Thesaurus: my favorite dinosaur



As a writer, I use the thesaurus often. Most of the time it is quite a helpful tool (instrument used to shape, gadget, device, person who allows himself to be used), however sometimes I find the suggested synonyms to be insanely amusing (entertaining, pleasant, gladdening).

Such as today's entry: Old/Older

Amusing proposed synonyms: decrepit, fossil, grizzled, oldish

A synonym for old is oldish?
