    people use this one wrong all the time and it drives me nuts.

    forte. It's pronounced like "fort" when it is in relation to a persons strength. Everyone always pronounces it "Fortay" which is wrong. That is a musical command which means "play louder". So for any of you driving a Kia Forte. You are driving a Kia "Play Louder".

    One day I was trying to explain to a friend that a toboggan is a sled, and not a hat. When I googled it for her.....this is what I found:

    "a sexual position in which the male is ridding the female near the stairs and proceeds to knock her arms out from under her and ride her down the stairs
    i tobogganed that bitch all the way down the stairs last night, where we found her parents"

    for the love of god can a mod change the title of this thread? the missing word really bothers me lol.

    I enjoy the word discombobulated. Probably because I often feel discombobulated.

    I also enjoy the word awry. It rolls off the tongue. I love saying in very stressful moments, "everything is going horribly awry!" because as soon as you say it, everyone laughs and the stress dissipates.

    dissipate is a good one too.


    dude, i dunno. I've always pronounced it fortAY. but perhaps pronounciation is not my forte :)

    I love the word guffaw, I use it all the time. I even had a teacher tell me to stop making up words and I was like bitch look that shit up in the dictionary. Actually, it was more like "It's in the dictionary, let me show you" but still I told that hoe
