Today's word

officious \uh-FISH-us\ - 1. volunteering one's services where they are neither asked nor needed : meddlesome  2. informal, unofficial
That moment when you realize that you have always and consistently misunderstood the meaning of a word. I always took it to mean something like "pompously, demonstratively official."
