Don't say that!

Whole lot going on this week that kept me from much thinking in general. So, I thought that I would simply discuss some of the worst words in the English language in this week's Deep Thoughts Thursday with The Boozy Weathergirl (and I am skipping the "M" word, because been there, done that.)

1

Pus - just saying this word makes me want to gag. Really, who came up with this to describe something?

2

Along those lines - Oozing. I just feel green (word mentioned above) doing (this word) out of an open wound. And I barf a little in my mouth.

3

Phlegm - OK, I literally think all of the words that gross me out are onomatopoeia. Can't even with this one.

4

Curd - this makes me sad, because it can describe cheese, and I love cheese. I even love poutine, but without these things on it, because I can't even say the word to order them.

5

Blob - This one hits too close to home, because I embody the word. I still don't have to like it.

6

Fester - I'll just let that one sit there for a bit...(see what I did there?)

7

Panties - this one is particularly painful in the Northeastern accent. How does this describe the article of clothing? Does a person pant while staring at them, waiting to remove them? Or more like in my case, do you pant because it's a struggle to get your legs in the holes?

8

Smear - note to all here - there is no "ch" in this word. Drives me fucking insane when someone says they're going to "schmear" some butta on something.

9

Secrete - akin to word number 2, and something you don't look forward to finding in word number 7 (with -tion added to the end), different shit, same reaction.

10

Slurp - even someone who drinks as much as I do does not want to hear another person drinking like this. So, stop it. Please.

Other words that make my list are spooge, queef, mucus, ointment, squirt and squelch. Obviously, I could never work in the medical field. Unless, of course, the prescriptions were in the form of cocktails. So, here is your Rx for this week...
