Today’s word was supposed to be FUNCTIONABLE.
I lived for 46 ½ years without ever once stumbling upon this word. The moment I heard it used – no fewer than three times in one edited-for-television hour – I knew that it was my WOTD.
Lo and behold, I looked up the word and apparently I was incorrect! FUNCTIONABLE is in fact a word that is just as acceptable as the more widely acknowledged FUNCTIONAL.
So, to former HGTV Design Star design-testant, and ruffled pink tux shirt wearing, Jason Champion, I humbly apologize for calling you a “!@#$%^& illiterate *&&^%$#.” Apparently I was wrong when I called you that. But your room did look completely crappy and you totally deserved to have your show cancelled, “functionable” or not.
