<p>Hoo boy... silly Dartmouth freshmen :).</p>

<p>PS- 500 posts, woohoo!</p>

<p>haha...they printed his name...that would be soooooo embarrasing</p>

<p>A guy named Thaddeus seems like the type of guy to jump out of windows.</p>

<p>Ha ha, his facebook picture is him shooting a gun. I actually know the guy.....ha ha. I'll have to ask him about this.</p>

<p>And really, defenestration? defenestrated? The D was obviously just taking an opportunity to use a fancy word, my god. I have never heard anyone say someone "defenestrated." I could figure out what the word meant by breaking it down of course...but for god's sake....this is just too much.</p>

<p>I nominate "defenestrate" as the most useless word in the English language.</p>

<p>its actually from teh defenestration of Prague where a bunch of church officials got thrown out of a window of a building way back when and they landed on some manure. The church says it was divine intervention that they survived while the other side claims that they landed on shiet so they are shiet...</p>

<p>haha, wow, my History teacher mother told me about that a while back when she taught me the word... I didn;t know if she was serious or not, and msot people I tell don't believe me,lol! Thanks for confirming my belief! </p>

<p>yeah, like "fenster" from German, meaning window, lol, crazy kids!</p>

<p>Quick, call the college board so they can put it on the verbal section.</p>

<p>Yeah I know the guy too...must have gotten really f'in drunk.</p>

<p>lol, i first heard the word in 7th grade social studies, when we were having a discussion with the theme, "I can't believe there's actually a WORD for this." we then walked around for weeks, threatening people with defenstration when they got on our nerves, haha</p>
