Melancholy. It just sounds so nice. It rolls off the tongue so well and it’s just a beautiful word.
Not necessarily words, but a simple phrase: “I like you.”
I think people should say that to each other more.
“I fink you freaky, and I like you a lot…”
I like u
Thy will be done!
Thank you. It’s important to tell the people you like that you like them.
Immanentize the eschaton. :)
I dont understand a word you just said, boy
I’m the sort of weirdo who uses all kinds of stilted vocabulary in not-terribly-formal situation. Just a few words that I use regularly that I remember getting shit for using:
- Ostensibly
- Indeed
- Escarpment
- Thrice
I do use “chagrin” not infrequently. I can’t think of a time when I’ve used the word “reify”, but it feels like the sort of word I’d use.
I use ostensibly a lot lately. Seems like an appropriate word for our times.
I had to look up escarpment. How do you regularly have the opportunity to use that word?
Last time I remember getting shit for using it, I was streaming on Twitch and randomly forgot the word “cliff”. Heh.
The viewers (all two of them, lol) responded with "indubitibly"s and the “like a sir” rage faces. Lol.
That was probably… 3 years ago? I’m sure I’ve used it at least a few times since then, but I can’t remember a specific time aside from talking about the aforementioned incident.
Pfftt… “Aforementioned.” Well la-di-da.
Overmorrow. No more of this “the day after tomorrow” nonsense.
And by extension, words like overWednesday, for the second Wednesday from now. Or overweek and overmonth.

It has a nice ring to it.
No
The most important of all time. Seriously
Penultimate is a useful word I never use in speaking.
