Words you like to say.

I like saying the word Marinara. ..."please pass the marinara sauce". Marinara.

 

[duhvoodooman]

Honest to God, Tone--you start the weirdest threads!

Marinara, huh? O-o-o-o-kay....

 

[marnold]

I like saying words that sound funny but are not inherently funny e.g. pants, slacks, trousers, Wankel rotary engine

 

[Katastrophe]

My favorite word in Spanish is cacahuate. It sounds like yer cussin' but yer only saying, "peanut."

[Spudman]

Snack, snack, snack, snack, snack, snack, snack, snack, snack, snack, snack, snack, snack.

It's just a strange word. Do I like saying it? Sure when there are snacks about.

I have a favorite word to use but the built in editor on this site won't let me say it here. It starts with an f, ends with uck and it isn't firetruck.

I'm laughing so hard, I can't even think of a word. :bravo: :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

A quick survey of my Spanish speaking friends reveals 2 things.

1. Cacahuate doesn't really sound like a swear word to the Spanish speakers I know.
2. It's not used in Chile.

I guess it's only funny in English


I had some strange looks when I said "hey Cacahuarte sounds like a swear word". Mostly as a result of those strange looks though, I'm adopting "Cacahuate" as my new default profanity.

I have lots of words I like to say and most of them are foreign curses I've picked up as a result of working in a company that has a very diverse cultures as part of it's workforce. The guy that swears the most is Greek, so I often find myself swearing at people in Greek. I used to work with guys from Columbia and still work with guys from Chile so my Spanish cursin' is pretty solid too. I'm also adept at making lewd comments about women in Yugoslavian, and I can yell a few phrases in Arabic.

I guess it's a bit like the "whats ur favourite guitar solo" too many to list!!

One of my favourite non-offensive words is "izquierda" which I beleive is Spanish for "left". Spanish is such a cool sounding language.

Moist . . . mostly because it grosses out my sister in law and that is fun.

Spam is another one. I can think of more.

Flatulence is another good one. Hey, I think we need a farty smiley! LOL! I said fart. LOL! :rotflmao:

Can you tell I enjoyed Bevis and Butthead?! :rotflmao:

 

[duhvoodooman]

Now I feel bad for taking a poke at Tone. The rest of you are just as weird as he is. Maybe weirder....

 

[oldguy]

If you can muster a look of horror while staring over the shoulder of someone facing you......."LOOK OU....!" is kinda funny, too. 'Specially if you duck or drop to the ground as you scream it........
Only good on construction sites around heavy equipment when there's no zero tolerance policy regarding horseplay, tho................just sayin'.........

I resemble that remark.

Ok that was corny. I may be weird but at least I look spiffy in my Santa hat. :tongue:

Ohhh now this is interesting. My niece also grosses out (yes those are her exact words) on the word moist. What are the odds on that?

There's a Hebrew word that's spelled shafuch (emphasis on the second syllable and the "ch" is one of those sounds like you're trying to hock up a loogie). You probably can guess how that word got used.

Another was the German phrase (Jimi, please correct my spelling) "Ich bin fertig damit" which means "I am finished with that." Damit is pronounced "dah MIT" but you can bet that we liked to end sentences that way.

I also agree with SVL that "moist" is a splendid word. If you say it right, it's almost onomatopoeic (another wonderful word).

Thats just evil.

I almost got booted out of one of my engineering courses because I decided to use my own methods of stopping the class clown from his favourite trick. Waiting until I (and others) were arms deep in high voltage electronic equipment and standing behind us and clapping loudly making us jump. The third time he did it to me, and the third time I got scrapes on my arms from rapidly ripping them out of the chassis I'm working on I just spun around and punched him in the middle of the face. Strange how he didn't find a busted nose all that funny. The dangerous "jokes" stopped after that. Call me crazy, but working on live equipment carrying lethal voltages is something I took pretty seriously.

OT but another more harmless joke we liked to use before end of term breaks was to "rig" the test benches.

All the work benches at the school were wired to a main emergency power cutoff for safety reasons. The teachers used them for convenience, as they left the room they'd just flick the switch and kill all power, and vice versa when they walked in. We'd pick the locks on the lab doors during the short afternoon coffee break and quickly and quietly insert low voltage electrolytic caps in the power sockets on the benches, 47uf 25V were great for this, and leave, locking the door.

When the switch was flicked on you had smelly little firecrackers exploding all over the lab! Wunderbar!

 

[SuperSwede]

"Syphilis" is a nice word, very useful too.

 

[Robert]

I like to say "******". ******, ******, ****** - and that is what I am on my guitar videos.

I also like the Swedish word "huvvaligen" - it's a northern dialect and a word that SS probably doesn't use...?

 

[sunvalleylaw]

I like to say when I am all amphed up and ready to ski: Güten Morgen, Wie gehts mit dir? to whomever I meet; Lift attendants, other ski coaches/instructors, kids, parents, just to say good morning and see if people wake up a little if they hear something a bit different.

I also agree with SVL that "moist" is a splendid word.

"Splendid" is also a splendid word. :AOK:

 

[Bloozcat]

Prevaricate...

A guy at work once told a story that not even a fool would have believed. After he was through, I said to him, "Wow, that's about the most artful prevarication I think I've ever heard." He just beamed and said, "Thank you".

Perhaps. "Cacahuate" won't sound like a curse word to a native speaker, because all they're thing about is "what that crazy dude is talking about peanuts for."

Half of the word is "caca," which is a Spanish description of fecal material, and a word that is bandied about quite a bit here, since we are close to Mexico.

So, saying "cacahuate" to a non - Spanish speaking person here would lead them to think that you've just uttered a curse word (because 'caca' is part of the word), when in fact you've just spoken about a tasty snack.

Use it with pride, mi amigo, and marvel at the sideways looks you will get!

Another word that is funny to use is "masticate," or "mastication."

It is the act of chewing.

 

[Robert]

Kat, better watch the form of "chewing", or you'll go blind!
