The majority of us are pellucid as to the use of "pellucidly clear." on DU.

Would you ever use corn flakes on fried chicken?

Would you go to an Olive Garden in Times Square?

Do you return shopping carts in the parking lot?

If schoolkids don't have lunch money, should they get more than a cheese sandwich?

And for extra credit:

What is you favorite invasive vine?

Oasis is the greatest band ever. Yes?

Go into the tab "My DU"


Go into the "Trash Can" tab


You can enter the word "pellucidly" and click on "trash it"


You will never see that word again unless you decide to remove it. Fortunately we have tools here on DU that we can utilize.
