I found a new word today that struck me as ironic. Fustian. It means “pompous or pretentious language.” The irony lies in that the average English speaker doesn’t use the word ‘fustian’, and so the word best describes itself. A person would be creating fustian in using the word ‘fustian’. That’s an excellent idea that I fully support.

Mr. Miyagi didn’t really teach Daniel-san Karate – It was actually Snap-Fu.
