To draw back or shy away, as from fear; flinch.

random, I know, thank google...

It's not even that good a word though. There are many better words that mean real things, like 'flange' or 'combobulate'. Or even 'Arse-candle' and 'fuckwit'.

yeah, or just normal words with extra bits stuck in and extra endings and such

Codswallop, that's a good word. I like that one.

And even though it's a phrase rather than a single word, 'Gordon Bennet.' That's definitely one of my favourites.

But back to humorous words. Parabola, that's a good one if you say it in a humorous way.

Ah blench. The holiest of words. Not the real word mind, the one my mate Dylan came up with and that was then adapted by me to mean everything. Blench.

I much prefer that adaptation to be quite truthful!!!!

Who needs another word for flinch? Flinch is fine without being blench...

Flange is a real word isn't it, i thought it was a group of baboons.?...... Oh spitfire you have made me so drunk.

by **jonny_boy34** on Sat May 26, 2007 10:45 pm

I know Flange to be an effect that you use to make guitars sound cool.

Yes, that's what I learnt on the 3 year Music Production degree I just finished. That was worth the money, I tell ya.

I do wish a group of baboons was called a Flange. That would make my life so much better.

I haven't seen much of the Blackadders, but I can well imagine how amazing that must've been. Rowan Atkinson is a living legend! The Thin Blue Line came on tv the other day on uktv gold, and it still made me chuckle quite a bit.
