Word of the day: “politicoendomasuchia”

Politicoendomasuchia, n: unease with the concept of politicians in costume. -iast, one suffering from this unease.
(chuckle) Looks like the Prime Minister of Canada may be enough of a Trekkie to have once appeared in a convention masquerade. Gasp! Stagger! Swoon!

What will people who find this bothersome make of King Abdullah of Jordan, then? Or Stephen Hawking? (No, they’ll say, it’s OK in his case: he didn’t actually dress up!)
