Title is pretty descriptive, dontcha think? What are your favourite words? In terms of usage and funnyness factor? On the latter, discombobulate and cabal.
On the former, procrastination, necessarily, peculiar, whereas, and not really a word but I really like as opposed to. Also indefatigable, concatinate, jesticulate, audacious, and increminate.
All that I survey, I could easily destroy. From time to time, it is important to remind these small creatures of the true extent of my power.

I like Charlie's words, plus a bunch that relate to the human body, because that's what drives me. I won't go into detail but yeah.

Strange choices, are you basing on the way they sound, their meanings, or both?

It's funny, I'm pretty sure there are some words I love to use but I can't think of them right now. I think I like ones that are big but rol nicely off the tongue.

Όταν θα κοιτάς την θάλασσα
Χωρίς να το θέλεις, θα βλέπεις εμένα
Και τα μάτια σου θα ‘ναι θλιμμένα
Όταν θα ξυπνάς στον ύπνο σου
Χωρίς να το θέλεις, θα σκέφτεσαι εμένα
Και θα νιώθεις μεγάλο κενό

I know a bit about german pronounciation though.

One of the words I would love to use more is scum. It makes me laugh whenever I hear it that's why.

I kind of find it funny how people overuse the words literally, genuinely, legit.
Especially in sentences like bro, I'm so genuinely tired, I mean, why would it be not genuine to feel that way?
I literally ate breakfast a few minutes ago. Well, how else woul you eat it, metaphorically? XD
No examples for legit come to mind now, but it really is being overused in my circles.

As for literally I get it, everyone in my circle uses it. To be fair though they usually do it for a good reason, like if it makes sense to use it.

In my circle genuinely is used responsibly, thankfully. Its used as a modifier to express very strong, extreme and real emotions about something. I didn't know people still use legit though.
I'm adding bomb/bombed, but as a verb. I don't know why it sounds so unserious to me.
They're going to bomb the city tomorrow.

Bomb is confusing. People say it's the bomb, meaning something good, but yet a comic can bomb, fail, when his routine produces no laughter and people boo him. Modern times I reckon.

I kind of like the word because it begins and ends with the same letter. I sort of like words that do that, plus I like palindromes.

It's same with peak. Peak can mean both good and bad in the same context.

#17

just searched up the meaning of this word, but me and my scottish friends often try to say pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis.
Vox tech, trust us.

Aj, are you doing this intentionally? Just because if yes, it's not funny, just saying. It makes you look illiterate and when I see such people like you, I pretty much understand the european stereotype which states americans are stupid and illiterate.
