Word to the Wise: Lubricious

"Lubricious" (loo-BRISH-us) - from the Latin for "smooth" - means (1) lustful or (2) slippery.

Example (as used by Eugene Robinson in The Washington Post): "Here was a place [Ipanema] where a kind of benign… anarchy seemed to rule, a lubricious, frictionless chaos into which one could simply disappear."
