Favorite WORD

juicymango by juicymangoOG 2003 · Mar 12, 2004 · 741 views

Do you have a favorite word??

My favorite word EVERRRRRRR is 'espionage'

closely followed by 'tsunami'

and also one of my favorite words is "VACATION" only because of what it means basically, it doesn't really sound cool or anything...

But Espionage and Tsunami, they rool. They're SUCH cool words yet I don't really get to hear them often

There are certain "spy-type" movies that use the word "espionage" a lot and I get extremely happy when I hear it.

What's your favorite word neighba?

My word is PINCHED. That's right P-I-N-C-H-E-D it works on so many levels. Example #1 If there's sum chick cuttin' me serious 'tude I'm just like "She was PINCHED!"
Example #2 Say this dude is just lookin' like hard times I'm like "Awww he just looks PINCHED." I luv it it just works for me :-P

You completely read my mind...why does she like to snoop around the shower stall after you get out? Her paws get wet.

forrestina #31.2 forrestinaOG 2002

ha mom says that AND she calls us a motley crew sometimes

forrestina #30 forrestinaOG 2002

totally!

aviator #29 aviatorOG 2004

my favorite word is fish :)

specialk #28 specialkOG 2003

I don't know if it's my favorite, but I sure say "like" a lot. Like, every other word....hehehehe.

sunshyne #28.1 sunshyneOG 2004

been there. occasionally, still there.

perrin #28.2 perrinOG 2004

It's wierd but like a lot of people use like.

sunshyne #27 sunshyneOG 2004

lovely...i say that a lot. an inordinate amount. its bc i loathe the word nice sooo much. what a blah word...nice. blah.

fivezero #27.1 fivezeroOG 2003

wow. those words don't mean what they used to. at least not to me. Nice is when you're buzzing. Lovely is when you're in the bag. Funny you said those two.

sunshyne #27.1.1 sunshyneOG 2004

preceding nice by feelin changes things. i will give you that. as a phrase, i like it. feelin nice. it works.

*confused* whats in the bag?

fivezero #27.1.1.1 fivezeroOG 2003

drunk!

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

blootered!

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004

ive never heard that before. interesting. means something very different to me. but if thats the common conception of the word, its good to know.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

what does it mean to you, summer?

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004

to me it means being exceedingly pleased and relaxed. so pleased and relaxed that you want to sigh. thats lovely.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

mmm. similar.

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004

how is that similar?! that is not drunk. to me, drunk and content are not the same thing at all.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 sunshyne

uh, dissimilar?

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004 fivezero

unless somehow you think being drunk is pleasant?

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 sunshyne

hahaha! you do know that is entirely relative, don't you?

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004 fivezero

relative to what?

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 sunshyne

relative to what people personally deem lovely!

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004 fivezero

oh yes......next!

perrin #27.2 perrinOG 2004

Oh man your sure not going to like me I say NICE! all the time. lol. I think I even use it a lot in ASL. lol

sunshyne #27.2.1 sunshyneOG 2004

i generally dont dislike someone bc of their vocabulary. i just find many words to be more descriptive than nice. like if someone says to me: nice skirt. what does that mean? pretty, modest, clean...what?

nice in asl? lemme think back...thats like smoothing out your palm, right? in what context are you using it?

perrin #27.2.1.1 perrinOG 2004

As in when someone tells you something good has happened to them and you say. NICE! lol

perrin perrinOG 2004

A good example. Somone tells you they just started a study. I would respond. NICE! lol

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004

like an exclamation then. thats not so bad. i meant using it as an adjective. thats what i dont like.

perrin perrinOG 2004

oh ok. That's good then. :)

perrin perrinOG 2004

I think I'm going to be paranoid about using nice now. lol

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004

please dont. you cant be worried about what every person thinks about what you say, or youd never speak. anyway, it wasnt meant to be a dig. it was totally an excuse for my corny non-stop use of lovely.

perrin perrinOG 2004

I'll try not to be but I can make no guarantees. lol

perrin #27.2.1.2 perrinOG 2004

Yeah that's it you slide your one palm over the other. Interestingly enough the sign for nice is the same sign for clean.

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004

sweet! i totally remembered that from 10 years ago!

perrin perrinOG 2004

Well it seems you have a good memory then. Mine on the other hand is horrible.

iwz iwz

no pun intended, right? ;)

perrin perrinOG 2004

Hm. I don't see the pun?

perrin perrinOG 2004

Unless your referring to my saying on the other hand and we were talking about ASL?

iwz iwz perrin

haha yeah

perrin perrinOG 2004 iwz

Oh. Well I can honestly say there was no pun intended. lol

fivezero #26 fivezeroOG 2003

one of my favorite words is "regardless." it's synonymous with "shut up, what you say means nothing." vulva is a weird word.

hunkpapap #25 hunkpapapOG 2003

Subterfuge is one of mine, and coquettish or coquette is another..

