence provided that the person is especially fit or able to move much, before getting winded. Even in a 3 legged race, with Bolt as the partner |

I had no problem understanding that one - maybe because I studied volcanology for part of my degree and subsequently ran an electron microscope laboratory! |

This.
I avoid anyone who puts it out there that they're "discrete", because it's a synonym for "cheating on my partner" on here. |

I like to make managers reach for a thesaurus. In the last year I have managed to get the following into various work related comms:
Deleterious
Lackadaisical
Tumultuous
Herculean
Fractious
Next on the list is 'niggardly' |
