This past apanthropic

1
year, as we've all latibulated
2
alexithymically,
3
your phrasemonger
4
included, eisegetically
5
perusing
6
ultracrepidarian,
7
sialoquent
8
invective on that peristeronic
9
social medium, we've all waxed a bit halophilic
10
ourselves. Let us heave our bumbershoots,
11
embrace the drisk
12
as pluviophiles,
13
mesophiles,
14
agelasts,
15
and amatorculists!
16
Let our ylem
17
be more than anatiferous
18
cacklefarts
19
—give us updog
20
for our henways!
21
Let us not remord
22
our nudiustertian
23
pentheraphobia
24
and esquivalience!
25
Let us instead take Lillian Mountweazel
26
to Agloe, New York
27
and we'll all go out for nihilartikels!
28
Xertz
29
your jentacular
30
tittynopes!
31
Mabble
32
your struthiousness
33
and velleity!
34
Hent
35
that acnestis
36
with your hallux,
37
wave to Ucalegon,
38
and let's off!

Respair! Respair! Happy new year!
