Word of the Day: Esoteric

Esoteric

An adjective, meaning "designed for or understood by the specially initiated alone" or "requiring or exhibiting knowledge that is restricted to a small group".

Use it in a sentence:

"Dude, you make some of the most random, esoteric jokes I have ever heard in my life!"

When you think about it, "inside jokes" that we all have among our friends could be considered esoteric in nature. I ran into this word while reading an article about a Project I work on (see article) at my job.
