Have you ever used the word "abominable" in a serious context and NOT to describe a snowman?

1. I can't recall any such circumstances, but I do lean towards the verbose.
So I'm sure I have at least once.

2. Although the Snowman truly owns the word
you can always count upon me to use it in relation to abdominals.

6. I used it a lot from 2001-2008 to describe the policies and actions of the Rethuglican Party.
Actually, I think I used "abomination" more often though to refer to BushCo.

8. Not quite. Last year someone posted a morphed Hillary-Barack photo
on DU and asked if it was funny. I said I thought it could be considered either Hillaryous or Obamanible. :+

9. Yes. Someone Once Cried Out, "That Cow Just Ate A Bunch of Dynamite!"
To which I replied, "That's a bomb in a bull".

11. When it exploded, it took out three young cows standing nearby, too
It meant death for heifer and heifer and heifer.


(Your joke was better, I admit.)

Do not change channels. Or go anywhere. Just sit tight. I'll be back. Soonish.

16. No, it just doesn't roll off of the tongue. It takes too much
effort to pronounce it correctly. Yeah, that's lazy.
