During a meeting this week, I had the distinct pleasure of using the word 'specificity'. It's a nice word to pronounce, and it's also one of those words that makes you sound dead clever, which is why it made me quite moist to use it.

I also quite like the word 'cunt' for its brutal simplicity; it practically stabs its way into a conversation.

Do you have any favourite words? Onomatopoeic words are obviously appealing, so the more bizarre the reason for your enjoyment of your chosen word(s), the better. Gratuitous and liberal use of profanities is encouraged.

That's a beauty. Got to use that one more often.

I also like 'hubbub'.
