Curiosity Strikes Again

Sailor Saturn · Post by **Sailor Saturn** » Wed Sep 05, 2001 4:00 pm

Okay, I've gotten ridiculously curious again. I have no idea what brought this subject up, but here goes.

What's your favorite word?

Edit: Oops, I forgot to post what my favorite word is. My favorite word is...Gigglemonkey? Nah....my favorite word is one I made up accidentally sometime last year. "cfocolate syrup" Okay, so it's two words. Do I look like I care?

Er, Folken Fanel? Okay, not only is that the name of a character, but it's two words! Dang.

Er, perhaps a word I use? *thinks* Coolnessity, swiffy? That's two again. Dang again.

Oh well. Deal with it.

@Random, is that some kind of swear word?

My favourite word: Juxtapose.

2nd favourite: Mezzanin

Can anyone spot the musicallyy related connection?

No, I'm just far too obsessed with the series Escaflowne for my own good.

Iv'e got to wonder if that is also a swear word

I will assume for the record it is anime, it doesn't sound much like a 'Hills Street Blues' episode

Super Furries and Massive Attack, and incidentally it's Mezzanine and not one of their best albums...

I'm still thinking about my favourite word...

Oh, you meant a connection between the two words?

In that case I have no idea about someone threatening to kill them...

My favorite word is in Russian, it's pronounced like "nietchevo'" and it used as "as usual", like in "How are you?" "As usual, nothing special", but it actually means nothing.

This way of using the word was developed during the Stalin Terror, when people didn't dare say there were bad or felt bad. Instead, they said "nothing".

I like "Da" the Russia word for yes.

I also discombobulate
