Obscure Words of the Day

Found these words in Life of Pi a few days back. It's amazing how you can get so old and yet have completely alien words appear before your eyes.

Ineluctable: not to be avoided or escaped; inevitable.

And something way cooler...

Onanism: 1. Masturbation. 2. Coitus interruptus.

And from that, we get onanist, which also means "masturbator".

Masturbator sounds like a machine, which I think is pretty sweet.

I know, this is a pretty lame post. I'm sorry. I can't be cool all the time. Especially not when I'm waiting for my auditionee to get his lines ready so I can put him on tape.
