    "Marmalade"

    It's a weird sounding word when you think about it.

    Clunge.

    Hehe, 'behooves' is a classic. Udders: concatenation, laboriousness, soporific, sacrilegious.

    I just like the word "no".

    I'm rather fond of randomly adding fcuk into a sentence.

    'Poppycock' is one I use a fair bit in jest. I go out of my way to use words that other people don't, or rarely use. It would be pretty fvcking boring if we all sounded the same.

    Dandelion...
    I have no idea why but whenever it comes up in conversation it makes me smile...
    Perhaps because if you think about it phonetically its:
    Dandy Lion...and that just brings up amusing images XD

    That can be classed as rape you know


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 215 ✭✭one-angry-dwarf


    Either Bungalow or Meringue (as in lemon meringue).
    Marmalade is also good.
    Most names for fruit too. Like Papaya, or Guava.
    I'm a little bit hungry now...
