Grr they stole it from an episode of a Pup-Named-Scooby-Doo.
Whoever made it I'm angry with them because they messed up the biggest legal word that shouldn't be on neopets for 6 years younger.

tehehe, i find it funny actually, to have that long thing as the word of the day, i can barely say it without laughing or taking a big breath, then laughing.
i've never watched that show, so i really don't know *shrugs* is it in the dictionary?

Lol. They didn't steal it from Scooby Doo. It's a real word and anyone can use it.
Here's an entry from dictionary.com:
Main Entry: antidisestablishmentarianism
Function: noun
Definition: originally, opposition to the disestablishment of the Church of England, now opposition to the belief that there should no longer be an official church in a country
the biggest legal word that shouldn't be on neopets for 6 years younger
I don't understand this part of your post. Are you saying that kids shouldn't know this word?

Yeah I know it was the word of the day a while ago. Bah, who reads the word of the day anyway?

If that can get it, I wonder how the word for the fear of long words will go over.

I forget how you spell it, but I know that it's a phobia and it begins with H.

Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia. You know the doctors who came up with that one had a cruel sense of humor.

Something I wonder --when they first started the Word of the day stuff, they noted you'd get a prize if you put it in something like the caption contest or storytelling entry
....
Just how the heck can you put "Antidisestablishmentarianism" into something like that?
