Pronunciation: Taw-DREE-mat

Sentence: It was pure pentathol when the best man, grinning like a cheshire cat, told the wedding guests that he knew the bride when she was Brian - not Brianna.

Etymology: TAWDRY: shameful, indecent, base, low, trashy, meretricious; tawdry secret, tawdry motives. LAUNDROMAT: A place where one can wash their "dirty linen" in public. PENTATHOL (sodium pentathol):truth serum
