I thought this would be a good thread to balance out the other word thread...

What are some words that you like?

Here are a few of mine:


snark
craptastic (both lifted from TWoP :lol: )
fook :lol: (especially now that I know its background)

Plethora is fun. :nod:

Another of my favorites: Salsipuedes. It's a street name in Santa Barbara, and I always had to say it when we drove by the street sign. I like to give it a Portuguese twist. :lol:

I don't know the background of fook, but I like it anyway. :)

My favorite word is snout. No idea why.

And I like fake words like recockulous and beyotch. :lol:

Following along Sheila's British words line, two that I like:

knickers (as in, "Don't get your knickers in a twist!" :lol: )
manky (I have a Welsh friend that uses that word a lot, as in "Did you pull that idea from somewhere dark and manky?" :lol: )
