jabberwocky

adj. 1. like the Jabberwock. 2. ridiculous, impossible, or nonsensical; quixotic.

Unfortunately, Tim Burton's 2010 film "Alice in Wonderland" has perpetuated the misconception that "jabberwocky" is a noun. It is not. The poem exclusively refers to the creature as the "Jabberwock".

Christopher Lee, the actor who plays the Jabberwock in Tim Burton's film, is somewhat jabberwocky in appearance himself, if you ask me.

kith

n. all the people you both know and like who are not your relatives or family. Somewhat synonymous with "friends", but used more generally. There are probably people in your work place or school or neighborhood who are not exactly friends, but they are kith.

I aspire to have a lot of kith but only a few close friends.
