Bad is bad, and awful as more bad, and terrible is still badder. Go past unbearable, slip around horrific and atrocious (expialidocious). Long gone are crummy, raunchy, and dreadful. An inch beyond abominable, you’re at the Heinous. There is nothing in the world more heinous than a heinous thing. And while so many words have [...]

Cock
To date, I’ve posted about sex, coitus, vag, vagina, and hated words blowjob and pornography. Now it’s time to talk about cock. For my money, there is no better word in English, and maybe in all Christendom, to describe any part of anyone’s genitals, be they man, woman, or gender-neutral. Cocks are powerful. Cocks are large. [...]
Hipster
We’re doing this. If those pricks at WordsIHate can do irony I can surely pull off a hipster post. There’s no point in working to define this word. Everyone has a slightly different interpretation of what a hipster is and it’s been talked to death. But this is precisely why I love this word. I love to [...]
Be Well
A few of my friends have asked me what they should say instead of “have a good one”, since now I’ve totally ruined it for them, along with everything else they say. And in spite of my suggestion we go back to saying “good evening” on parting, I wanted something with a little more heft, [...]
Vag
Why didn’t I think of this? More importantly, why did nobody think of this sooner? Surely this abridged version of “vagina” has been around for years, but somehow I’ve only been hearing it in the last year or two. Where has it been all my life? “Vag” is a slightly derogatory term for the vagina, [...]
Chyme
“Chyme” is cool in two directions. First is its spelling and pronunciation. “Chyme” is pronounced like “kime”. The hard “K” sound of “ch” is fucking cool. To pronounce that “ch” like “K” makes it sound serious. This is a word not to be fucked with. Same goes for “cholera” and “chable char”. The hard “ch” [...]
Soggy, Loathsome, and Detestable
Individually, these words are nothing special. But combined in this way, they are a powerful force. Loathsome and detestable have similar meanings, but this expression is describing something SO loathsome and SO detestable that you must double up. As if being loathsome and detestable aren’t bad enough, this thing is also soggy. Being moist is [...]
Pandemonium
Pandemonium is not chaos. Chaos might be understood, even accepted, but pandemonium will not let you rest, and leaves you confused and shellshocked. Pandemonium is chaos with a greater element of danger and fear. It is a total lack of order, decorum, and ethics. While chaos can describe the seemingly random actions of a set [...]
