Use Big Words Carefully: Word of the Day
en·croach
intr. v.
1. To take another's possessions or rights gradually or stealthily.
Example: Mr. Bad Mannerz—our fearless leader's arch nemesis—began to encroach on Mr. Mannerz territory by offering poor advice to society's lowest common denominator.
Mr. Mannerz is in you. Not in that way you lowdown, dirty pervert. Mr. Mannerz is in your heart. Mr. Mannerz is in an Upper East Side classic six. Mr. Mannerz is in a well-appointed town home in Buckhead, Atlanta. Mr. Mannerz is sunning on a yacht on the French Riviera. Mr. Mannerz is where you need him to be at all times. If you want Mr. Mannerz in your cramped Section 8 apartment, I'll be there, too. I won't be spending the night, but I'll be there during the day time. That's how dedicated I am.
