Words you like



Borrowed from/stolen from/inspired by Kevin Wolf

Words you like. Words you like to use. Words that make you giggle when you encounter them. Words that dance on your tongue. Words you use like tabasco. Words you whip out on special occasions. Words you wish you could get away with dropping into everyday conversation. Words that just look so right. Words you use when no other words will do. Words that make you feel smart, sexy, powerful, sophisticated, authentic, mysterious. Sesquipedalian words. Words that can sink ships.


Consider yourself tagged.
