    Factually true, I concede. Remember molest is not always a sexual term

    A verb is a doing word. Molestful / molestrous is describing and therefore an adjective.

    Molestful is defined by the free dictionary as troublesome or vexatious. Something you could describe After Hours as being sometimes. Scumbag defines a person who is inclined to molest people. So maybe scummy?

    True, a simple added space and some capitalisation and it turns into a place name.

    Mole St

    Voila

    When molesting, lest is mo', lest you mean it in jest, in which case molest no mo', lest thy quest for breast be beaten to retreatin'.

    Hope that clears it up for you OP.

    Moles have feelings too you know:(
