rugose:
1 : full of wrinkles
2 : having the veinlets sunken and the spaces between elevated
how to use in casual conversation:
"so this old man on the bus...he starts yelling something about a 'jig-a-boo in the white house' and then pulls his pants down and yells that he's staging a 'tea-bagging-protest'. as the cops pulled his dementia addled ass away, they left his rugose earl-grey-sack flailing in the wind for all to see."
not to be confused with:
lugosi
how it makes me feel:
do you remember that one adam sandler movie? not the one where he was beat up bob barker, or the one where he beat up the bathroom stall. big daddy? was that it? the one where he temporarily raised jon stewart's illegitimate kid... anyways, you know that scene where his girlfriend tells him she's dumping him for that old dude and he says something about her "having his wrinkly old nut-sack knocking up against for the rest of her life" or something like that. it made me think of that. it also made me think of my grandma. not the nut sack knocking part, but the wrinkly part. grandma smoked. a lot. she was also addicted to bingo for a while. everything she had contained cigarette burn holes. it's my main motivation for wanting to quit. (note i said wanting to, not trying to...big difference). this isn't really going anywhere.

Y'know what would be nice? If you included the pronunciation of these words. 'Cause we still got to look 'em up ourselves if we want to sprinkle 'em into everyday conversation. That extra click could be the one that sends us into RSI territory, and should be avoided.
