Did you use the free trial for the dictionary you linked? I did. The word is not there.
I have an unabridged Tormont-Webster's at home, and the word is not in there either.
As for the thesaurus, look at all the other, better, more elegant and, yes, simpler words you could have used instead.

Nah. He already set up a fallback argument for himself with this:
Quote:
Like "utilize." It's a real word, but just about every style manual will tell you to NEVER use it, if your goal is clear communication.
This way, when you prove him wrong, he can try to justify himself with the "unnecessary verbiage" argument.
Well, yeah, because it's a valid argument.
Listen moron.

If you look up coadjutor you'd see that it reads:
I know I'm not a bishop or a priest, but I wanted to play off of the whole "hierarchy" or "royalty" thing.
I'm right in SO many ways.
If you're upset that I used a big word you couldn't understand, which made you look stupid when you ***umed I didn't know what I was talking about, just say so and I'll say I'm sorry. But please do yourself a favor and stop trying to argue the existence of a word that obviously exists and was appropriate for what I was trying to accomplish in my post.
Yet again, you're a moron, thanks for proving my point YET AGAIN.
If you really are so dense you can't acknowledge that I was right and drop your frivolous argument you are truly beyond help and a waste of my time.

Hey, I was using the dictionary link YOU posted. Still can't find the damned thing in a dictionary, any dictionary. Priest thing? That might be witty, if it in any way matched the subject or style of your post.
I to stick my original position. If Webster's won't acknowledge it, not even the unabridged one that you linked, (haha, you dumb lazy ***) then neither will I.
Face it. You're just an unhappy little man who likes to use big words to express small ideas.

We're talking about coadjute, not coadjutor (which is a real, standard, though archaic, word). Notice how there's no verb form listed in the definition? Hmmm. I challenge you to find it in a DICTIONARY.
As for your priest thing? Meh. You had the style of a sermon, kind of, but it didn't deliver any of the funny that I think you felt it did.
As for your thread? Double meh. You even let it get derailed into a quibble about word definition and usage. See how unfunny you are? I know you want to say that I'm the moron (who isn't in your world?) that led it here, but I'm not the one trying to be the judge of good and bad threads and posting (other than your feeble attempts).
As for the OG posters, you seem like the Ringo of the bunch, just sort of glomming on to people who are smarter and funnier than you.

DICTIONARY DICTIONARY DICTIONARY! Find it in a dictionary. Not coadjutor, not coadjutate; find coadjute in a dictionary. You won't, because it's a corrupted verb-form of coadjutor, which is a noun.
I'll have to wait until I go to work to find out the skinny on Roget's listing of it.
