Those make my feet oddly uncomfortable. My sister however, loves them. 

There are running shoes like this too. Of course I tried them out.  🥴 No go... just weird. People like them tho.

susurrous Audio pronunciation

 
adjective | soo-SUR-us  
 
Definition
 
:
full of whispering sounds

 

 

Susurrous derives from the Latin noun susurrus, meaning "a hum" or "a whisper," and may be a distant relative of swarm (think of the collective hum of a beehive). Susurrus is itself an English noun with the meaning "a whispering or rustling sound" (Stephen King provides us with the example of "a violent susurrus of air"). Both the noun and the adjective (note that the two are spelled differently) are products of the 19th century, but they were preceded by the noun susurration, which in the 15th century originally meant "malicious whispering or rumor." Today susurrous is used to describe any kind of sound that resembles a whisper: a light breeze through a tree, perhaps, or the murmurs of intrigued theatergoers.

Good day, everyone

Good Morning, Bro.

I hope today is a great day for you.

Stay Warm.

 

I'm about to lay down and try to take a nap. Almost fell asleep on the couch.

 

There's a story on GA I've been reading. Ongoing and up to chapter four. Haven't had the time to read chapter 4 yet. Reason being each chapter has been 18,000 to 27,000 words. EACH chapter is that long. I don't think any of the stories I've done have even hit 27,000 words for the whole work!

Love when a word sounds like it’s meaning.

If I had ever heard this, I've forgotten.  Thanks for another interesting word. 

An interesting challenge might be to write one story using all of the words that you've presented on The Drop In Centre over, say, four months or so.

Edit:  As @Defiance19 pointed out, that's a lot of words.  Perhaps since the new chat thread was started.

It’s funny the way stuff creeps up on you.. The midday siren went off at the firehouse, and I missed Bella howling along with it.  For a few seconds I was overwhelmed with the sads. I miss my girl. 🐕

Yeah, I guess that would be a few too many.  The math side of my brain was still asleep.  How about since the new chat thread was started.
