scrabble word

An impressively obscure and scholarly-sounding word, which might earn high points in a game of Scrabble, but is inappropriate in almost any natural discussion. Typical in Internet comment sections, typed by someone with an English or Liberal Arts degree, or no degree at all.
"Well TonystarkMCU94, 'jejune' and 'profligacy' are some nice scrabble words, but nothing in you post mentions anything relevant to the topic about branches of government or the ongoing budget crisis. Try reading a book, not a thesaurus"

word therapy

Healing oneself by working with words and letting them order and clarify the way one feels, thinks, and acts.
After a major television network offered to interview me, but then cancel the interview, that series of events first raised but then lowered my self-concept, confused me, made me feel powerless—even helpless, but not hopeless.

Soon after I started to edit the index of a book I'm writing, I began to feel increasingly better.

Working with words balanced my emotions and allowed me to feel, think, and act correctly again. I call that word therapy.
