Word of the day: Nefarious
What does nefarious mean? Such a strange word bursts forth from the
recesses of the mind. Reminds me of Serpent of Slytherin in Harry Porter
and the Chambers of Secret. I don't even wanna google it, and indulge in
the indulgence of creating and living in thoughts, isolated from
reality. Delusion!? I say it's deliberate, with any reference to reality
merely coincidental and implying that I sense more than I know.
Nefarious — it's got this nasty tone to it. Poisonous gases leaking
from the gutters of a shady neighbourhood at night. Doesn't seem to be
something which originated purely in English language, but was brought
in from some other ancient language. A bastard? Maybe. Let's spread
rumours about it.
Nefarious. Trying to associate itself with the innocent and playful
nerf guns, but nah. Nefarious refers to an evil which is legendary and
mythologised in current civilization. It's a spite, but not an acquired
spite, but one which something is born with. It's the creature's innate
nature, and so you can't judge it. But it's got a style, and you should
watch it from the safety of a cage else all hell breaks loose, on you.
Oh no, you don't want that to happen.
Nefarious is not naughty. It's something far more sinister. It's a
snake. Don't be too enchanted by it.
