I have one word for you, but it's a doozy: pneumoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis.

Been waiting your whole life to break that one out, haven't you? If that doesn't deserve an upvote I don't know what does.

... a disease where you breathe sub-microscopic silicon volcanoes?

My best guess is where you breathe "ultra" fucken tiny silica bits from a volcano.

I didn't actually intend it to be a stupid joke; I was actually trying to parse the word, and then it turned out I was in the middle of a redditesque joke thread. But, no, I doubt it, especially given the number of downmods.
