Same as a weathervane which moves with the direction of the wind.

New Rules:

If you know the answer you cannot say it out loud.  This contest is for the most creative definition you can think of.  Then if we we're inclined we  vote on the most creative.  New words will be posted in the mornings.  So don't forget to vote the night before, or anytime you want.

Slop, you won two votes yesterday, you may want to change your answer....I'm on the edge of my seat to see what you come up with on this one.

My answer would be obscene.  :o

A+ Slop, you showed good restraint on this one! :o

Although I do think you could keep it g-rated and would love to hear how you would explain that creative definition to a 3 year-old.

I would say it's the guy's equivalence to a "in the mood" barometer. Depending on the weather you get from your significant other - "Today it's icy cold, tomorrow will be torrid. You might see some fair weather when the weekend comes around, with possibilities of high heat."

Too funny Jenny, I thought you were talking about "point-device."  Glad you didn't read them, so I'm still going to give you a vote for the best faux pas.

The little laser pointer that instructors use?

Nope.  Hint: It's not anything like it sounds.

I know you all have been anxiously waiting on the edge of your seats to get the definition :)  So here it is:

point-device (point di-VYS) adverb

  Completely; perfectly.

adjective

  Perfect; precise; meticulous.
