Now I'm really "discombobulated".


According to Cotty, we're all discombobulated.  <g>

BTW, if discombobulated means confused, does combobulated (if there's
such a word) mean the opposite?  Like, I'm totally combobulated means
that I've got my head on straight, and I know what's going on and all
like that, right?

From Yourdictionary.com:

tr.v. dis�com�bob�u�lat�ed, dis�com�bob�u�lat�ing, dis�com�bob�u�lates

To throw into a state of confusion. See Synonyms at confuse.

A suggestion there that it originates from "discompose". You seem to be a fairly composed sort of chap, so "combobulated" is probably a good description for you 8-)))))

(I thought it was spelled "discumbobulated" but that's because I'm a thick Northerner)