sunshyne #24 sunshyneOG 2004

fabulous (hmm what else do i say?...frest? help a sister out)

forrestina #24.1 forrestinaOG 2002

sorry sum i can't do this on call

starshiptrooper #23 starshiptrooperOG 2003

ANOMOLY (too much Star Trek)

perrin #23.1 perrinOG 2004

Futile .

starshiptrooper #23.1.1 starshiptrooperOG 2003

resistence is futile.

perrin #23.1.1.1 perrinOG 2004

yes precisely what I was thinking. lol

hunkpapap #23.2 hunkpapapOG 2003

interestingly enough an anomaly is defined as one who is peculiar, irregular, abnormal, or difficult to classify...

tinser #22 tinserOG 2002

Serendipity...i was watching the movie the other night and i remembered what a cool word it is

T
#22.1 toxicgirlOG 2003

tinser #22.1.1 tinserOG 2002

juicymango #22.1.1.1 juicymangoOG 2003

perrin #22.2 perrinOG 2004

Mean-The faculty of making fortunate discoveries by accident.
very interesting indeed.

tinser #22.2.1 tinserOG 2002

yeah, its such a cool sounding word, and an even cooler meaning.

perrin #22.2.1.1 perrinOG 2004

Yeah I'm going to have to remember this word and what it means. One I defenitly want to start using.

fivezero #21 fivezeroOG 2003

something, support, stuff, sugar, scam

fivezero #21.1 fivezeroOG 2003

ilikebirds #21.1.1 ilikebirdsOG 2002 stupid

fivezero #21.1.1.1 fivezeroOG 2003 stupid

toxicgirlOG 2003

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

people say it all the time. hey, look! a bird...

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

hey, i love you, thai. but you're fruity.

ilikebirds #20 ilikebirdsOG 2002

flaccid. that hot dog is not stiff, it's flaccid.
especially when you pronounce it FLAK-SID.

starshiptrooper #20.1 starshiptrooperOG 2003

perrin #18 perrinOG 2004

DAH!
OH SNAP!(I know I know it's lame but I still think it's funny)
WAPAH(chandler from friends)

socalgal #18.1 socalgalOG 2003

LOL "Oh Snap" is pretty funny to me.....

perrin #18.1.1 perrinOG 2004

I think so too. Some of my friends though seem to think it's out played and needs to die. So I use it all the time. It drives some of them nuts when I use it.

modestjesse #18.1.1.1 modestjesseOG 2004

I don't think its out played, its just old. I remember saying it all the time then it died out. Then I saw Zoolander and couldn't stop laughing because I couldn't beleive he said it bringing it back. Now that was funny!

starshiptrooper starshiptrooperOG 2003

Zoolander was a FUNNY movie. oh snap, its off topic!!

yodasucka yodasuckaOG 2003

when i worked at PacSun.. i said "o snap" once and NEVER lived it down... they all looked at me like i was crazy and was like "did u REALLY just say that?" haha

perrin #18.2 perrinOG 2004

Oh yeah another one I don't like saying but seem to say all the time is
Dude. It's really starting to annoy me how much I say it. I can't seem to help it. It just kind of slips out. I don't even have any friends who really say it so I can't figure out where I picked it up from.

socalgal #18.2.1 socalgalOG 2003

DUDE....LOL thats such a fun word....I call my mom dude sometimes....she gets a kick out of it

we use it here ALL the time!!!

perrin #18.2.1.1 perrinOG 2004

Well then all I need to start using is totally and rad then I'll be all set. lol

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

oh totally!!!!!!!!

skaorsk8 #18.2.2 skaorsk8OG 2002

i say "dude" a lot. seriously, it's just something i do. i try not to do it on business appointments, and at the doors in service.

although the other day i'm hanging out iwth this little kid in my hall (he's 5) and we're playing some kind of legos, and every other word out of his mouth was "dude!"

socalgal #18.2.2.1 socalgalOG 2003

i'm stoked we can talk "normal" here...if we use dude, howzit, right on...its not a problem.

I said "right on" a week ago in service after the girl took the mags.....ggos thing it was a young girl....

perrin perrinOG 2004

What about sweetness?

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

??? we use "SWEEEEET" sometimes

perrin perrinOG 2004

I'm not really sure where I pulled that from it just popped into my head. lol

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

you're the HG......LOL

perrin perrinOG 2004

Yeah that's right so you must use is then because I said you do. :-P

perrin #18.3 perrinOG 2004

Ok so today I just realised I already do say totally all the time. lol
So now all I have to get in the habit of saying is Rad.

socalgal #18.3.1 socalgalOG 2003

WOOHOOOOO!!!! that is SO stinken funny!!! see you were totally making fun of me!

perrin #18.3.1.1 perrinOG 2004

Well it seems I was pretty much just making fun of myself. lol
Let me just say as sad as this is that's not my first time doing that. lol

skaorsk8 #17 skaorsk8OG 2002

i like "facade". i just learned how this word was spelled. i thought it was "pseud". like psudeonym. but different. turns out i was very wrong. i was trying to explain the word to beachbum to spell it correctly, so i spelled it sounded out - f-s-o-d. fortunately she knew what i meant.
