| That's good, isn't it?
How is this good?
| No, but I could go for Nephelococcygia Gnus.
Pronunciation: [ne-fê-lê-kê-'si-jee-yê ]
Definition 1: (Literally, "Cloudcuckoosville") Interpreting the shapes of
clouds.
Definition 2: La-la land, a dream land cut off from reality.
The adjective would be "nephelococcygic," as in "Bertie is suffering
nephelococcygic delusions."
Sounds good.
