unearths some literary gems.
From "Doing Clarence a Bit of Good," by P. G. Wodehouse:
[Sometimes it's not what you say, it's how well you what-not it.]***To make you understand the full what-d’you-call-it of the situation, I shall have to explain just how matters stood between Mrs. Yeardsley and myself.***“If I had the artistic what’s-its-name,” he went on, “if the mere mention of pictures didn’t give me the pip, I daresay it wouldn’t be so bad.”***And the moment she said it I knew something was going to happen. You know that pre-what-d’you-call-it you get sometimes? Well, I got it then.***Well, after all, if you see what I mean—— The days that are no more, don’t you know. Auld Lang Syne, and all that sort of thing. You follow me?***
