Post subject:  Inherently Funny Words

Yeah. There are a lot of words out there that can cause people to laugh at the mere mention of it. You look at them and say the word and they crack up. What are the words that YOU think are funny.

In no particular order, some of my favorites include:

Pants
Waffle
Pudding
Duck
Pickle
Underpants
Socks
Pie

Personally, I think "Pants" is the funniest word ever.

Does this include nonsense words? Oh, well, my short list:

Hat (said with a little weight on the H sound and as wide and flat an "a" sound one can make)
Doomafloggy
Persimmons
Chrysanthemums
Fhqwhgads
Verbose

Well, I have one...but I can't post it here.

But yeah. "Duck" and "pants" are hilarious words.

I remember someone saying in...I think it was a Futurama commentary...that the word "underpants" is inherently funnier than "underwear".

He was right.

And a few more...

Naked
Midget
Pockets

"Lugubrious." "Gubernatorial." And "nominee." I once mentioned the last one to a guy I knew, and he immediately burst into an impromptu rap song consisting only of the word "nominee."

I've seen people crack up at "pineapple", "fork", and "snarkily". Personally, I find "cow" hilarious in many contexts.

FISH.

Try saying "I kill you with FISH!" without cracking up!

"Shoo!" is a funny word, and so is "sleek." But those both have to do with semi-obscure inside jokes. But they still sound amusing if you say them right. Oh, and "DONUT!"

Six. Say it in a reeeeaaaally authoritarian voice, like you're leading some sort of military exercise with a bunch of six-year-olds, and you'll see.
