I thought that the no googling rule was for trivia and riddles and such. I just tried to think of obscure and specific words with low likelihood of occurring together. And that's what I came up with (zoobenthos happens to be my main study object).
I did however type it into google before posting and was like

Give me no points if you must.

There is no coming back from this. Unless I win of course.
Yesterday, upon the stair, I saw a man who wasn't there. He wasn't there again today. Oh, how I wish he'd go away.

I usually score points. It is nice to see I scored a line for a change.
