Talk:Laughs Under Lucricities

TRUE and HONEST origins of "lucrid"

Did Chris himself ever say that "laughs under lucricities" was equivalent to "laughs under lucrativeness"? If so, I don't recall. In any case, I really don't think that "lucrid" was derived from "lucid" (meaning "clear"), as this page currently implies. If anything, "lucrid" was derived from "lurid" (meaning "revolting"). Honestly, one of my favorite things about CWCki is how many editors here make fun of Chris's "tenuous grasp on the English language" when they are themselves just barely literate.

• I think that theory's likely. Chris called something a "lucrid defiance of a drawing" in Mailbag 48 and "lurid" might make sense in that context.-Phlegethon 17:17, 31 January 2010 (UTC)
