Thing Not To Be Today: viscous.

 Oh, the joy of a good typo!

The Word Den has just seen someone describe Mr Putin a a viscous tyrant.

Presumably that means he's thick and likely to come to a sticky end.

Thing Not To Be Today: viscous. This word comes from the Latin word viscōsus, sticky, from viscum, which means mistletoe or birdlime.
