What is your favourite word or phrase? Be it long, short, common, rare or just plain weird. I like p45 - if anyone else knows its full version and arachibutyrophobia - fear of peanut butter sticking to the roof of one's mouth.:eek:

I don't have a favourite word, but if I did, it would involve the letter 'l', the letter 'b' and the letter 'm'. They're just funny letters.

confuzzled is a typical northern English combination and contraction of confused and puzzled, I think it was first used by Lewis Carrol (a Good Cheshire Lad)

It's a toss up between "kawinkydink" and the phrase "miffed muff".

Used in a sentence: "That Katie sure has a smelly cooter"

Err, that's coincidence, yeah? And what the hell does miffed muff mean?

Err, that's coincidence, yeah? And what the hell does miffed muff mean?

Coincidence, yes. Miffed muff? Let's see, how do I explain this. Miffed is like upset and muff is a vagina. I guess it's basically a pissed off woman.

Futtocks is also a great one, and of course bollocks.

The latin word "publicus", say it quickly in front of your mum. Go on.

When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse...

Ah yes, I am a Coldplay fan - and proud of it ;)
