2 correct, neither of them correct in any previous guess
Quote:
SherbityNippleDouseIre - anger (stemming from extreme disappointment) after losing the contents of a sherbert fountain all over one's chest and discovering one's tongue is too short to salvage its deliciousness. Trust me... *glare* That is SO annoying!
2 correct, 1 from a previous guess and 1 from above (definition left in because I like it)
Quote:
SiniYetiBopeepHurdlers
1 correct from previous, 1 new
Quote:
DitheryEirinPubeSlopes
1 correct from previous, 1 new (neither matching directly above)
Quote:
HirsuteBopeepRinsyDeli
1 from previous (ew)
Quote:
SloppyUbeeDeerRhinitis
1 correct, matches one in first above
Now wondering if I've given enough information for Mike to make any headway with the logic chart he's probably started by now.
Also wondering if it's worth the effort to rewrite the above sentence so it doesn't start and end with the same word. Probably not.
[edit]
Let me add that 3 of your guesses (2 previous, 1 in this post) match one of the two letters that were correct in the first place.

Oh rrreeeAARRLY... *retract nose and sprout horn*
I think you should know by now, Mike, that your bomb... *extinguish fizzy bit* will not save you. Nor ... *cool glare* will Chris's sniggering...
PerspiredHi-Isobutylene – highly destructive defence mechanism that, if triggered, will obliterate the entirety of the milky way to the very tippiest bits of her spiral arms, and possibly even the entire known universe. The mechanism *blink latitudinally* deploys following unlawful arrests of a creature known as an anniet... y-e-e-s this IS true people... and is then activated *reach for a tissue* ... when her lacrimals subsequently monsoon...
PriorlyBushiestEpeeDin – recriminatory racket following the sudden removal of significant amounts of hair with just one swish of a sword. *eye-up Mike's beard...*
SylphidineBrierToupees – hairpiece (guaranteed by design, not to fall into your soup or blow away in a storm) fashioned from the brier rose. Most commonly worn by balding fairies, nymphs and sylphs.
EeryInbredPhilosipetus – strange nocturnal animal (arising from a one-time only successful breeding program between a hippo and a platypus) and from where the term blue moon comes from. Spending much of the day asleep and most of their nights in a trance waiting for a full moon (during which they hum sweetly in the fashion of Clangers) EeryInbredPhilosipeti are the ultimate in low maintenance pets – except during those 13th full-moon-in-a-year occasions, where they burst into tears and flood the place. Awwwwwwww... :(
PeripheryTubenoseIdils – moments of idyllic calm enjoyed by some members of fish, bird, and bat species, but not elephants, nor anniets. When they raise their noses up and a little to the side, you can be pretty sure the whiff they're getting, is one they're not too keen on. Yes. And I mean no.
IBuyRinderpestPieholes - the relationship between political rulers and their nations' media moguls.
HideousPeripetyBliners - sudden and unpleasant change in the course of events during the manual operation of bin liners.
*beam knowledgeably at einsteinians* so the next time you find your feet mysteriously planted in a mound of litter tray contents whilst your fist rises triumphantly ceilingwards clasping an empty bag – you now know what happened.

Snigger? S N I G G e R ? ? An English gentleman does not snigger, one diguises a mild chortle in ones kercheif upon the pretext of a mild sternutation from the probocis.
Oooohh a "cool glare", hey I got promotion from a withering glance!!! Ya see it pays to be a faithful courtier with deferential respect. Or was that differential respect? No that was summat to do with a rear axle ????

4 correct, and for the first time, two in a row correct; also, one that you have not had correct before (in fact, it's the first of the two in a row)

1 correct, and it's one you haven't had before

Okay, I will give you one of the same hints you just gave at Seti: none of your guesses so far has had the last letter right. I will go further and say that four of your guesses have had the first letter correct (which still leaves two possibilities, bwaaahahaha!). One more thing: in both cases of two in a row correct today, the one of the pair that was previously correct is an E.
And I will give a definition-type hint: the word is a good description of my little faux pas at the beginning when I said the scramble had one right and then changed it to two.
