It would appear that I am 'stoned' (which explains a lot).

Arugula
The word was first used in 1960, and Merriam-Webster defines it as "a yellowish-flowered Mediterranean herb of the mustard family cultivated for its foliage which is used especially in salads."

Never heard of it.

Well I have heard of that, thanks  :D. Had some earlier.
In future if I am explaining something I'll say"It's not arugula science".

I think Prezzo or someone used to do a pasta arugula which was quite passable.

I came across this on Faceache, earlier tonight. Mine was "sitcom".
I came to realise that every time we recognise something human in creatures, we are also recognising something creaturely in ourselves. That is central to the rejection of human supremacism as the pernicious doctrine it is.

It involves clicking on the decade, and then the year, but they are part of a large design, not simple text. You could, if willing, divulge your birth year on the thread or in a pm to someone, and let them do it for you, perhaps.

"You Got: Bonk
The word was first used in 1936, and Merriam-Webster defines it as 'to experience sudden, severe fatigue during strenuous activity.'"
