the favorite word competition goes on

Over at Education Action, "serendipity" is winning ("serendipitous" is better, but neither should be winning), someone misspelled "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" (how hard is that, honestly?) and I have been moved to concede "archipelago" may indeed be a superior word to "indubitably." Sad no one's picked "potato." You can't say "potato" without feeling better.

People, please, go put something. America is insanely under-represented... "Taqueria" is also a good word... The lack of words starting with "v" is a travesty... "Wallaby" should be in there, too.

In summing up, I wish I had some kind of affirmative message to leave you with. I don't. Would you take two negative messages?
