What's the funniest word in the English language?

Grumble · 02-02-2006, 07:03 AM

"Discombobulated" is pretty funny. I've been meaning to work that into a sentence for a while.

"Hullabaloo" is quite good as well, but I think it's just fun to say, rather than actually funny. I've just realised I've never actually said it out loud, though, until just now after I typed it. It was quite enjoyable.

Kumquat. My older brother used to occasionally scream this randomly while out in public and it never failed to amuse.

bamboozle is a strong contender i'd say

and impeachment...i mean, where does this come form? have former presidents been hunted out of the white house with over ripe southern fruits?

Yeah, bamboozle is one of those words that just wouldn't work in a serious sentence without sounding ridiculous.

This isn't really about a funny word, but for some reason last week I thought it would be hilarious to buy something from a store, and when the cashier gave me my change, to say, in a really serious voice, "Thanks a lot. It's been a fucking pleasure". I don't know why I thought that was so funny. I didn't do it, though, anyway, so it's even less funny.

Crapulence is a pretty good one.
Dangle is one of my favorites as it's fun to say and onomonopoetic as well!
