I'll add the word 'coffee' too, just because it's one of my favorite things.

maybe you should add 'mocha java' to your repertoire, too.

Ah, somebody else I like. (Can't not like another coffee connoisseur.) Unfortunately, all I have here is plain old Nescafé.

There is, I confess, a definite attraction to a double o. Oh yes. And, as I see, a preference toward words of Northern European origin, rather than Latinate derivation.

Oh, yeah! Lou lou reminded me.

I also like the word "fuck."

"Cunt," too, is an absolutely vile word that must be used for no apparent reason.

I started using "cunt" a while back simply because the shock value meant it could be used quite hilariously. Now it's slipped into my repertoire and is used more often than "fuck." I really must try to cut back.

The nicest sounding word is "garnier fructis" (shampoo brand). The coolest phrase, in my opinion, is "Stand by to repel boarders!"

"Cunt" is probably the only word in the English language that shocks me every time I hear it. I prefer to say "cunny." It's friendlier, and funnier.

My other favourites are:

ephemeral
plethora
indigent (I learned this just today when I read "The Pearl")
haphazardly
lethargic
knoll
rucksack
gangly

Oh, I almost forgot: alright. Technically it's not a word. But it will be. I'll see to that.

shoobawokie - because i evented it and if you're ever needing something that nobody else has you can say it and nobody can question its originality plus it sums up everything i am. don't ask questions just accept.

also i appreciate the words 'monkey pies and cheese' said in unison at any moment that is deemed way too dull.

buttocks - is also valuable for its humorous content

hmmm i'm sure there is more but i'll leave it at that;

or this;

Shoobawokie your buttocks smell like monkeys, pies and cheese.

Quiche comes to mind but only because I just had one with eggs, monkey and cheese, or was it bacon. Damn the short term memory. Before anyone dogs saint I am sure she realizes she invented it.

I like using "cunt" as well, not where my kiddies are, but certainly in polite company and at my mothers dinner parties.

My mother says to me, "Louise, why would you use such a vile word when there are so many beautiful ones in the English langauge?"

I do it to irritate her. And because it's a wonderfully explicit word.
