Rhyme time; (thyme? Wait...)

...have you seen Webster's Rhyming Dictionary?
(Who are you, anyway? I should address you; "Dear Imaginary Friend"...)

This thing is weird. You have to relearn the English language to use it.

I picked it up at Target the other day for a dollar; don't actually think I need it, seeing as how I have made a thousand legitimate rhymes in the past few months just using my thinker. I couldn't resist, though.

240 "ism" words, give or take 1. Including: me-tooism, hooliganism,(there's a great song waiting to happen,) Quakerism, Shakerism, (very popular,) paroxysm (note the lack of the letter "i"! Special!) snobbism, botulism, (Yum!)

I am so inspired. *snoring*
Wait, I don't snore; I talk in my sleep.
It would probably be in rhyme if it were comprehensible.

Would Mr. Webster be okay with these lists of words not being in alphabetical order?
I think not.

Need to know what rhymes with EW?
"Whoop-de-doo, Xanadu, bolt from the blue (used that last month already!),Brian Boru, Cardinal virtue, cornflower blue (that actually inspires...) didgeridoo...

It may be handy at some point. I'm sure it will. But I could've gotten a nice chai...
oh well. We all know Starbucks is more than a dollar, and one can never have enough books. Wait...

Wait; I think the cornflower was worth the dollar... I can feel it....

Okay, 'nuf said.
