brag·ga·do·ci·o (brāg'ə-dō'sē-ō', -shē-ō', -shō) Pronunciation Key
n. pl. brag·ga·do·ci·os
A braggart.
Empty or pretentious bragging.
A swaggering, cocky manner.


[Alteration of Braggadocchio, the personification of vainglory in The Faerie Queene by Edmund Spenser, from brag.]

I have GOT to use this in a sentence.

Also I've been wikiInterested in Cockney Rhyming Slang lately. I kinda wanna see some movies where it occurs, like Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, which I've never seen. What's the only thing that could make me more annoying? A new form of wordplay.

Also reading this lately. I used to dislike Kipling, but recently Colridge's Kublah Kahn rocked my face off recently, so why not, 19th century British poetry? Why not indeed.
