Funny Words...
 
Why is it that some words, just make you smile or laugh when you hear them said...?

The word 'Flange' always gets me.....

"Funny" or rather, unusual words I have come across doing crosswords this year:

bragaddocio - reminds me of Bison...boastful bordering on arrogant..but nevertheless harmless.

cunctation - reminds me of BangleMan...frequent delays...will he or won't he go to quiz night with Cloggies...and if he does..then its just happenstance.

eschatology - Beardman - concern with death, judgement and final destiny of the soul and humankind.

ineluctable - reminds me of Eva and her posts...unable to be resisted or avoided..didn't she win most intellectual BE poster?

perspicacious - reminds me of The Dean..having a ready insight into and understanding of things
