    "But.............."

    Because in general anything that comes after that word in a sentence is generally not complimentary or positive

    I think most of the words here are marvellous. My pick would be pulchritudinous, a horrible, ungainly word which somehow means 'beautiful'

    F@gg0t... actually hate even writing that- not just cos it sounds horrible but it's also used as a cheap and hurtful insult.

    How strange, I was actually having a conversation about this is the pub last night. Smear is one of the ugliest we came up with.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,461 ✭✭✭--Kaiser--


    Are people picking these words based on their meaning or their actual sound? From a quick perusal I'm assuming the former


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 221 ✭✭qwerty93


    C UNT is a horrible sounding word
