Early morning gesticulations

Some mornings I wake up with a word stuck in my head. It kind of knocks around in there all day and pops out at the strangest moments. Usually it’s one of those words that inexplicably sounds funny. Wibble is one of them. Today it’s gesticulate.

Gesticulate. I don’t even know why it’s funny. It’s sounds a lot like articulate, but articulate isn’t funny. Well I suppose that depends on what you’re articulating. It would be especially funny if you were articulating while gesticulating.

Polyglot is another good one. And cornucopia. Telephony.

I just have to resign myself to having gesticulatory conversations all day.
