FIZGIG

Oh yeah. I forgot. When I was studying the JQXZ 6s, I found this word toward the end of the stack and I had to look it up:

FIZGIG n pl. -S fishgig

FISHGIG n pl. -S a pronged implement for spearing fish

I find this funny because my ISC handle is Fuzzgig, which is not Scrabble playable and has nothing to do with FIZGIG. In fact, I never heard of FIZGIG. As a vegetarian, I don't find myself using fish-spearing tools all that often.

If I never mentioned it before, Fuzzgig was a cartoon I used to draw when I was younger. Fuzzgig looked like a cross between a McDonald's Fry Guy and Cousin It from the Addam's Family. Most of his adventures involved him getting electrocuted, or falling into an electric dryer, so that the punch line was a picture of him and his hair being all poofed out.
