Free Rice has me talking like Nabokov

[darkstar]

Most recently, the drowsy little corners of even my dreariest days have been rendered with a curious clarity, pellucid, purged of the umber murk that used to cloud them.

How about you?

1. I liked Elizabeth Hurley in her school uniform.

[darkstar]

2. Memory wanes, bedazzled and bereft, while desires wax anew.

:hi:

[MilesColtrane]

3. I abhor such games;

they make my temples throb with abominable pain-but I have braved it and pored endlessly, with a commentator's infinite patience and disgust, over the crippled syllables in your post to find the least allusion to relevant circumstances.

Not one hint did I find. Not the reference to Free Rice, nor your own imagined hysteria express anything here that might be construed as having some bearing on the circumstances of the free exchange of debauchery that is the DU Lounge.

[darkstar]

4. My crippled syllabocation you may, indeed, abhor.

Still, my epistles willy-nilly shall I post.

[MilesColtrane]

5. I guess I'm just a Sellers out.

Or, if you prefer, a Goon.

[darkstar]

6. Quilty as charged, sir.

:hi:

[MilesColtrane]

7. This exchange has taken a sinister bend. n/t

[darkstar]

8. See how the conversational fire pales and darts harlequin-like?

[Capn Sunshine]

9. I'm trying to break 50 on the vocab level

I've encountered several words that I would only say "WTF???" But yeah, just like that book by Nabokov
