Uncomfy Words

There are some words that simply don't sound comfy. I'm talking about those words that make you feel like you stepped on a wet spot on the kitchen floor in your favorite argile socks.

These words couldn't care less what plans you had, they are more concerned with what havoc they can wreak on society. Take a gander below:

Moist

This is an understatement regarding your favorite argyle socks.

Bologna

While some folks may enjoy this mystery meat, many despise it for it's spongey quality and overall terrible name. Italy rarely does wrong, but they messed up this time

Slit

This word is so sharp it could bisect a sheet of loose leaf paper. Don't ever use it unless you are in a dire situation.

Squeamish

This word makes me shrivel. I imagine spoiled milk that has curdled and gone off the deep end.

Licorice

The English language is pretty wild, not sure how this spelling can result in a pronunciation "lick-o-rush", but when you think of it like that, it makes me wonder what I am in such a rush to lick... certainly not black licorice.

Excrete

Not only is this word a chore to pronounce, but it also makes me think of things that ooze undesirably. No thanks.

Sausage

Makes me think of this....
Sosig
...enough said.

Creamy

Somewhere in between wet and soft lies creamy and that's just not great.

Ointment

You may be noticing a theme.

Belch

... more to come.
