Word to your mother

I was all ready to give a huge rant about my boss (who is British (yes, I know I mentioned that before; I just felt it needed to be reiterated)) and how there's a difference between constructive criticism and condescension. However, I know that doing so would just get me more upset and cause me to say things that, well, I would mean. So, in lieu of said rant, here are some of my favorite words in the English language and their definitions (provided by various online dictionaries):

-"supraliminal": adj. existing above the threshold of consciousness
-"heretofore": adj. up to this time
-"extemporaneously": adv. carefully prepared but delivered without notes or text
-"religiosity": n. excessive or affected piety
-"rascality": n. the character or actions of a rascal; knavery
-"pedagoguery": n. a pedagogic establishment; the occupation of a pedagogue
-"vilify": v. to utter slanderous and abusive statements against
-"blitzkrieg": n. war conducted with great speed and force
-"demagoguery": n. impassioned appeals to the prejudices and emotions of the populace

And of course,
-"bastardize": v. to modify especially by introducing discordant or disparate elements
