Word of the Day : November 21, 2018
noisome
adjective NOY-sum
Definition :
1 : noxious, harmful.
2 a : offensive to the senses and especially to the sense of smell.
b : highly obnoxious or objectionable.
Did You Know ?
Noisome sounds like it might be a synonym of noisy, but it's not. Something noisome is disgusting, offensive, or harmful, often in its smell. Noisome does not come from noise, but from the Middle English word noysome, which has the same meaning as noisome. Noysome was formed by combining the noun noy, which means "annoyance," with the adjectival suffix -some ("characterized by a (specified) thing, quality, state, or action"). Noy comes from Anglo-French anui, which also means "annoyance." As you may have already guessed, the English words annoy and annoyance are also related to noisome.
Examples :
"The streets were narrow and very dirty, the air smoky and noisome, the people mostly wretched." — Ken Follett, The Man From St. Petersburg, 1982.
"The last two newspaper offices where I worked were based in not-so-safe or particularly pretty areas of a city, and most nights when I left work I had to breathe in the noisome aromas of swamp gas, paper mill, deteriorating sewer lines and a dog food processing plant…." — Jackie Torok, The Brunswick Beacon (Shallotte, North Carolina), 27 May 2014.

Noisome Mind - Obscurity (LIVE)
Noisome Mind performing their song Obscurity @ Osijek, EPIC Club 17.04.2015. The video was recorded with Nikon Coolpix P510.
Good day my friend SGT John " Mac " McConnell I am a few days behind in responding to your educational posts :-)
I don't mean to be noisome; but, sometimes the urge to be sarcastic overcomes me and I become obnoxious :-)
The Biblical land of Nod was a place for noisome folks [Cain] since it was a place of anguished exile rather than of peaceful sleep and was located east of Eden (Genesis 4:16).
As I verge on nodding off at my normal nocturnal and diurnal post; I am reminded of the the noisome: nincompoops, the 'nattering nabobs of negativism' [apologies to Spiro Agnew], neo-Nazi, Antifa, and other despicable and deplorable groups.
Here is a musical selection which depicts noisome. There are a number of death metal bands with Noisome names or song titles

You brought up about noisome and I was think about a time when some of us were in the dayroom and had a little party going on when Some cooks on the other shift came in the dayroom. And. Plopped down in the area we wee.. One of them started to reach for a piece of pizza
When Gerri slapped his hand away..
I thought there’d be a rumble..
She told him he could have one when he went and showered and come back in something clean..
He asked her: “ so you think I stink, Gerri? “. “No Ronny, I think you’re noisome, now go shower and Gertie will save a piece!” Said being sweet as she could.. she told the other two the same .. So Ronny went off and was gone 15 minutes.. the other two took a little longer..
Gerri commented on Ronny’s
Noisome appearance.. He started
Back in and she stiopped him.. whispered s’ghing In his ear.. He turned beet red-like the inside center.. he dkdn’t Come back at all.. “what you say to him, Gerri ?
She told him his hygiene in a certain area still was offensive..
well.. he didn’t get no pizza that night.. We didn’t see him for a few days. It was his days off.. when I seen him at work it was when he had the early shift .. and he wasn’t as noisome as that other eve..
I ‘m hoping he got the hint.. he needed work on his hygiene.. I told his shiftleader he needed to get on him.. straighten him out or he’s getting a g.i. Shower.. from my shift
And it’s not going to be pretty when we’re done ! That bozo didn’t even stop to think.. He runs to the DH Suprer and says my shift was going to give Ronny a G.I. Shower..! So we all get hauled into the Squadron Cmdr’s Office .. I said we talked, we pleaded.. with him about his
Hygiene.. “why didn’t you come to me, my door’s open SSGT.. I was hoping we could persuade him ourselves.. I think it’s his diet of greezy food.. I triednot getting into
His ethnicity.. the social justice warriors would string s’one up talking about s’one’s ethnicity and diet.. Cmdr said he had a idea..
he got Ronny an appt with a internist ... it seemed he had a cyst in his intestine and.the greezy diet didn’t help, only hindered the cyst..
Why his hygiene was noisome..! So
We lost the young man about a week.. he was a hard worker so his shift missed him.. i’m Not trying to insinuate they’re a bunch of slackers but some could stand to increase s’thing in their work ethic..
They had Ronny go in every four to 6 month to check him out.. so a endoscopy was ordered. If anybody’s had one they have my sympathy.. He developed another cyst.. so a change of diet was ordered by the hospital. As an experiment.. he had 3 changes eliminating s’thing.. then a couple s’things.. came down to diverticulitis .. no grainy foods.. there go his rice and his whole grain breads., poppy seed and sesame seed rolls ., some beans.. He developed the prob after he came in service.. it wasn’t preexisting..
VA likes to deny whomver by claiming preexistence... I hope if he got out st end of service the VA
Didn’t mess him over..
