I love words so much, bros. The way they unfold, their dizzying mechanics, their magical combinations. It is truly a grand blessing to be fortunate enough to play with them in our own free time.
I hope that /lit/, despite all the cynicisim that's been permeating the board recently, still maintains a genuine sense of wonder and deep appreciation for words.

I HATE words. Words are gay and retarded.
"Words are a medium that reduces reality to abstraction for transmission to our reason, and in their power to corrode reality inevitably lurks the danger that the words themselves will be corroded too. It might be more appropriate, in fact, to liken their action to that of excess stomach fluids that digest and gradually eat away the stomach itself."

Is it not remarkable, too, the sheer power that words hold? How one is able to sway another’s mind just purely with logically ordered and aesthetically pleasing sounds from their mouths, conveying ideas in such a way as to convince one of something different? Truly remarkable.

I love words as well, OP.
Here are some words which I have enjoyed recently:
>Dalliances
>Propriety
>Undulated
>Spittle
>Epitaph

Here's a big stupid word which I admire:
>Haecceity

Included is an image for your amusement.

Words are nothing special, they're merely the vehicle that provides the least resistance towards the conveyance of an end to their means. They're no more or less useful than an abstract equation or a beautiful painting, for that matter. A picture is worth a thousand words, to put in a word. An intuition, manifest. A mere extension.
