I always think "melanin" when I read "melatonin"; so I think, "why would I want to ingest the chemical that gives eyes and skin color?"
true, we can buy melatonin, but we can't call it a chemist's--a word I like for its test-tubeyness. And while "pharmacoepia" is a great word, "pharmacy" bites.
Keggers, are you asking what's so great about pharmacoepia? It's great because it makes me think of a cornucoepia of drugs! Which is just kind of funny.
Nuh-uh, Keggers. That Wonka dude's one evil piece of crap. See that river the fat German kid falls into? Oompah Loompah colonic irrigation room just next door.
Doesn't "plinth" somehow, as a word, somehow evoke the feeling of a speech impediment? (Speaking as someone who had a lisp, as a child, and still do, when drunk, e.g.).
