I try to use the words I like, even if people think I am strange.

Here is one I like to use:  Juxtaposition.   ;D

I did not know these two:  Limerence.   Steatopygia.   I love learning new words to use.  8)

Poop shute would be better, although not as elegant, when written.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

Thank you. That's what I was trying for but I was mentally trying to force a relation to the word shuttle, but they are not related.

You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.

That's the same in Swedish except it's spelled with a "k" in the beginning. I like that word too.
