Antidisestablishmentarianism

I just flipped when i heard a little kid utter this on a Dairy Queen commercial. I was probably in the 2nd or 3rd grade, tops, when I came upon my back hallway blackboard with this word written on it. Mom's doing, always honing my superiority over others. I promptly memorized it, becoming the latest dazzling example of my mastery at spelling. You DID know I got a 100% on every single spelling test through 5th grade? That's right, not a single word wrong in 6 years. Can I put this on my resume? You so rarely hear this pointlessly pompous little word. God, that is SO funny that it's now on a national commercial...and uttered by a little kid like I was at the time. To this day, it's a word i'll doodle in my stunning, nun-taught handwriting when i'm bored somewhere. Thanks, mommy!
