Who needed to look it up anyway?

Ambi - a prefix occurring in loanwords from Latin, meaning “both” ( ambiguous) and “around” ( ambient); used in the formation of compound words: ambitendency. Origin of ambi- Expand. Latin.

Turn - move or cause to move in a circular direction wholly or partly around an axis or point

Er - a suffix serving as the regular English formative of agent nouns, being attached to verbs of any origin ( bearer; creeper; employer; harvester; teacher; theorizer).

"Ambiturner" made perfect sense the second I read it.

This is a car forum, so I read it as ambituner.

Earliest opening with my optometrist is three weeks out.

Stay away from the Ambien.

anyone ever had the fire alarm go off when you were in the middle of taking a dump?

HunterGreene · 08-22-2016, 04:22 PM

And I'm back after spending (basically) 2 weeks in Detroit (cue @Tcoat getting angry and posting that I was across the river from him and forgot to drop him a line).

So, what did I miss?

I was on vacation for a week of that so you are off the hook this time.
