4. When you learn something every day, learning is the opposite of unprecedented.
Gelato and Unemployment

You can do your own search for "Unemployment" and "Inflation" to see whether anybody has discovered any practical and proven or at least academic and hypothetical connections between them.

8. Gooey - and it can mean a lot of things but your #1 is the officially sanctioned meaning.

On Edit:
FYI: XAML is supposed to be pronounced "Zammel", but that sounds like some weird perverted mutant ungulet so I don't use it. As far as GUI is concerned, the "G" isn't really necessary anymore. In the early 80's there was a reason to distinguish it from what had been called a "UI", but "UI" pretty much covers it all anyway.
