words i think are fun...

in the words of my friend Jenna Diorio: "If you are going to insult someone, why use such bland vocabulary as the usual five swearwords. I major in English so I can insult people creatively." Lately, I've been thinking about some words or phrases I think are truly hilarious. Here's a short list:

**ignoramus**

definition: (acc. to urban dictionary): An offensive term that deliberately insults somebody's level of intelligence or education. 


use: "that girl got put into remedial potions bc she's a complete ignoramus."


reasons i love it: 


1. it sounds like an ignorant snuffalufagous...or however you spell it. or someone who ignores a man named amos.
2. it's fairly insulting, but come now, would you not laugh hysterically if someone called you an ignoramus?
3. i kind of imagine that this is a silly dinosaur or something.


**imbecile**


definition: more intelligent than an idiot but less intelligent than a moron.


use: hello, people, have you ever seen 101 dalmatians??

(which reminds me of another fantastic phrase: crazy woman driver!!!)

reasons i love it:

1. it's used so often in disney movies!!

2. when i was little, i thought that "imbus" could be used as a short-version of "imbecile."

**asinine**

definition: absurd or dumb

use: "thinking that you are able to flap your arms and fly is an asinine idea."

reasons i love it:

1. it's like ass with a twist.

2. does there need to be another reason?

**toot**

definition: synonym for fart

use: beans beans, the magical fruit, the more you eat, the more you toot. the more you toot, the better you feel so eat ur beans with every meal!!

reasons i love it:

1. it's a silly attempt at making farts sound polite.

2. it's funny when kids say it. it's even funnier when adults say it.

**bodaggit**

definition: something you may call Uncle Rico

use: get off of me, you bodaggit

reasons i love it:

1. we used it all the time in college. in fact, i'm not sure i've ever called my friend, shannon, by her real name. i think i've only ever called her bodaggit.

2. you have to say it in a man voice. otherwise, you just sound like you don't know what you're talking about.

**fugly**

definition: freaking ugly!!

use: that girl wasn't just ugly, she was fuuuuggglly!!!

reasons i love it:

1. i always imagine that it is a combination of furry and ugly. so like the bearded lady:

2. i feel like you have to follow the word fugly with some snapping action and putting a hand on the hip.

the list could go on and on, but i'll cut it short there. what are your favorite silly words and phrases??
