This:

gave me the idea that we need more collection threads.

So please state the most awesome word that you know of, and why it should be used more often.

One of the best and most underused words is 'Forsooth'

Another good one is

'Schadenfreude'

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schadenfreude

Anthropomorphic Fallacy.

Because I can tell my cat really likes that phrase.

Polymath (sounds way cooler than Renaissance Man)

Rhododendron!

lortnoc ni ma I

pedantic = a word that needs to be used alot more!


and my favorite

hootananny!

I worked pedantry into another thread, do I win a prize?

How about "wherewithal"

"provides buscuit as prize!!"

to be fair pedantic can be used to describe loads of threads in some areas on the forums lol

Obfuscation.

Idiosyncrasy

Hooligan

Cad

and of course Pedantic. Wonderful word!
