I stumbled across this new (to me) word, so I thought I'd share:
Ineffable: incapable of being expressed or described in words; inexpressible: ineffable joy.
At first blush I thought, what a totally cool new word. I'm going to keep that one in my back pocket for future reference. But now, after a bit of thought, I have realized this word is irony incarnate; it's a word used to describe the undescribable.
Isn't that great? Try and use it in a sentence today.

I want to have a shirt that says, "Ineffable is irony incarnate."
And when people ask what it means I'll say, "It's ineffable."
Yes!! It's a billion dollar idea - I love it!!
Love the word. I'm curious, who used it first? You or Hooper. He sent it in an e-mail and you posted it on your blog.
D
I did, silly - he's responding to the "try and use it in a sentence today" challenge, savvy?
Good to know that the egg came first.
