amoeba


An amoeba is an amazing entity. Its also really fun to say "amoeba" out loud. You can also use it as in a derogotory manner when talking about people who annoy you every day. An amoeba is essentially a dolt or a dimwit (he who is not dynamic).


An amoeba's physical composition also spawns several other good words...chiefly, vacuole. Sometimes its not necessarily a word's meaning so much as it is how a word makes you feel when you say it outloud. Go ahead, say "vacuole" out loud at your desk. I promise you'll be in a better mood for about 5 seconds. Vacuole.


Now, if only that damn amoeba would stop floating around my office so I could actually get some work done.


amoeba > vacuole > skulk
