When I joined Facebook fifteen years ago the first thing I was involved in was a group called The Offical 100 Best Words In The English Language Ever. It was for a short time a beautiful and bonding group. Anyway, lovely to see it again and let’s hope it works the same again. My submission is desuetude.

@scottbarolo Despite my efforts, after the final list was published it did fall into … desuetude. It now has six members! I remain so I can find it when the subject arises.
