I love words. Well, some words.
I’m selective.
For instance, I don’t like the words “pretty” and “much.” Especially when they are put together: “I’m pretty much finished.” Ugh. Makes me want to bite the person in the inner thigh. “I pretty much bit you.”
On the other hand, I like the words “insatiable” and “actually.” Especially when they are put together, in any order. Mmm. Makes me want to bite the person in the inner thigh. In a good way.
But, the words I truly love are made-up ones. Particularly the words defined by Urban Dictionary.
Here’s a sampling of my favorites:
Asshat: One who has their head up their ass. Thus wearing their ass as a hat.
Brosama Bin Ladin: A best friend that you never see. He’s always hiding or just at home.
