Fantastic word game

Xanthoma sufferers wondered aloud, "Bet you can't find anything else that starts with X."

That's right... I'm imposing a special rule... There's only so many words that start with X, and the usual suspects - X-rays, xylophones, and the obligatory Xanadu reference - have now been used. I suppose we could start with the Y's today and continue with the Y's tomorrow.
 
You can't find anything else that starts with X except for xanthareel, xanthic, xanthippe, xanthocarpous, xanthochroia, or even xanthocyanopsy which is form of colour-blindness in which only blue and yellow can be distinguished.

No Y's until tomorrow, sorry. Please post with an X or sit out today. The choice is yours.

Ooops...not fast enough.

xenografts to keep the X's going is a good way to continue and I like the challenge because I'm learning lots of news words today including xanthocyanopsy, a form of colour-blindness in which only blue and yellow can be distinguished
 
Xanthocyanopsy, a form of colour-blindness in which only blue and yellow can be distinguished, sounds like it presents its own set of problems, and xerotic doesn't mean what you'd think it means at first.
 
Xerotic doesn't mean what you'd think it means at first which is true because it means dry, not erotic or sexy and thanks to our excursion today into X words, I now know that when I grow up I want to be a xylopolist.
 
Xylopolist should be consulted when finding materials to build the housing for certain percusive MIDI instruments whose serial interfaces communicate using XON/XOFF flow control.

[size=8pt]Had to look up "xylopolist" in Wiktionary.....
 
Xenops love to eat rain forest bugs and quite possibly occasionally enjoy a drink of water through a straw made of xylem.
 
Xylol, according to wiktionary, apparently has something to do with xylene which is an isomeric aromatic hydrocarbon which is nothing I can coherently write about so I thought instead I'd mention how all these X clues made me think of the game show Hollywood Squares and the way you win would be getting 3 X's in a row across, up and down, or diagonally.


I'm X-hausted now. ;D
 
X's in a row across, up and down, or diagonally, or O's in a row across, up and down, or diagonally, if O's were the hand you were dealt, are also something you might do if you had a free piece of wood and were one of America's xylographers.
