nahiku888 commented on the word pursuant

I have only seen this word used on legal documents - mine!
It makes me feel uncomfortable - to say the least - but then virtually ALL legal jargon makes me feel the same.

nahiku888 commented on the word pastiche

only heard this word in reference to films --- by a so called expert ( He was a prof at USC film school ) ...and when no one in the audience quite got the definition correct, he made a couple sarcastic remarks - needless to say THIS did not endear him to our small community which is faaarrrr from Hollywood.

Back in the olden days when Playboy Clubs provided gentlemens entertainment - the waitresses, also known as bunnies, had a bunny mother. - a housemother for "bunnies".

as in ingesting footage into editing software - every time I hear "ingest media" I get a very uncomfortable feeling that the software is eating the video.

You don't need to use curlies to list words. Just type the word into the box and ENTER.
