Lapidary. It's funny and fun to say.

Cav, your ode to diarrhea, especially placed next to your avatar, with you standing in front of the blackboard (and the fact that you are a chef), has me just a little concerned. You are otherwise such a nice man, that this aberration is real cause for concern.

A nice long rest might be called for. Just step back from the blackboard, put the marker down carefully and slowly drive home. Everything will be better when you've had some time to recover and evacuate all those nasty thoughts.

Heh heh, actually Diane, that was not my original work, but a quote from a band I heard on the radio. As for funny English words.....I've always been fond of euglena.

Anything with "licker" at the end is funny.


I really like to throw "gooch" in with this formula.

Do place names count? How about Lake Titicaca in Peru?

If we're stuck with English, I like those weird word pairs--willy nilly, hanky panky, nitty gritty,

Titicaca is very funny, but it has been ruined for me. A few years ago I was in a bad mood, and some girls were laughing very loudly about that word, so I asked them to "SHUT UP!!" and they got mad, we argued. So that word just stirs up bad memories.
