More Introductory post fun! The same art teacher that asked about pets has now asked "What is your favorite and least favorite word." I made something up because I didn't want to sound like I was making something up. My favorite word (right now) is onomatopoeia, because it's super fun to say. And it's a long complicated word for a seriously simple concept. But unless you know me it sounds like I just picked a word out of the dictionary. So because I'd just finished watching the end of Pride and Prejudice (the Keira Knightley one) I chose incandescent. Also fun to say. And for some reason it makes me think of candles in mason jars.

I also couldn't say my actual least favorite word because it's not fit for polite company, though most people don't realize it. Let's just say it's a commonly used slang for breast. And starts with a T. I just hate the word. I hate the way it sounds and it has always seemed somehow slightly derogatory. Like it's shameful. I don't know, okay, it's a thing for me.
Anyway. Can't put that in a classroom discussion board. So, I choose the word squelch. Because, c'mon. It sounds gross. Nothing good ever squelches.

So I posted these words and slightly toned down reasons why I liked them. And what do my classmates choose? Hate because "no one should every use that word" and taxes. And the favorites? Love and freedom. Clearly I overthought this.
