COUNTERCOUNTERMEASURES just isn't happening for me, I'm afraid.Istenem wrote:good skills Bob, QM will be pleased.
didn't fancy going for the longest word record?
The -ALIZATION suffix is ripe for mining, though - passed up FEUDALIZATIONS today before setting up (and subsequently stuffing up*) IMMOBILIZATIONS instead.
QUAZZIER also got an airing.

This weekend I went SHUTTLECOCKING around a few pubs with Bob. We could have gone INTERCONTINENTAL but with all the stories and COUNTERACCUSATIONS going around we thought it safer to stay home. Anyone else feel the world's governments' methods against terrorist organisations, or COUNTERTERRORISMS as it were, just aren't good enough? Originally I thought it was a QUINTESSENTIALLY British problem, but it looks to be one of the QUIZZICALITIES of the world.
This weekend I took BAB, a poor man's BOB around the pubs. Firstly a black CAT crossed our paths as we GOT on the BUS. That spells good LUCK for our voyage, no TRIP around the west END would be useless with BAB in TOW. Soon things were looking UP (are you even allowed two letter words?) as BAB typed in a VERY long word and that £1 crept a minuscule, no wait, TINY amount towards our accomplishment, sorry GOAL. However we were doomed, it seemed FATE was not on our side until BAB threw a hissy FIT and said oh FIDDLESTICKS AND ANTIDEASTABLISHMENTARIANISM TO ALL OF THIS!
We had trounced the territory from Oxford Street to Shaftesbury Avenue and we headed off to The Strand to cause further NUISANCINTISSITATONALATUDES to fellow Word Soupers.

ANTI-DISESTABLISHMENTARIANISM is a hyphenated word and so not allowable. I know this because we were refused it in an episode of Masterteams in the 80's. Went off Angela Rippon from that day. We had to make do with floccinaucinihilipilification.JG wrote:This weekend I took BAB, a poor man's BOB around the pubs. Firstly a black CAT crossed our paths as we GOT on the BUS.
