I am currently writing an essay on Othello, and have exhausted the use of long words such as "irrepressible", "superficial", "omnipresent" and "archetypal".
So does anyone have any good long words? |

"Orthopeadic", "Resentful", "Qi" (not long but it rocks), "Uninhibited", "Jockstrap".

Already used resentful, not entirely sure where I could fit "jockstrap" into this particular piece, but I'll bear it in mind.
As for "stereotypical", I don't really like that, don't think it really means anything.

You could use it as in: "The main character got angry when his jockstrap bust" or summat.
Barbaric, ultimately, cumulonimbus, willysock, windsock, blasphermy, blasphermus.

Just a note for YY Admin, how in "The Big One" does my choice between two brands of condoms offend enough to be removed whereas the above seems to be fair game "for the intended age group"
