LOL !!!!!

i like this

i thought it was very funny

check the phobia list on the net and i think there is actually a real phobia of long words

i know lol

but this was great…it made me laugh

yeah, hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia is actually the fear of long words…

And they would have to make the term for a fear of long words the longest freaking word possible. Aren’t psychiatrists just absolute basta….I mean, well intentioned professionals, and stuff.

Oh, yes, naturally they are well intentioned professionals. Clearly they had some reason for this, um, interesting word choice.

Oh, you skipped “pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis”. That’s the longest word in the English language. (I spelled that without spellcheck or anything, I feel special!)

Hmm, I rather liked it.

What on earth does that long word mean?

i think he made it up… it looks like…

pneumonia... ultra... microscopic... silicon... volcano... coniosis (whatever that is)

funny story! hilarious even!

I will be back with the meaning of that word… if it’s not a mischievous trick!

Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis is ‘a lung disease caused by the inhalation of very fine silica dust found in volcanoes.’ It was created simply to serve as the longest English word. (and to scare people apparently! muhahaha!) The more widely used term is pneumoconiosis.

find this info on wikipedia!

Wow…I did not know that. That’s…um…very interesting!

Gasp hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia is my favorite word! I’m like obsessed with it.

Rofl!
Very funny.

stov- er, steve, why are you able to spell that without spell check?
