ive always wanted to defenestrate a chair out of a window.

reminds me of omerta. which is a code of silence. said to come from the latin humilitas meaning humility. through sicily it became umirtà and then omertà by italian dialect.

thought you might like to know ;)

Like it! Must find a way of using that word.....

Meanwhile, may I humbly offer you a word that I adore?

Rapscallion - sounds so antiquated doesn't it? It needs exercising - it's a word that should get out more...
