Is There a Word....

[vegasnative]

Here is one for all you "sneakers" fans, in the UK they call them "trainers", now that does make me giggle!

The other word that makes me giggle is~doily~, not sure if I am spelling it right, but you know you would put a pretty doily on your dresser or under the lamp.

One word I have a hard time pronouncing is "Worcestershire" sauce. Really, who can say Worcestershire?

slacks. come on now people, they're pants... (but the word slacks cracks me up!)

poop. ok, juvenile I know, but a funny word, and it makes me laugh every time...


ok, i'm done

OMG! i KNOW this is going to sound REALLY gross BUT for years now anytime someone will asks how something tastes (food!) DH, me and my cousin all have the same answer--- "it tastes like poop!"

sounds gross just writing it-- but i laugh everytime i say it-- or hear it! whats even funnier is when an unsuspecting person hears the answer of course they dont "get it"

i have another one---

i was just having a convo with DH and, of course, being overly dramatic and the word Deluge (as in flood) slipped out and all i could do is crack up after it came out, it was so unsuspected.....and i had to come share the word with all of you!

I have another one-- but this one was actully made up this weekend-

SNORGLE!

me DH and his family were down the shore this weekend and my BIL was a bit tipsy. we had to share a room with him and his wife and BIL was pretending to be asleep and "pretending" to be snoring- very loudly (he kept it up for about 10 minutes- so i thought for sure he was sleeping) all of a sudden he started giggling and of course got me, DH and SIL giggling and then BIL asked DH if she 'SNORGLES" and do (I) get mad at him for SNORGLING!

we just all busted out laughing and i said is that a cross between a snore and a (insert loud snore noise here!)

BIL apologized for keeping us up and i said- thats OK- i would have never heard the word "snorgle" if you had just had gone and fallen asleep!

i give permission to anyone who would like to use the word......SNORGLE!

Everytime I hear it, I think about that old Muppet song

" Mahna Mahna
Do doo be-do-do
Mahna Mahna
Do do-do do
Mahna Mahna
Do doo be-do-do be-do-do be-do-do be-do-do-doodle do do do-doo do!"

OMG! Now I will be singing that for at least a week!!! All I have to do is say mahna mahna and either my husband or son will ALWAYS chime in with the rest!! Sorry, OT I know...Its just it always makes me smile when I hear it.

When my mom says "That really IRK'S me" The word Irk for some reason cracks me up!

I love to say "irk", but it's because it reminds me of my now grown nephew. When he was 5yo and living in Germany, I visited my sister and family. We toured a lot of castles and one of them had a restaurant in it as a money maker. My nephew took one look at that restaurant in the castle and said how it "irked him that a castle had a restaurant". It was such a funny thing for a 5yo to say. So every time I use the word I have a 20 year flashback.
