    Tired of vocab podcasts that sound like a dictionary having a breakdown? We bring words to life with stories, scripts, and absurd tangents—because building your vocab shouldn’t be a snooze-fest." Dentist: Mr. Wimbley, it's been a while. How are you doing? Wimbley: Oh, I'm on the up and up. How are you Dr. Wellings? Dentist: Good, good. Kathy tells me you have a vexatious abscess on your 2nd bicuspid. - Kathy, number 20 please. Wimbley: Is a vexatious abscess worse than a periapical tooth abscess? Dentist: Haha. No, no. Just adding colorful context to an overwhelminly redundant job. The periapical tooth abscess is because you don't visit me often enough. It being vexatious is just free marketing for my staff. Haha.

Guy: I think I just gave up my in-flight snack, and the least you could do is provide a courtesy laugh? Girl: Well, it was funny. Guy: Now's the part where we introduce ourselves, right? Girl: And then talk about our jobs, where we're from, talk about how annoying travel is, especially NY. Then you call me querulous, I call you a nit-whit, we laugh and then make-out. Guy: Wow, fast talker, fast mover. It's like you know what every guy wants.
