An emordnilap is a word that when read in the opposite direction doesn't make the same word...like a palindrome, but a different word:

Desserts - Stressed.

Which is a shame. Because Palindrome would be lovelier if it was palindromic.

In other news:

Saipuakivvikaupias is the longest palindromic one word.

Its an Icelandic word which means:

A man who sells caustic soda to the soap industry.

I think.

I have to admit, I was only going for the failed palendrome part with Bolton http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Notlob

But didn't deebeedoobee get the concept spot on? Even doing emordnilapic sentences.

If you want to be confused........................

AUTOLOGY & HETEROLOGY
An autological word is word that describes itself. So short is short. Common isn’t rare. Unhyphenated doesn’t have a hyphen. Polysyllabic has more than one syllable. Pronounceable is perfectly pronounceable. And sesquipedalian is unquestionably sesquipedalian. The opposite is a heterological word. So rare isn’t rare. Long isn’t long (in fact it’s shorter than short). Hyphenated is unhyphenated. Symmetrical is asymmetrical. Monosyllabic is polysyllabic. And there’s nothing at all wrong with misspelled.

Eek worried now, don't kink I am intelligent enough for NFR NFC, might need to find another thread to play in.

Matty that picture is wrong on so many counts.

I have just noticed nearly on the 2000 posts, how on earth did that happen. That means this is my Prince post.

    • Interesting to read. It's mostly why we stopped going a few years back even though it's the nearest big festival to home. The post-exams timing and location makes it a rites of passage first festival for people in a big area. Understandably that leads to a bit of giddiness. Think lineup would need to be a lot more my cup of tea to be enticed back. Friends who are there are having a good time tho and no rain is a good thing for up there.
    • I honestly didn't know it had, I still thought it was where the view overlooked the lake and view.   I think my decision not to attend this year at least was justified. Biffy was the big draw but after Finsbury I knew they wouldn't play what I want to hear again and well work also got in the way. Believed interesting to hear if Libertines were any good as they were also a pull but Sunday did nothing for me really with all my acts on Friday and Saturday.
