Exam Words

Brad at [Blog Goes Here] likes to have exam fun and throw in funky words in his answers. Guess what? I do too! [Yeah, big surprise people.]

I drive my friends crazy soliciting words for inclusion in my tests. As Brad says, if you're not done yet, there's always time to play this ever-fun game!

p.s. Defenestration is so over done. Pick something unusual.

Comments

Pokey. As in either, "he was sentenced to 5 years in the pokey," or "the evolution of commerce clause jurispridence proceeded pokily until 1871." I know the register isn't quite right, but I really, really want to do it!

I put "badonkadonk" in one of my 1L exams and got someone to buy me two drinks. I think it might have hurt my grade though.
