Wonky

Filed Under W 

This word came about because an acquaintance had some sort of eye disorder.  I guess cockeyed would have been the most appropriate description, but since we only saw him late at night in bars (he never made it to our 8am class),and was kind of a goober, he became affectionately known as Wonky.

Haven’t seen him in years, but we now use wonky to describe almost everything, from something looking a little tilted and off kilter to having a bad feeling about something.  I just can’t figure out what is wrong with my car, it’s driving kinda wonky today.
