George:I'd say I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I'm not. I excel at not giving a shit. Experience has taught me that interest begets expectation, and expectation beget disappointment, so the key to avoiding disappointment is to avoid interest. A equals B equals C Equals A, or whatever. I also don't have a lot of interest in being a good person or a bad person. From what I can tell, either way, you're screwed. Bad people are punished by society's laws, and good people are punished by Murphy's Law

I love too many words to mention.  Dictionary obsessed since I could read.
I also love the sound or the visual I get from them...most times totally unrelated to the word.
Same with peoples names.

the words mentioned in this thread.
