Word of the day is a favourite for this time of year. To be ‘crambazzled’, in old Yorkshire dialect, is to be prematurely aged by excess drinking or partying.

Look. If you’re pasty white like me, the trick is to hang out in a lot of dark nightclubs, and never let the sun touch your face. Otherwise wear giant hats and be gothy as per.
Is there a word that describes a word like this that is delightful that you know you’ll never remember. That word should also be delightful and unretainable.
I’m from Yorkshire but live in Australia and one of my great uncle’s drank a lot. He got thrown out of the pub for being drunk and after hitting another man. I never heard that word used in reference to him.
“Crambazzled” love it! Need more of this very specific and colorful adjectives in our lexicon. Here it goes;
Steve Bannon is crambazzled and a coprolite criminal who hopefully convicted in February will go to Sing Sing (State Pen.) for 10-20 years.
my wife came up with a word today grapped , she meant gripped , i said it was not a word but apparently it is , and the meaning is a bit dark . ( FROM THE URBAN DICTIONARY}
For some reason, yesterday the word 'coridor' stopped making any sense to me. I suspect there's a word for something you've said your entire life suddenly sounding really odd.
