My little sister was watching a show on PBS the other morning, and at the end the characters asked the audience what their favorite word was.

What was the first word that popped in my head?

"F*@k." Yes. I am not kidding.

Thinking about it, I also like the word "gauche."

Ironic?

Do you have a favorite word?

Oxymoron, it's just fun.
That could be because I never matured and "moron" makes me chuckle.

Ooh, I love oxymoron, for the same immature reasons. :D

I also love the word 'mercurial', probably because I learned it in first grade but no-one else ever seems to know what it means. Using words no-one else knows makes me feel smart. :D

Oh, I forgot "ambidextrous." I love using it even at inappropriate times since I learned it in the sixth grade :D

Correctly used by yours truly when discussing a chore assignment at the age of 5.

I still had to do the chore, FWIW.
