Nincompoop
Nincompoop.. such a funny sounding word.
Also.. I TOLD you I was a nincompoop in the video… the term Nicodemite is from the 16th century and refers to a person resembling Nicodemus.. who obviously lived many years before.

Marina, interesting. Where did the phrase “poop deck” come from I wonder?
Other words for nincompoop?
How about : boob, ass, fool, moron, idiot, imbecile, ninnyhammer, dotard, retard, dullard. Is that enough, dear teacher?
Hello my dear teacher. I am brand new to the site, and look forward to many great lessons in the future! smart IS sexy after all.
Pssst! Wanna buy a hall pass?
Just kidding

Marina et al.:
I wonder (In that picture w/ her friends), if Marina was you doing the Batman dance?!?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1kR5eiFNNy0&feature=related
that’d be the ketchup song. nothing to do w/ batman.
can see the dance better in this version.
Seeing the ketchup dance makes me want to get some french fries!!
On the other hand, though, I didn’t see any evidence of Marina doing that in the picture. You see, where she has the pink top and either a black skirt or slacks her forefinger and middle finger were positioned in a “V” near her eyes. It looked almost as if she were sweeping hair out of her eye with the “V”, or the peace sign, just as Batman does in his dance from the first post.
However, the ketchup dance is different…VERY catchy and fun, but different
They first do some scissors-like motion with both hands in front of their body, followed by shaking their fists at the shoulders (as if they were shaking bottles of ketchup), followed lastly by putting one hand on the forehead and the other behind the shoulders as their knees knock together. I have no doubt that Marina would choose to do the much more stylish ketchup dance, yet there’s no movement with the “V” fingers around the eyes characteristic of the cheesy Batman dance
how about this?
PERFECT!!!
It’s in way way better taste than the Batman AND it shows the “flying V” maneuver
The true etymology is very simple. Nincom comes from “no income,” with the first and last letters dropped. Poop means you don’t get paid sh!t. So a nincompoop is someone who earns little or no money.
Any simpleton can tell you that the first letter of the word “no” is o.
Your Faux Frenchman here would like to point out that nicodème is pronounced nee-koh-dehm. The final “e” in nicodème is silent. I wonder if dotcompoop is a word? It would describe any web site put on the web by a nincompoop.
I requested some information on this many weeks ago and have not heard any reply. The word is “Charlie horse”. A very painful condition so way such a funny sounding word. I hope you don’t suffer from them while researching its origin.

tricky, oh I gotta go
Maroon, doofus (I forget how its spelled), and….. is stool pigeon one? I don’t know why that popped in my head, but I forget what it means. I’m blanked out at the moment.
Pig-in-a-Poke ~ nincompoop This is a good definition for me. My surname is German, as is poep. Thank you Dear Teacher.
Correction: as poep is a derogatory Dutch term for a German. Hmm, I wonder why the Dutch would say anything bad towards Germans. I heard the way you can tell a German is because you can’t tell him anything.
hi, could you please find out about the word… “Homie”?
Hi, What is the origin of the word odometer.
Thank you
Best you got? Duh
Additional homework: heard this one last night at
work Mooncalf
W.C Fields uses the term in “The Bank Dick”. He’s reasoning with his future son-in-law, trying to get him to steal from the bank. From memory the dialog went thusly, “You don’t want to be a mooncalf, do you? A fuddyduddy?”. “No.”. “Of course, not.”. Which brings up yet another word for your HotForWords sexpot, Marina, to investigate: Dick, as in detective.
Somebory could tell me be best translation to Spanish of the word nincompoop? Perhaps it is something like tonto, idiota….(I don’t know)
Is that why Lone Ranger’s partner was called “Tonto”?
- some kind of “amusing” slur foisted upon his poor assistant for not being the requisite race deserving of respect?
that bastard!! – {spits on Lone Ranger and kicks him in the nuts}
I get the end now.

Marina was practicing posing for a passport photo.
(Would you believe updating her KGB credentials?)
(P.S. for Marina’s countdown, we used to use the term “10 and a wake-up” until…)
I have always wondered why the term “I’m in stitches” means that somebody has made you laugh and I was wondering maybe you could investigate where it came from?
yes .. that’s right .. laugh at someone recovering from serious surgery.
You should be ashamed!
