I refuse to have the last word on this subject.
Okay... There's all kinds of things wrong with what you just said.

Zyxt.
Hmm, I doubt it. Probably the last word is the final word of the definition of 'zyxt'. Which probably reads something like this:

obscure and obsolete Kentish term meaning "to see"

I guess "see" as the LWITOED

See?

Bite me you old donkey. I Google "last word in the dictionary" and that's what I go. If the interwebz says it is so then it is so.

Ah! So the OED doesn't bother to define ZYXT. It just says "ZYXT" and then nothing at all. No wonder it's out of print - they got lazy.

You're all irritating me but it doesn't bother me because I'm very experienced, successful and well adjusted.

Well at that particular point I was posting on my phone, without benefit of readers. You see the results. Bad grammar and contestable information, just so you can sit nursing your bum knee and still feel that you are contributing to society in some meaningful way by offering gentle guidance with your superior wisdom in these matters.

Kentish indeed.

"Contributing to society"? When did that start? And it's knees.

Listen... er... read... I made a joke about the last word not being the last word but the last word in the definition of the last word. And for this I'm excoriated?

Meade, if @W were to see you in person, I have no doubt that she would prefer to excorticate you.

I'm pretty sure Meade will call your post a knee-jerk response.
