'diction' funnily enough is one of my favorite words, but the other definition that means 'choice of vocabulary'

another good one is 'fungible' which has terrible aesthetic quality

I love accusing people of being rotten whatevers

Imagery wise I think it is very powerful and cuts to the core of a very existential form of negativity. It invokes death and decay and is a great way to tell a cunt you don't think much of their being.

strengths because it has the most consonants in an row in english language. I like the word panopticon not just because it sounds cool but I have taken psychedelics literally hundreds of times to the point I think I am partially paranoid schizophrenic now but I don't let it bother me.

I like the words "retarded", "nigger" and "sage" because they very accurately describe my attitude towards OP and this thread in a strictly non-aesthetic way.

Pardon? I like the first three for their relationship to the ancient theory of humors; the fourth is just ugly, but I like it; and the fifth, though interesting to look at, is what it is.
I can't help it if certain other presumptious faggots 'like' them or think theyre pretty.
