DP, I don't go for those kind of back door shenanigans! I may be flattered... maybe even a little curious... but the answer is still no!

Just kidding, bribes are perfectly acceptable, but I loved the image from El Gringo's definition, so it is your turn El G.

Okay... How about Psycromorph?

Psycromorph : (SÄ«-Krow-morF) noun

An individual who possesses the ability to alter the shape of a corpse with the power of the mind.

The body was in a horrible state after the train wreck, beyond the repair of the morticians. We had to bring in a specialist, a psycromorph from Iowa. His rates were high, but he got the job done and we were hard-pressed to say exactly how the victim died just by looking at him.

Psycromorph
Known from Arabic translations of early Cynic writings (see Bradley 1983, et al.), the term was used to indicate a creature of myth invented by a Interlocutor to illustrate a particular philosophical point or issue.

Psycromorph

Psycromorph is what happens when you fuck with the Jesus by championing the rights of those with teh ghey.

WTF is a "ghey"?

Don't type when drunk, you're liable to spill your drink or slur your text.

Psycromorph

A rejected concept for a monster in the Alien films, one that would laugh repeatedly at the disgusting humans [cro-w], then transform into a large, squishy brain. Whoever thought it up was a total twat.

Psycromorph
From greek psychros, cold and greek morfe, form.
Verb describing the way a persons body posture is formed by long stay in a cold temperature. The term was first used by the sovjet doctor Ivan Saljarov in his reports from the fronts during World War II, where he experienced a lot of soldiers frossen to death in the trenches. Now psycromorph is mostly used in sociological technical language to describe the way cold weather can influence the bodylanguage. This is particularly seen in areas with very changing seasons, where the shift from autumn to winter normally will cause a complete alteration in body posture from a normal open and friendly attitude to an introvert unapproachable one.

SO.....? Who's the winner of this round? Inquiring minds wanna move on.

Yeah, you're right, NS. Time to pick a winner.

Great contributions from everybody, but Kuchen's definition really made me laugh and I can't wait to see the word he comes up with.

So it's yours, HK.

Tongue planted firmly inside cheek causes a slight slurring of the drink, a subtle spillage of the text.

Ponquillion

Ponquillion:

The highest honorific title attainable in the extremely secretive Society of the Porcupine, an organization akin to the Freemasons. The SOP is dedicated to the preservation of ancient hedgerows in rural England, which hedgerows the Society considers sacred. Other titles include "Ensnoutril", "Furspherus", and "Roly-Poly".

Ponquillion : (Pōn-Kwil-eeōn) Noun

The theoretical number of atomic particles contained in a thought-wave pattern.

Ponquillion
A special drink invented in the Puerto Rican city Ponce. Traditionally the Ponquillion will be made in a tall narrow glass and it consists of Puerto Rican raw sugar, brown rum, fresh lime leaves, fresh coriander leaves, pasteurized milk and fermented green chilifruits.

Ponquillion - A fifteenth century French paddle and ball game that, almost unquestionably, is the immediate ancestor of today's table tennis. It was played on a small stone table and the players used wooden gloves that looked like large oven mits. For a ball, usually, a prepared bull testicle was used.

Damn. Gutze made me thirsty (man, that sounds like a pretty kick-ass drink!).

El Gringo had me going right up until the "bull testicle" bit, then he threw me.

Some of these are pretty damned good!

*bump*

So what the hell's going on, HK? Too torn between incredibly brilliant phoney definitions to make a choice?

myes.

Weekend and all. Thought I'd give it a while longer, but 4 is plenty.

I liked them all and while i'm not sure how that drink would taste, gutze can provide us with the next word.

Thanks.

The new word is vertopsaliculus

Vertopsaliculus - an emblematic halberd-like staff held by the ruling pope, a prominent item of papal regalia. Although it's function is traditionaly purely ceremonial, there is strong evidence that the Vertopsaliculus was used in combat situations by the so-called warrior-popes, namely Urban VIII , Pius XII and, recently, John-Paul II (See the New York City Battle, 2003). Unconfirmed reports indicate that the last Vertopsaliculus is now part of a private collection in Vancouver, BC.
