What's your favorite and least favorite word
« on: October 11, 2007, 09:12:56 PM »
Words I dislike are always due to pronounciation. Some words are pronounced really gross.

One example: Gloat.

Just say that repeatedly and you'll feel really dirty. :yuck

Gloat gloat gloat gloat. UGHHH!! I do like the meaning of the word though.

Another word I dislike is astute. Astute sounds kinda gay.

One of my favorite words is feeble. Feeble sounds fucking awesome and means weak, it's like a cool way of saying weak. The word weak is nowhere near as good as the word feeble.

I really love the word quagmire.  And fathom.

I hate the word schizophrenia, because it's so fucking awkward to type.

Schizophrenia is one that I hate, because the average person uses it wrong. I also hate demeaning words aimed at women - bitch, c***, etc. I'm lucky that I have a strong mom and two grandmothers who taught me to respect women. We can get in a debate over "do bitches actually exist?" and yes, they do...but I never feel comfortable with the word.

I'm not a fan of distinguished black fellow either, at least not the way it's been allegedly "changed". It's not a coincidence that most blacks who lived through the civil rights era don't use it as a "term of endearment"

Words I like...hmm. "Bananas".

ever since i was about 10 i've been saying my favourite word is "bib" and i think that still stands today.

it's short.
it sounds funny.
it's a palindrome.
it looks awesome when written.
