That’s about right. Certainly some obscure ones.

I was blessed and cursed, at the same time, with a good memory for most things. I was surprised to learn (because of it) that I recognized most of these. They mostly flow from old Great Britain English. The few I haven't heard are pretty funny!

I got 14. I particularly love using kerfuffle. Some of these I learned from Moira Rose's character on Schitt's Creek (which is fantastic). "The room is bombulating with excitement...."

Well I could only relate to 4. I guess my English is not that good.

I am discombobulated to realize that I am a bit of an ultracrepidarian. I did manage 12 of these though, which is IMHO a reflection of my Grade 7 Attendance Certificate.....which I am proud of obviously, but had I only known at the time I would have stayed another year and been certified as an academic zeuzizenzizenzic.

Did you know that showing someone how to throw something (or someone) out a window is a defenestration demonstration?

@paul-rouffa And if you do that when the window is closed you create a defenestration demonstration expensification. George Bush Jr. said this is a fact....and he would know!

You might bumfuzzle someone or cause a hullabaloo if you layed one of these down playing Scabble. If you don’t get defenestrated, you may have to skedaddle.. 🥴
