I read inculcate in a textbook and didn't know what it meant, but loved it anyway because it sounded like milk & honey - I walked around dropping it into sentences here and there, because yeah - it sounds like a smell of an all-day Sunday dinner, so says jimtoole. Then one day a cruel friend inculcated me into the true meaning of inculcate and I was crushed. It seriously has a discrepancy between how cool it sounds and how cool it is.

Neologism. The act of proudly proclaiming one's own ignorance.
Example:
"Oh, I wouldn't know who Bill O'Reilly is. I don't watch TV."
