  What's your favourite word?

  because of another thread i got curious about whether many people have a favourite word.

  i've never really gotten over my first love, which was supercalifragilisticexpialidocious (seems like there ought to be a comma in there somewhere).

  but that's not really a word.

  every few nights my daughter calls me in and says she's worried about the crocodile coming to get her.

  i know some people on here have small children (she's three), what do you say to them?

  i tell her there's not really any crocodiles, but it doesn't seem to help.

  this article by seymour herschel in the new yorker says that the abuse has been going on for some time, was in the process of being investigated when it was exposed, and involves far more people than the six now being tried.

  something that is really vile but i am wondering if i'll acquire a taste for it.

  i went into a very posh gourmet chocolate shop today, and feeling cheap got the cheapest chocolate in the shop.

  it was still expensive.

  i just wanted to introduce myself before launching myself at the various threads.

  i left when i was 14 and that was 30 years ago, i thought i was well over it but when i read some of the postings on here they really got to me.

  there are definitely long term effects.
