First and foremost, leave as many funny definitions for either word (or both) as you can think up in the comments!! The ones that make me laugh the hardest will be given the Silly Goose Award.
Next, if you know (or think you know) the true definitions without looking them up then be sure and leave those in the comments too!! All definitions that are correct (or close enough for government work and Mighty Mom) will win the Smarty Pants Award!

Well, it ain't as much fun to win when you're playing solo. :o(
Virago I know - it's a quarrelsome, harping woman.
Viridity - hmmm....Let's see...

Actually, I think viridity is truthfulness, as in, "Sources checking the viridity of the story confirm that the facts are true."
Hmmm--I hope Dianne's wrong about viridity--and that she's thinking "veracity" for truthfulness.
Because I like the other definition better. 8^)
Viridity - sort of like hereditary except it's reserved for we Virgos of the world!
Virago - again reserved for we Virgos, similar to vertigo but dizziness just for us!
I know - these definitions are horrible but they are the best I can do with one functioning brain cell this morning!
viridity-In the Greek(Verr-to ponder ones youth; id-self; ity- to isolate)this word in English is a private activity of youthful happiness.
virago-One who struggles with the blend "th"...this is a long drawn out thereyougo...in Southern.
