    I prefer onomatopoeia, myself, seeing as "onnomottoppeeia" doesn't show up on Dictionary.com or Wikipedia, or Google.

    But hey, I guess "fifteen letters" sounds more impressive than "twelve" or "a dozen", right?

    In which case, maybe they could have used something like "uncopyrightable", though I suppose it seems a bit mundane compared unadulterated Greek.

    Perhaps "verisimilitudes"?

    Are you suggesting that onnomottoppeeia itself is onomatopoetic?

    I was on the committee that came up with it, we were told it was a terrible name

    it probably was.

    But then, my only job on the newspaper was to edit and have a weekly page I was given to write about pretty much anything.

    I had a friend who wrote music reviews for the school newspaper.

    One time he reviewed a new Incubus album and the last paragraph was completely different from the rest of the review, and I asked him what was up with that.

    Apparently they added that last paragraph without him knowing! Turns out the lead editor didn't want any negative reviews of things in the paper.

    I was promised a spot to do some music reviews, but I only got 1 little spot in that section due to overwhelming amounts of students submitting reviews to us.

    So I did Boards of Canada's Geogaddi, amid borderline coherant reviews of "my chemical romance".

    I have a pretty funny story from doing work on that paper though.

    A lot of people I knew in high school liked them

    To be fair, when some of the music freaks got their reviews approved, there were some cool bands that started making the rounds in the school

    It looks more like turquoise to me. Also the two colours on the bottom are probably just the colours of the can itself, not the drink. I'm hoping this is the case anyway.

    Also, I cling to the hope that Tycho spelled it like that in the script, and Gabe never checked it.

    You will be allotted additional letters when you have proven your ability to generate words with those you have been given. Your current letters are X, G, V, and I. When you have constructed 3 or more words you may submit an application for additional letter funding at the Bureau of Literary Development.
