Daily dose of vocabulary - use it to impress your mother, father, teacher, professor, mentor, co-worker, boss...
W.O.D.: Fanfaronade - 1. Swaggering; empty boasting; blustering manner or behavior; ostentatious display; 2. Fanfare.
Example: This blog attracts such a fanfaronade that the writers have to drink massive amounts of coffee to keep up with its readers (over 1000 hits since 3/10! THANK YOU READERS!!!).
Q.O.D.: "He’s always asking: ‘Is that new? I haven’t seen that before.’ It’s like, 'Why don’t you mind your own business? Solve world hunger. Get out of my closet.'" - Michelle Obama via NYT
