NEW SCRABBLE WORDS

"SCRABBLE'S" OFFICIAL WORD LIST NOW INCLUDES "ZZZ" . . . WHICH IS THE SOUND YOU MAKE WHEN YOU SNORE:

I am absolutely LIVID this morning. Would you like to know why? Because I'm a "Scrabble" enthusiast, and I just found out that the latest edition of the game's official word list includes three new "words" . . . which are completely ridiculous.

See for yourself . . .

#1.) "Za" . . . an 11-point word which is slang for "pizza"

#2.) "Qi" (--pronounced "Chi") . . . an 11-point word which is defined as the human "life force"

#3.) "Zzz" . . . a 30-POINT WORD which is the sound you make when you snore

(--I know, you probably don't really care about this. But you have to admit that if one of your friends beat you in a tight game of "Scrabble" by using the word "Zzz" . . . you'd probably think it was a cheap way to win. Right? Yeah, you would.) (Wall Street Journal)
