Silly words you've heard others say

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

I used to carpool to school with a guy who said "Hairlarious!" My sister is always saying something is "rigoddamndiculous."

[LeftyFingerPop]

1. I used to know a guy who could not say....

"specifically". He would say "Pacifically"

I pacifically told you not to do that.

Let me be pacific here...

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

2. Did he have a reverse lisp or something?

That's like saying "Pasghetti!" instead of "Spaghetti!"

[LeftyFingerPop]

3. No that's the thing....

he just had a problem with that one word.

[johnnie]

6. My boss at work does that

He is my friggin' *boss* and doesn't know the right word. Sometimes things aren't fair..lol

[Maddy McCall]

4. When MMjr was little, he said "tenchapur."

Mom, I think I'm running fever, check my tenchapur.

And he said bwowers for flowers.

I loved his little silly mixed-up words.

[ZombieNixon]

5. Funteresting.

"Fun and interesting."

Also, "ricockulous" (as opposed to "ridiculous".) Yes, it's obscene.

[tjwmason]

26. Herk nt

[fizzgig]

29. i routinely use that one

[IzaSparrow]

7. i've heard...

"dickass" as in "hey, dickass, get over here!"

[Lex]

8. I recently heard a loan officer say "decisioning . . . "

"We do all the decisioning on the loans in our local office."

[grannylib]

9. A friend of mine trained himself to say "Horseshit" every time he

sneezed...
"Spectaclear" is our family inside joke, about Chimpy not being able to say "nuclear"

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

15. I heard Specter say "nukular" today on the Senate floor

EGAD. I REFUSE TO ASSIMILATE!!!

[Merrick]

10. When I was small, I'd say Beckus...

as in, it's 6 o'clock saturday morning and my cartoons are starting. Where's my beckus?!

and Up-sup. I don't like 7-Up anymore, though.

[Forkboy]

11. That's just igniotic.

[buddhamama]

19. i haven't heard the word igniotic spoken

but i've seen it written. :)

[Forkboy]

30. I said it to Donnie a couple weeks ago, and it made the chalkboard.

And I think his Myspace.

[auntAgonist]

12. a man I work with says

flustrating, instead of frustrating. And he says people learn by "rope" as opposed to rote.

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

14. Give him enough rope to hang himself, eh?

[KitchenWitch]

13. Instead of catepiller, my daughter says callipitter

[Connonym]

16. we still call hamburgers "hangabers" because of the way my daughter pronounced it

when she was wee. It just caught on and became one of those family things.

[murielm99]

17. We do that too!

Hangabers and pasghetti.

[TZ]

18. my younger sister for the longest time

Thought fingers ang thumb were Thingers and thumb......:)

[PeaceNikki]

20. The "rigoddamndiculous" is a John Wayneism.

He was speaking to college ROTC students.

Classic!

[kentauros]

21. Eddie Izzard says "Fantabulous!" :)

My past-wife would also call me "Larb" as a pet name. We later found out that it's a form of Thai grain salad. I would sometimes call her "sallad" since that's her name backwards, so a bit of weird synchronicities going on :D

I still like "Fantabulous", though ;)

[Mad_Dem_X]

22. "supposebly"

I don't know where I first heard it, but I catch myself saying it once in a while. I go to say "Supposedly," and it comes out "Supposebly."

[Road Scholar]

23. The kids used to call the windsheild wipers "flip-wipers". lol

[Richardo]

24. One guy I worked with looked at some post-storm footage and remarked how much 'derbis' there was

It took me a number of minutes to figure out he meant 'debris' :dunce:

[Richardo]

27. ...another guy could not say 'theoretically'. He says 'theory-etically'

It did not help that he was a managing partner in our consulting firm and said it in front of clients :eyes:

[KatyMan]

25. I can't pronounce

baccaruda...

BA-BA-RA-RA-CU-CU-DA-DA!

For elucidation: http://peelout.typepad.com/peel_out/2006/11/i_cant_pronounc.html

[Iggo]

28. "Bonerific" and "Cocktastic."

I don't know what either one means.

[EstimatedProphet]

31. I can't tell you how many people mispronounce "statistics"

As a statistician, it is annoying to hear people call me a statician, or say I do satistics.

[On the Road]

32. When I Went to Middle School,

in a small town in Eastern North Carolina, my classmates used to say "onliest" instead of "only." That always tickled me.

Plus "chuck" or "chunk" instead of "toss." Plus a lot of other things I wouldn't repeat here,

[unpossibles]

33. I say "Scalarious" for things scary and funny, such as Dick Cheney

also, any word sounds better with a curse in the middle of it, such as fanfuckintastic.

I also like using "Slowding" for those websites which take forever to load.

[mitchum]

34. "Flustrated"...which I thought was absolutely wonderful

[KamaAina]

35. Misunderestimated

Hispanically, etc., etc. ad nauseam. :puke:
