Words to Know


Here's a list via Deadspin of 100 words any who's graduated high school should be familiar enough with to use properly in a sentence. All i can say is wow. I consider myself to be at least fairly well read and with a decent vocabulary and I only even recognize 70 of the words and could probably only properly use somewhere around 60 of them in a sentence. Have I just become dumber or have high schools just increased their education levels 10 fold since I graduated way back when? I'm not sure what precipitated this change, but I feel fairly lugubrious about it. (Booyah, there's two in one sentence, but I had to use google to figure out what one of them meant so that kind of cheapens the victory I guess...)
