Something overheard in New Brunswick the other night: "we were so shit-housed, I can't believe we built the entire gazebo . . . and we started at like ten at night!"-- I note this for two reasons 1) I've never heard the words "shit-housed" and "gazebo" in the same sentence 2) gazebo is on my short list of least favorite words, along with "bonanza" and "jubilee."
You also don't like the word "chafe."
ReplyDeletethat's true-- that makes the list as well, and i don't really like to say "meringue" or "souffle" or "marzipan."
