All the _og words. It's easy to see what sounds cavepeople liked! Also catgut is a funny one. Hugs, Devlyn

Opisthotonos is my favorite word to say. Funny, it doesn't come up much.

Since being on Susan's, I've learned I like "Piffle!", said with a snort.

I also like "shindig", as in, "Let's get this shindig on the road!"
...I think for most of us it is a futile effort to try and put this genie back in the bottle once she has tasted freedom...

A disdainful snort!

I had to look that one up.

Sounds painful.

Always wondered about catgut, it was usually made from sheep gut.
And that's not piffle

Hmm fiddling with yourself again.

Not healthy for marble, it might make you suffer retinohypothalamic deterioration. And a sore wrist

The funny thing about marble genitalia is you can keep it up for two thousand years, no problem. But along comes a little earthquake, and it can fall right off!

Ossicles.
Epitoke.
Graptolite.
Sipunculan.

Biology is full of them.

I wrote a term paper about graptolites for my invertebrate paleontology class
~ 30 years ago!

The prof liked my illustrations so much (hand drawn and inked from the lab specimens), he kept copies of them. I don't think he was quite as impressed with the text of the paper...

Verisimilitude.

I like that word.

Also - masticate. I like that purely because of one time I said that enjoying a good meal involves mastication, the person I was speaking to told me, in all seriousness, that it would make me go blind.

Penectomy as in Appendectomy... somewhat further down though  >:-)

or how about tit-cuffs as in braseriers, not to be mixed up with hand-cuffs...

There is no reason that they can not go together.
