Master_Jedi , our rising dictionary star regretably, and quite by accident, falls face first in the mud with his swine reference since the judge is a bacon lover. :( No, you couldn't have known, the Latvians never mention that kind of thing, but nevertheless, oh the poor pigs...), and also for expecting the judge to actually go back and "refer"...like there is a farking index? Fark that, you lose with:

And our WINNER also entertained but won out since it allowed me to say that I hope our good friend Daverbee does Not experience a sense of vicegerence upon finding his name at the bottom of this list (by pulling another absent spell). Yes Daver finds himself head once again of a pack of mostly good efforts (dinz...pfft :rolleyes: ) from disapointed dictionarians this time around. Using the judge's name within Daverbee's definition did Not influence this judge, but it didn't hurt either ;).

G' bless you!

hachure n.

A snorkel that fits over the nostrils only and is flat in profile, the twin tubes running behind the ears and exiting behind the head.
Originally developed during WWII by German minge scientists in preparation for the invasion of Southern England. Each stormtrooper was to be issued with one for the secret mission of enabling them to perform cunnilingus for unlimited periods, thus undermining the Allied forces efforts via the female population. German soldiers trained for hours in secret tongue bathing laboratories in the Ruhr valley near the town of Pistenflapz, and achieved extended box lunches that lasted a whole afternoon.
As fate would have it, the only hachures were issued to a crack team from the 5th Sturmbahnfuhrer Klitmunchen Y Brigade, and records show that they in fact went missing, only to be found after the war locked in Mrs Goebbels back bedroom.

Hachure - Pronunciation (Ha-chew-ray)

A relatively unknown branch of yoga practiced by the elusive Hachurian monks who are rumoured to reside in a tiny principality called Hachu, high up in the Himalayas. Hachure is believed to bestow the practitioner with the magical ability to read minds, levitate and see through walls, although this is still unproven as an authentic Hachurian monk is yet to be captured alive for clinical trials.
