The only one that confuses me is "Pyroclastic"! According to the dictionary, pyroclastic means "composed chiefly of fragments of volcanic origin, as agglomerate, tuff, and certain other rocks; volcaniclastic."
ReplyDeleteThat seems pretty innocuous to me!
That is indeed bizarre... maybe they know something google doesn't know..?:)
ReplyDeletePORNOCLASTIC.
ReplyDeleteI don't think that's a word known to man...
ReplyDeleteSez you! Google begs to differ:
ReplyDeleteResults 1 - 8 of 8 for pornoclastic
