    I've already posted my "favorite" word but on a similar note, my least favorite word is "gullet". I'm not sure why, it just sounds ugly to my ears, if that makes sense. Yuck.

    Hey guys, if you take all the words from this topic and put them together like a poem it looks like this:

    Panache canard solecism;
    esoteric, actually -
    frooglesniffen guffaw Constantinople.
    Kataphraktoi glass dawn, idiosyncrasy plum bourgeoisie.
    Antidisestablishmentarianism only.
    Hand nice - hereabouts folk sort.
    Pretty burble! Cacophony, tintinnabulation!

    Crestfallen elixir lagoon. "Woebegone,"
    murmur bibliomaniac, "Discombobulate Winnebago."
    Gormless nebula! Effervescent shabangabang!

    Kumquat.

    Dead doucheface kakistocracy.
    Love! Eunoia! Twilight succumbed...
    Endless toying, storming! Eschew!
    Callipygous, peachy.
    Defenestrate stubborn strengths!

    Lascivious Opeth, shoop fragment, psithurism -
    The Lozenge Hooligan, honey! Bunny carnival;
    charm cloud destiny; dream fairy; happy rainbow.
    Sapphire smile sky soul sunshine.
    Literally, actually facetious onomatopoeia.
    Hieroglyph -
    cellar door murmur -
    supercalifragilisticexpialidocious shenanigans!
    Threadbare, furtive, brazen!

    You - ostensibly cromulent, gregarious...
    Congratulations! Votive demagogue! Simulacrum!
    Exchequer panacea spoliation,
    gynarchy pastiche.
    Enigma entropy epsilon -
    Prerogative tomfoolery. "Peripatetic,"
    snuffled coil. "Rush! Refresh frost!"

    Sapphire procrastination.

    Douche!
    Fudgepacker!
    Nincompoop!
    Electoral interstellar inter-dimensional anal beads.
    Aperture -
    Glimpse corybantic juxtaposition.
    Inchoate skunk, throb! Billow, osmosis!

    Dish.

    It doesn't mean a thing but it sure reads nicely with all those beautiful words in there. Also, sorry for a long pointless post. I just felt the need to show the world how pathetically unoccupied I am at the moment.

    My least favorite word is 'nasty." - I just hate that word. It just sounds ugly to my ears - that and it could be that my brother would say it over and over again to annoy me when I was younger because he knew I hated it.

    I honestly think the worst word in the English dictionary is Smegma...that stuff that forms when a man has bad hygeine and sperm mixes with his urine to form this, well, cheese...what the word represents and how it sounds is just horrible, but funny :)

    To be honest, as bad as the word "smegma" is, the substance is references is worse. :D

    haha, you're right of course. What can be worse than a horribly-smelling concoction of sperm and urine? AIDS maybe... :D

    I agree. "Smegma" is actually a new word to me and I'm glad I wasn't eating lunch when I read the description... :eek: LOL! Yeah, definitely don't like that word

    Yeah, not a fan of "snot" either... LOL

    My sentiments exactly. Though, sadly, I'd already heard of it...

    Or Family Guy, either way. ;)

    I love the word sleep, or slept. Maybe because I love sleeping.

    You know, not to be rude, but I'm pretty sure everyone's already heard about it.

    Pandemonium
    Havoc
    Annihilation
    Nest

    I just love they way they all sound and I constantly refer to my bed or the couch as my "nest" and when I'm relaxing, I say I'm "nesting."

    I hate the words "groin" and "loins." Just the way they sound. Bleh.

    I like anything that has a long O sound. Like low, bow, show, foe. It has the power to sound sexy or bubbly. :)

    Or a short E sound. Like shell, trellis, mess.

    So you know what the best words are?

    Hello, and Mellow Yellow. ;)

    Chain. Or chain-link, like fences or chainmail.

    Chain has a really pleasant sound, now that you mention it. Same with Charming, Charm, Chimes, etc.

    I think the word "shadow" is pretty too.

    Chain. I can just hear the clinking of chain mail when I say it. :p

    For some reason, I always liked the word production. I guess it has a colorful sound to it.

    Regardless.

    It must be my favorite word, because I use it way too much.
