Dangerous.

It just sounds cool, at least until it is used to death. That is Dangerous.

I don't feel the need to use any particular word, though I AM prone to, as TVtropes would say, Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness.

Also, what is your avatar?
So you like to use long words and or be long winded. I tend to be long winded on the Escapist.

As for my avatar, it is from an episode of the show Scrubs. It is from season 4 episode 6 called "My Cake". The janitor gets a crane and starts messing with Dr.Kelso's mind.

Here is the scene, I wished to include the whole scene in my Gif, but it would be just too big for the 200Kb memory limit on avatars.
lol

I would say like, counts. Like to use it all the time when describing things.

Now I have to ask, what is zetta?

Zetta- (symbol Z) is a prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of 1021 or 1000000000000000000000. (wikipedia but i check it on some other reputable dictionary sites). However, in the context I use it, it means hella. made famous by Sho Minamimoto of The world ends with you. He's OBSESSED with numbers.

Here's a pic of him

I've been saying "Grrrrrrr." a lot lately, if you can consider that a word.

However. My teachers in High School would take points off of my papers if I used the word more than 3 times. I lost quite a few cumulative points that way.

I use to say "hero" or "bro" alot at the end of my sentences, but now I've stopped that because I didn't really notice how stupid it sounded..

I don't know; I consider it more sound than a word.

Oh, back in the day, I hated my high school composition class. My teacher took off points if we used the phrase "There are" and the word "Because", even if they were used correctly. Plus, she had a really stupid mentality that long sentences were better than short sentences. She told us that we should have a minimum of 20 words in a sentence. The hilarious thing is that when I went to my first university, my composition professor there asked my why I always wrote such long sentences. I explained why, and he told me that that teacher was crazy.

Don't be a hero. I'm going to make this post and you aren't going to stop me.

I am addicted to Floccinoccinihillipillification (I probably spelt it wrong, but i cant spell) I use it in conversation when ever applicable, even if it floccinoccinihillipillifies my arguement.
Here is the spelling, floccinaucinihilipilification.

From, Dictionary.com. For those of you that want to know what it means:

(?noun
Rare. the estimation of something as valueless (encountered mainly as an example of one of the longest words in the English language).)
Thanks, I know what it means but I just cant spell.

Yikes, where to begin...

Er, I use "wicked" too much lately. Like wicked cool, wicked awesome, etc. it's a wicked bad habit. That, and rad. Lots of "rad." I think rad is a totally underused word. Unless I'm using it in speech. Then rad might be my new epic. I say it a lot.

Also, like. I like using like. Like is a fun word.
What gets really wicked crazy, is when I can jam them all together. It's, like, wicked rad to talk like that. Or not. But I do. [sub][sub]Leave me alone!!!![/sub][/sub]


That, or the phrase "I know, right?!" in a sort-of sarcastic-but-not-really context. It's an easy out for silly statements by others when you don't know what else to say...

'Though'. I am addicted to the word, 'though'. I always reread everything to make sure it hasn't slipped into every other sentence. Especially when I am explaining something to someone else in text. I even add it a lot when speaking to others. Though not as much lately. >_> I'm a recovering ,'though' addict. (Yes, I used it as much as possible here, THOUGH I tried not to.) *runs away cackling*
