Sesquipedalian
This is part of an ongoing personal project. I take my favorite big words and do a little animation to define them. It's mostly just an excuse to experiment freely in a short-attention span form.
This is a great word. But when would it ever really be useful? The only thing I could think of was a killer Scrabble game. And you’d have to be a total nerd to whip this insanely high scoring word out. Makes sense that Book is the smart one. Toaster is the angry one. Tissue is the emo one. Plant is the ditz. Fun Fact: The main characters were made with a sharpie and a pizza box lid. Scrabble set provided by Angelo. Music by Devotchka.

Here's the cast, waiting around in the green room.
