Wonky
« on: June 23, 2006, 10:38:05 PM »
"We've moved - there might be slight wonkiness"

I just have to post to say that "wonky" is one of our favorite family words.  It was much used last weekend when hubby and I tiled our shower, and had a hell of a time keeping all the lines straight.

Could it be that this word comes from Willy Wonka????

I was just thinking of posting a comment about the "wonkiness" post too!  I use that word every so often and soem people think it's odd- I'm glad to see other people using it!  (Without, of course, thinking they're wonky.)
it is well known that PMS Elle is evil.
I think you'd fit in a 12" or at least a 16" firework mortar
You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.

nah - it was around before willy wonka, i reckon - my family used it when i was a kid, and, as it was first published in the states in 1964 (and my family wouldn't have read it), i doubt that's it's provenance.

Sounds deliciously tempting, Mr Wonka. Does it melt in your mouth?

Wonky is a philosophical term used to describe the phenomenon wherein every thread swiftly and spontaneously veers towards the gutter.
'When the world is run according to my standards, everyone will be a happier person and the general standard of health will exceed the average' - Charlie Chaplin
