  • Word Nonsense

    Alright, so for reasons that I don't really feel like explaining at 2:00am, I'm looking for a word that invokes a "powerful" kind of feeling. A word that, to you, as an individual, strikes you as being a significant or memorable word. A word that leaves an impression, or seems otherwise epic.

    For example, the words "dawn", "genesis", and "invoke" resonate for me. Does anyone have words that instill a similar feeling? For unspecified reasons, I'd love to hear them.

    Yeah. Random. I know.

      These were two actual words that I heard coming out of people... mostly when they were half asleep ... both denied saying it afterward, despite witnesses

      Something that resonates for me a and makes me smile is Woodpecker.... but that's mostly because a few years ago the Saskatchewan government bought 10 000 wooden phalluses for schools for teaching sex education (putting on condoms)... we had talked about that all night, and then at the end, someone started talking about things that woke them up in the morning... someone mentioned a woodpecker, and I laughed for about 10 minutes - my sides hurt for 2 days.

                Epistemology. I've always liked that word.

                  ...Woah! For entirely unrelated reasons, thank you for giving me epistemology. I was having an argument with someone the other day, and I was trying so hard to think of that word, and failed.

                  God damnit. Thank you.

                  And I've decided my favourite words are:

                  -Epoch
                  -Ethos
                  -Paragon

                  That is all.

                      Thanks for the effort, Arnold.

                      And while I'm talking to you, change your forum signature. It sounds like one of those freaking ad-campaigns for the US Military.
