Ostrobogulous, Oneirodynia, Acephalia, Slantingdicular, and Conglobate

My ostrobogulous oneirodynia last night was all about acephalia. I saw my head roll down a slantingdicular street and conglobate into a pumpkin.

Read all about them:

ostrobogulous = weird or bizarre (TWITO, page 105)
oneirodynia = sleep disturbed by nightmares
acephalia = the absence of a head (page 10)
slantingdicular = at a slanting angle
conglobate = to form into a ball (page 33)

Nephelococcygia, Benthos, Stultiloquence, Ostrobogulous, and Ishkabibble

"Stop this nepheloccoccygia!" Terrence said, interrupting my reverie on the chaise lounge. "It's your turn to clean the benthos of this filthy swimmming pool."

"That's just stultiloquence!" I retorted. "It's just a swimming pool, not Lake Erie. And you cleaned it just last week. Your ostrobogulous obsession with the insignificant flotsam on the bottom is just pure ishkabibble!"

Read all about them:

nephelococcygia = cloud gazing (TWITO, page 95)
benthos = the bottom of an ocean, lake, or sea (page 20)
stultiloquence = foolish talk or babble (page 141)
ostrobogulous = weird or bizarre (page 105)
ishkabibble = nonsense (page 74)
