OK, if I can stop laughing long enough to get this out, I hereby do give, bequeath and confer to you the right to all the ranting you like! Consider it the reward for such a wonderful post. I enjoyed it greatly.
By the way, I've heard the word a lot (don't ask -- just trust me here: lots o'weird words in Racer's past...) and it's often used exactly the way you used it. It's a great word, and I'm very happy to learn that there's a chance -- no matter how slim -- that I will someday find a use for some of my weird words, too. I'd hate to think they were just cluttering up my mind and collecting dust -- although some of them no doubt are. (Anthelmintic comes to mind...)
