Written in response to the following challenges; #WotD & #FOWC
When I saw todays challenge on #FOWC I nearly fell off my chair! Is that really a word? I have to admit to googling it, just to be sure.
Whenever Ive thought about the word highfalutin in the past I have always associated it with one thing… Yosemite Sam and Bugs Bunny and fond memories of childhood.
Although I cant find a video reference to him actually using this word I am almost certain this is where I have heard it from and why I always thought it was the imaginings of Warner Bros and not a real word itself.
I must thank Fandango for the trip down memory lane at five in the morning. I woke both of the kids up laughing at looney tunes! Guess what my two will be doing for the remainder of the day whilst I pig out their sty’s… Thats right… more looney tunes!
Yes, it is really a word and I’m happy to have triggered some good, fun memories for you! 👍

I ended up having to take the kids to the beach to tear them away from cartoons. They watched youtubes entire back catalogue yesterday.
Thanks again for some awesome memory laning!
