There are too, too many lovely-sounding words in the english language to have a constant favourite....
but 'meritritious' & 'coprolalia' tickle me today.

Meretricious is a good choice
From the Latin 'Metetrix', or prostitute. It's quite a nice way of calling someone a whore without them knowing, I find.

I did not know that.
...and if we're talking words, then "egregious" I love, as it can mean:
- Shockingly bad or
- Remarkably good.
which is ace.

Always reminds me of that bit in The League of Gentlemen
"Would you say you had an egregious personality?"

Clip, please.
I think I watched all of that, but that rings no bells.

Had a quick look but couldn't find it before.
It's one of Pauline's exchanges with Ross, where they're doing a mock job interview, and he asks if they can switch places and he'll be the interviewer, and then asks her questions she doesn't understand.
Would look a bit harder for it, but I'm at work and ostensibly quite busy.
Ostensibly also being a good word...
