    Don't recite a poem; make love to it: gently ictuate its stresses; caress its assonance and rhyme; fold your tongue around its mysteries.

    "Ictuate" sounds like it belongs with that other word, spag-whatnot. You know, the one about frog-volleying.

    Of course if one were South African, the definition for "Ictuate" would be perfectly iccurate.

    Let me stress that the definition of "ictuate" is wrong again. Artwiculate needs to actuate some quality controls.

    The artwiculate definition is fake - it's the one for Bakelite. "Bajulate" means "to bear a heavy burden". Nothing to do with resin at all.

    Senescence is when cells cease to divide by mitosis because of short of telomeres or excessive DNA damage, and you no longer give a fuck.
