I'm bored...i do strange things when i'm bored. Today the strange thing i choose to do is start a pointless contest...you will win nothing but the fact that you are also strange enough to think of stuff like this... :rolleyes:

There will be two winners...and the contest will last for 1 week (contest will be over at midnight 17 Dec (EST).

1st contest...who can think of the longest word...it can be a real word, or a fake word out of a book/movie, but can't be a word you made up. Proof that it fits these requirements is required and also give the meaning of the word.

2nd contest...the strangest/weirdest/most interesting word...you don't have to put a reason, but you can if you want...a vote will be held by the moderators for the winner of this one...

Winners will be announced on 18 Dec.
