fungible: /fuhn-juh-buhl/
(esp. of goods) being of such nature or kind as to be freely exchangeable or replaceable, in whole or in part, for another of like nature or kind.
how to use in casual conversation:
"in this particular circumstance the term 'spliff' is wholly fungible with the word 'joint'."
"i feel like you consider me to be fungible with any other tall, skinny dude with a beard."
not be confused with:
fugacious
how it makes me feel:
it's a good word and a good WOTD. it's a good word because it has 'fun' in it, and as i have previously discussed any word with 'fun-' in it, is by it's very nature....fun. i don't make the rules. just the way it goes sometimes. it's a good word of the day because, well it has 'fun-' in it and it's sort of obscure. have you ever heard it before? actually, you might be smarter than (or at least have a better memory than) me so don't answer that question. but it's also been one f'ing hell of a monday, the kind on which you would have spent the first three hours of the day combing craigslist and/or monster trying to find a new job had you not been so damn busy because f' me if this place isn't stupid and then of course there's the background radiation that comes along with remembering your previous november traumas and before you know what's what you have your ipod turned up to full blast and can't hear anything that anyone around you is saying and they've figured out that you don't really want to be bothered and you can caulk it up 'a case of the mondays' if you really need to but who gives a crap what any of these people think anyways because after being a year and a half of being a temp it's pretty damn clear to everyone involved what your level of commitment and caring is to the point that no one seems shocked or asks questions when they walk past your desk and find you have the biotech/science jobs section open on your antiquated browser. i always say "i don't actually work here" and it is in fact kinda true.
monday can bite me. especially this particular monday.
