Word of the Day... Haughty

[Aunt Marg]

Haughty: arrogantly superior and disdainful.
"a look of haughty disdain"

I have never been haughty, naughty is another matter.

 

[Aunt Marg]

I have never been haughty, naughty is another matter.

Nothing wrong with a little naughtiness from time-to-time.

 

[ohioboy]

Nothing wrong with a little naughtiness from time-to-time.

Oh, time is eternal.

 

[Aunt Marg]

Oh, time is eternal.

I'll just bet your mom had her hands full with you.

 

[Kaila]

I'll just bet your mom had her hands full with you

I agree.

She might have had to be a little bit haughty, at times,
in order to get herself, and him, to survive it.

 

[Kaila]

If you get the award that your best friend wanted, don't get haughty about it,

or you will lose more than you gained.

 

[Aunt Marg]

A little food for thought to all the woman here who have spouses or partners.... before getting your knickers in a bunch over your SO referring to another woman as "haughty", remember haughty serves as a much different expression than hottie.

 

[Kaila]

I once had a friend known as Dotty;
She hadn't been the least bit naughty.
Till she won the School Spelling Bee;
Took to bragging about geniuses in her family tree....
Became so annoying, was called, Dotty the Haughty.

A new boy moved into the town.
He offered to buy her a ring and a gown.
But he soon find out what he ought;
That Hot, she was Not!
So he left her with the bill and a frown.

She learned her lesson, did Dotty,
And with the help of her cousin named Lottie;
Apologized to her childhood friends,
and took kind actions to seek amends;
And we all forgave her, our long-time friend, dear Dotty.

My late mother and father's families specialised in haughtiness, very snobbish.

It's raining and cloudy here this morning. I think I'll have a Haughty Toddy to warm up.
