Everyone's Words

PHASE TWO has started, so start writing!

In PHASE ONE, people were invited to choose words and post them in comments. Each person was allowed more than one word, but had to wait 24 hours between each one (i.e. one word per person per day). I reserved the right to disqualify words. Phase One ended when the total number of characters in the words submitted, plus one space per word, reached 256.

The wordlist is:

clitic schism pyrrhic surprise metonymic synecdoche simplicity sentimental fundamental strategical reinactment cheesegrater conversation clairvoyance uncopyrightable pseudopseudohypo(para)thyroidism antidisestablishmentarianism supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

PHASE TWO:

Write a story using as many of these words as you can. Try to make sense, at least in a humorously nonsensical kind of way. I’ll be flexible when balancing words used against story sense, so don’t panic if you can’t use all of them. Also, things like turning schism into schisms won’t matter much.
