That's a good one! I recall a time when Landshark was obsessed with both the word "pagan" and sticking "-age" on the end of everything (this was back when we were all in high school and that was still a fresh idea). One day I heard him sitting at his desk, cracking himself up saying "paganage" over and over.
Thanks for the nod, Stannery. Forgot about that one.
I like "gelatinous" surprisingly it describes a large number items, mostly in a not so pleasant way. As in:
I left my gummy bears in a hot car all day. Now they have fused together into a huge gelatinous blob.

[Image]I'm just sitting here typing in SKU numbers for a huge order of hair product (new temp job, more on that later), and the particular batch of products I'm entering are part of a line called Magma.
Say it, won't you? Magma. Mag. Ma. Lava, but before it comes out of the ground. Awesome word.
My old favorite word was "counterintuitive." These days it has been replaced by "festooned." If I get tired of that one, I think "magma" is a likely contender.
How about you, 'thonners? Favorite words? Help me out, I'm doing data entry over here.
"You know what's a good word? Magma"

I dog the word "dysthymic" and for some reason I've always liked the word "quart" Why? Beats me

I meant "dig" of course.

I've heard you say "dysthymic" many times. It's handy.

Hmmm. Let me think about this and get back to you.
All I know is that my favorite insult at the moment is "penis wrinkle" because what's more useless than that?

Skullduggery.
In fact, any time a word has an unexpected "-ery" added to it, I love it.
Douchebaggery.

And so on.
Get back to work, Octo!
