Are you a scrabble player? Do you need to show your friends or family up and dethrone that one person who just can't stop winning? Well here you go, here are 20 high scoring Scrabble words to help you get that edge your going to need to win.

1. CAZIQUES

This word was played in England 1982 my a Dr. Karl Khoshnaw and ser the record for the highest single word score in a Scrabble competition. 392. Pretty crazy right. This word was used by tribes of Indians when asked to describe their chief by Spanish explorers in the West Indies. It can also be spelled "Caciques".

2. AGLOO

This word means an air hole made in the ice by a seal.

3. JOUSTED

Take your Scrabble to the next level and stun your players off their chairs with this medieval word.

4. ALLEE

Don't have a Y for Alley, don't worry. Allee refers to a treelined walkway.

5. JUKEBOX

Make it old school. Be the jukebox hero.

6. DRESSAGE

This word is referring to fancy horse training when they do their fancy footwork and stuff. Sorry, I don't really know horses.

7. GHYLL

If your tile bar is low on vowels give this word a go. A ghyll is a deep ravine.

8. QUEUE

Ever been to the DMV? Then you've probably stood in a queue, a line of people. One it's own, without any extra points from particular tiles, this word is worth 14 points. Give it a go.

9. MOGGY

A moggy or moggies (which is more than one) is the cat equivalent of a mutt.

10. PIGGERY

Do you have the letters for Piggy? See if you've got an E and R as well. A piggery is a pig pen.

15. MUZJIKS

A muzjiks is a Russian peasant and it can earn you 29 points. You're welcome.

16. ZYMURGY

This a branch of chemistry that deals with fermentation such as winemaking or brewing beer.

17. QUETZALS

A quetzal is the national bird of Guatemala and one of Guatemala's measuring units.

18. QUIZZIFY

Ok yes, there is only one Z tile, but if you've got a blank tile you can use that as one of the Z's. Show them just how savvy you are with this game.

19. SCABBLE

No not scrabble scabble. Scabble means to shape roughly.

20. AA

Before you ask, yes this word is only worth 2 points, but when the game is winding down and you've got one of the most plentiful letters in your tile bar take the opportunity. Aa is solidified lava that is rough, like cinders. The other kind of solidified lava is pahoehoe, which is formed from hotter lave, that's smooth. If you could play pahoehoe in a scrabble game I will personally make you a paper crown and mail it to you.

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

StableDiffusion

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

13 Times April Ludgate Perfectly Explained College

Because who understands your bitterness better than April?

Indiana University - Purdue University Indianapolis

897

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
