Clearly it's not a word you say outloud, unless you're at one of those murder mystery dinners and the character you're playing is a literary critic from Oxford who wears tweed jackets with elbow patches and you think the bearded and mustached oil barron did it and you say, "I believe our hirsute friend from Texas bludgeoned the girl in the library with a candlestick."rachelsayssohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08053263932484618552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6651110500363613502.post-51579970954144038272007-08-01T09:28:00.000-07:002007-08-01T09:28:00.000-07:00Is this a proper use Rachel or Liz?When I was sing...Is this a proper use Rachel or Liz?<BR/>When I was single I was repulsed by hirsute men, especially when it applied to their backs. I fell in love and lost all sense of reason. Now I don't care anymore?<BR/>Huh? How was that?

I think secretly I am a smarty-pants too, but I have the memory issue. Know what I mean? I COULD be really smart, "If I only had a brain." tee hee.

I categorize it in the For-use-in-company-of-only-those-that-are-overeducated-AND-have-a-lovely-sense-of-humor column. Along with the other favs; "modicum", "cacophany", "asinine"... etc etc. <BR/>High 5 my friend - High 5Ms. Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08610613067782656189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6651110500363613502.post-43865867699390508142007-07-31T06:50:00.000-07:002007-07-31T06:50:00.000-07:00I love that you're smart enough to use words like ...I love that you're smart enough to use words like hirsute! I'll admit - I did have to look it up!! Good word, but I agree that it's a smidge too pretentious for day-to-day conversation. It reminds me of this line in "Never Been Kissed"...a worker comes up to Josie in the newsroom and asks for her opinion on the proper spelling of "theater". Josie says something like: "Standard American calls for "er", standard British calls for "re", so unless you're a pompous American, I'd go with "er"."Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08222717266527397554noreply@blogger.com
