a pretty pointless blog entry!

I had my 6 month check up at a hopsital in Kent on Monday, and the good news is that although I'll always have to suffer with my digestion-related ailments, it can be controlled with medication, and the consultant was happy to discharge me, so I can be monitored by local GP's.

I was telling one of my buddies, and I suddenly realised how much I dislike the word "discharge". I'm also not keen on the words "moist" "pus" "misogynist" or "salubrious"

However, I do like the words "melancholy" "mellifluous" "benevolent" and "malevolent"

I do not have the faintest idea why!

The word discharge is as horrible as mucus and I can't say either without feeling like I'm swearing.

Melancholy is indeed a lovely word, it kind of sounds what it means, if that makes any sence. You can't beat bollocks though. I love buttocks - it's all round and bouncy!

love, the slightly less than erudite Mrs M. ~ X ~

Thank GAWD someone feels the same as me!

I love bollocks too (this is descending into an "ooooo matron" type thread)!!

And, not meaning to sound slightly weird, but I also like the word turd!

oh how liberating it is to admit to that!!!!

One of my favourites was my word of the day last Tuesday as I was feeling full of it. It's a much under-used word but I'm doing my best to change that. SPUNK.

Ruthie said...

Interesting choice Whoppy!

Tell me, is this spunk as in the "american" meaning, or the British "yoof" culture meaning?

LMAO @ turd - how about twat, as in, 'look at him, the dozy twat' .

Whoppy's S word I could not say :O

Love & in the mood for an oooo matron moment and not sure I want to know what kind of erm, THAT thing that Whoppy was feeling full of. Mrs M ~ X ~

Twat is a great word too! I also like Nobba, but I'm not sure that's in the Oxford dictionary - might be in the urban one though!

Spunk, according to Roger's Profanisaurus:
1. Semen, seed.
2. Spirit, pluck.
3. [Aus] Good looking man, dish, hunk.
4. Tinder made from fungus.
5. [v] To ejizzulate, to spooge, esp ~up.

I, of course, meant it in the Cholmondley-Warner sense.

Whoppy, to quote one of Mrs M's fave words!

"Bollox"

;o)

Whoppy reminded me of another word that cracks me up - flange. I'd love to go to the deli counter and ask for a slice of flange. I can't say I use the word everyday like, but it is funny.

Lowering the tone even more, Mrs M ~ X ~

Ruthie said...

Great word!!

Hmmmm, but that sort of reminds me of another word that I don't like - "thrush"

*shudder*

The words " pierced nipple" sets my teeth on edge.
other words I don't like:
plops, penis, dribble, snot.
I do like the word "twat" very satisfying to say. In the right context (ie when I say it) the c word is very good.

Ruthie said...

Ahhh, I like the word "plops" - always makes me want to giggle!

Oh, and I also like the word "chuckle"

As for the C-word - that's my favourite swear word

The C word? Blimey ladies that is too strong for me, I salute you!

Love & covering my ears up, Mrs M ~ X ~

Well, us girlies each have one....!
