According to the official dictionary apparently...

Kind of impressed that it got up against all the, more mainstream, competition.

Yeah, good luck with getting that on a scrabble board.

GEOCACHE = 8 letters. You have 7 in your hand. So you need a perfect storm to get both the space and the one available letter on the board to make this 8 letter word. No idea of what the odds are of that happening.

Could be handy later in the game if the word CACHE has been placed I guess.

Gotta love this:

“I’m angry that my weird, nerdy hobby has been coopted by other people’s weird, nerdy hobby.”

When our cat was spayed Mrs Yurt made a little sock filled with padding to put around the cat's neck to prevent her chewing out her stitches. We called the device a 'tnetennba'.
