Share some words you can't live without (ie, use a lot)
Apparently, I can't live without "apparently." Also, I use untold numbers of "untold numbers." And you?

1. Unfortunately, I can't think of any word I overuse more than

7. The phrase "beneath contempt" never quite seems to leave my head.
Seems to have started about the same time. I wonder why.

15. "skeevy"
I just love it.

(First heard Robin Williams use it in "Survivors", which might have been his first movie, along with the line "Doesn't that make your sphincter tingle with delight?")

30. I use "apparently" a lot as well.
But I swear I use "motherfucker" a ton! Every time I tell a story, or explain what happened I drop the MF bomb about thirty times. It's sad and awesome at the same time.

39. Hideous
My cousin once said, "When I think of your family, I think of the word hideous."

She didn't mean we were hideous, she meant we use the word all the time. Or maybe she thinks we're hideous?
