    I know this is an old thread now, and it's been put to bed and all.. But I just noticed a word I wanted to share with everyone. On an Air compressor that works standing up and laying down, it's got "Verti-Zontal" on the side.. thought that was interesting.

    I would have to say that mine is "MOIST" for a most twisted reason.. every time I say it, I find yet another person who's grossed out by it.

    I'm just a twisted individual I guess, but I also like the F-bomb, gotta admit. When your trying to get a whole lot of ticked off out in a hurry it does a great job :)

    Even though my kids are both adults now, my favorite word remains "dad". It's good to be the dad!

    hmm, favorite word.

    its kinda ordinary, but i love it when u get in the right situation, maybe people have been discussin for a while - and u just say 'chill' .... sometimes they lose it, sometimes they just laugh, its interesting - but damn its hard to nail down a word, i can't even think of most ones i use on a regular basis

    Mine is hemidemisemiquaver (in music, 1/64 of a note.) Not because it's a beautiful word but because it makes me smile when I think of what such a pointlessly long word it is, for what it means. :)
