AAMIINNOO : .... acids. They

AAMIINNOO : .... acids. They make up proteins and some neurotransmitters. Neurotransmitters are messenger molecules in the brain involved in signalling between cells ( knew-rones ). Most are used to inform the neighbouring cells that the sending cell is just plain drunk. Some knew-rones are actually no-nuthin' lazy, drinkers and miscreants. You get some really big knew-rones that are so smart even I can't work out what they are on about. Really braney. I met one once and asked him/her what they were doing. It said that I couldn't possibly understand any answer it might give and so it wasn't going to even bother. Gosh that was a clever reply, wish I'd thought of that. Classy newrowtransmitters right then & there. You do get new knew-rones - they are called new-rones to avoid phonetic confusion - that turn up occasionally just to shake up the social scenes up there in yer head brane. They make new connections, that sort of fing. I put them in a new sub-urb near the main brain bendy bone, called NewRoan NewBone ( it's a bit like Milton Keynes - yes, that good - 'cos it's full of Ministrators ). Usually they put out neurotransmitters that tell the lazy ones to go and throw themselves under the bus.

As for :-8] then Bovine Interrupted Trough is perfect. That has the agro-nim BIT ( not to be confused with BT, mind you ). Leaps to mind really { One of my new-ish knew-rones thought that up. Just now. Wasn't that helpful ? }.

Cheers, Mike.

RE: You have an impressive

You have an impressive skill at randomising :) Daaaavid. Well done! I like it. In order to differentiate between any random and unrandomminged :)'s of my own, I'm thinking of trialling this -> :8] for awhile. Or perhaps this is better? -> :-8] ...? *give einsteinians time to consider*

It says interrupted cow at trough to me but I'm quite fond of cows so that's not a problem.

Quote:

Going through all the feedback without bending my mind TOO far, I wrote down the letters I was sure of. :)

H-P-O--SPHORIA

Then I looked :) at what was left.

ADYT :)


Well, yes that looks very promising indeed :-8] I especially like that you have one Y, David.

Quote:
I was fairly confident of where the Y went,

Oh good. Yes. I can see that *slow blink*

Was it at this point you lost confidence in the A? Or did you sit on it whilst...

Quote:
...playing :) with the other three to see where they would make phonetic sense.

...because I can see how it might have changed shape :-8]

Or is this all a tes:)t to see if I duplicate a gaffe I made at the alien jumbling place - where I once said a word proffered at me was correct when it wasn't? *disapproving sniff* Because I nearly did it again, except here this time...

Quote:

When I had something that seemed likely, I searched for it and came up with

HYPTODYSPHORIA - An odd sensation felt by certain people when handling peaches, velvet or other fuzzy surfaces.

Thus :) explaining the clue-ograph.


The definition indeed does. :-8]

Quote:

It is customary here, but not required, to wait for confirmation of correctness :) before posting the next word. However, I will be leaving work early (for an FNA of my thyroid, to make sure its nodules :) are nothing to worry about) and suspect Annie won't be back to issue such confirmation before I go, so here's a new word now.

AAMIINNOO

It was difficult to jumble it in any kind of rational way without putting any of the letters in the right places. I will not tell you - for now - whether I succeeded. :)

[edited to throw in a bunch of random :)s]

In view of thyroid having no A's, but indeed having a Y, I'm going to assume your upcoming test :/ may have impinged upon your thoughts a tad, David... and that when you wrote HYPTODYSPHORIA, you in fact meant to write HAPTODYSPHORIA. So I will go away and look at your jumbled word now, whilst extending my best wishes for anxiety-free nodules for you - which we can throw a party for later if you like? :-8]


AAARRRGGHH!!!

Yes, I meant haptodysphoria. I had that written down. Yes, I was in a hurry. I just forgot that the Y ended up not being where it seemed likely to go when I typed it in.

The good news is that the nodules appear to be benign, at least what they could get from them through my fat neck. I will now take them meekly into the corner of the thread and read what Mike said about amino acids.

YAY NODES!! :-8] Will they keep on eye on them, David, you know, to make sure?

@Mike:

Whatever you think you're doing during that leaping to mind thing... you're not *convert eyes to sharp pointy things* BT knew-rones are the equivalent of invasive knotweed y-e-e-e-s... and will gradually render all old-rones to gibbering ones...

*blink at einsteinians* so... good luck everyone! :-8]

I was going to say there *point up there* how will we know? but I decided not to. You're welcome, Mike :-8]

We aren't going to worry about them for the foreseeable future. I return to the otolaryngologist (that would have made a good jumble word) on the 6th to see what he thinks, but what he said before was that if they were benign he'd put me on a med to support my thyroid and it would cause them to shrink. That actually sounds good to me, since my thyroid levels have always run a tad low but not low enough to justify being supported in their own right.

If only I could be so blase about these silly words. I had haptodysphoria in my head even after I typed it wrong. If I had just typed what I was thinking and skipped the bloviational (bloviatory?) explanation of how I got there, everything would have been fine.

A pair of total nothings, although the first one has a group of four in the wrong place and a group of two that should be joined to the four to make six.

A four and a one, but nothing noteworthy in either.

Refer back to your hint on the last word about the round things.

To clarify, I'm not saying you have a group of four, just four total.

Specifically, what you said about Ms. Winfrey.

That phrase was chosen very carefully, for a specific implication.

I haven't checked to see how they stack up against all of your clues yet, but after establishing from an online dictionary that you did mean bottoms and not b**bs (which came a little after I stumbled into a very adult site that didn't make it very clear at all *propel HUGE eyes round thread*) I decided you were not referring to the M and might be thinking more in terms of the i and the a being at the end... which combined with the O's got me wondering what I wondered up there.

Awwwwwww :) don't worry! :) I nearly overlooked it, first by accident and then on purpose, but didn't. Anyway... I look on my own gaffes as punctuation... rather than anything more meaningful, and punctuation is one of those things that help make everything in between the squiggles make much more sense than they do without. If I'm thinking back correctly... you look on yours as brainf**ts I believe? which I'm sure I've heard say are better out than in?

:-8]

edit: well... oniomania fits your other clues better - so I looked it up to find it's an overwhelming urge to buy things, appranetly...

I left my notepad in my bag of stuff I carry to and from work for no good reason and I can't get it to make sure because when I get up from this chair, it will be to go to the euphemism and then to the other chair that is my bed. But yes, I'm pretty sure that is the word I had in mind.

Go ahead and post a new word. I'll be away from the computer for just about all of tomorrow, so maybe someone else will get it for once.
