How could I have forgotten serendipidy. I remember now. I always wanted to name two dogs serendipidy and soliloquy.

I just took one look at him and said "Harry". Sometimes they name themselves. :)

... which include "mad cow" disease. Not a pleasant subject, but a wonderful group of words to say out loud. :-)

The Mrs. slammed the car door with a thudding onomatopoeia at the corner of Petunia and Begonia where she demanded that the Mr. immediately remove the dingleberry from his lapel and never see that trollop Ms. Innuendo again.

Scatological jokes, though scintillating, can generate syncopation of brain waves leading to explosions of mirth, or alternately lugubrious response in ethnocentric individuals surrounded by ergonomic furniture.

I like the word that I was told is the longest word in the English language, "antidisestablishmentarianism". It really rolls off your tongue. ;)

I agree--very cool sounding phrase (transmissable is so-so as a word sound, but the other two make great sounds), though semantically depressing.

 

I have a few....

Discombobulate (I just love being confused and spend a large majority of my life in this state! And I honestly say this one frequently. Sometimes people don't understand it when I say, "Lately, I've been feeling discombobulated.")

Bamboozled (something about the ooz part gets to me)

Perturbed (It just rolls off your tongue... Let's say this one out loud.... Perturbed...)

Peruse (I had an English teacher in high school who would only use peruse instead of read and I just loved the way she said it. pe---ruuuuse....)
