(yes, you could have had 'leafiest', Loopy. It is a word and there would have been only two changes)

Interesting point Bellanonna. I looked it up and came across the following example sentences:

He experienced an absurd guilt, told himself she wasn't going to be back here soon enough to notice, and felt guiltier still.
His expression was one of sympathy rather than condemnation, which made Tara feel even guiltier.

Are there degrees of guilt though? I suppose I could be guilty more frequently than someone else ?

Guiltier
