gnostic3's definitions

anastoplast

n. A flap of fat used to cover up an unsightly or potentially leaky surgical connection of two pieces of intestine.

..........................................................

That, my friend, is a poor piece of surgical workmanship. Did you train in Australia by any chance?

No worries mate! We'll flap over it with a bit of an anastoplast and leave the resi to close whilst you and I woggle down to the pizzeria to watch the robotic cat waitress put some woolies out of work.

wordodex

n. The part of the human brain responsible for storage and, more importantly, retrieval of the words learned over the course of a lifetime.

..............................

Wordodex failures, in which the correct or perfect word (le mot juste ou parfait), which may have spent years collecting dust in the less-travelled areas of a surgeon's cerebral cortex, is badly routed and ends up dangling uselessly at the tip of his tongue, can be both annihilatory and devastative.
