    The fact that you think people use "big" words in an effort to make you feel inferior says way more about you than it ever will about them.

    I love words. I love reading about words, learning new words and learning the etymology of words.

    Did you just call the OP an unhelpful imbecile?

    I am distracted by the blinding light emanating from your groinal region. I think I need to report this for the way it makes me feel. Also, is that heaven?

    Interestingly enough, I've had this pic up for 3 weeks and you're the first to comment on the fact that my vag is glowing.

    I'm not sure what bothers me more. The fact this thread exists or that I even took the time to read it.

    ^^ This. Don't complain about the unfamiliar; take action to learn more about it.

    GET! OUT!

    First thing I saw. I suppose that says more about me than big words.

    Telling people that isocaloric diets that contain a higher % of carbohydrates absolutely do not cause more fat gain would be counter to the sugar is the debbil hypothesis so many scientists and users promote here...

    Thank you for the translation. I got bored after the first sentence.

    Some people naturally have an expanded vocabulary. It doesnt infer an attempt at intimidation

    Hippopotamus is a big word. It has many letters and many syllables. I feel like we don't talk enough about hippopotamuses around here.
    I'm with you...I find it exceedingly difficult to have a serious hippopotamus conversation these days. I blame the internet.

    C'est hypocrite.

    I learned that in 4th grade and this is the first time I have ever seen anyone but me or someone I went to grade school with reference it.

    It amuses me that some people here claim to have huge vocabularies yet don't seem to understand the meanings of the words 'sarcasm' and 'humour'.

    I apologize if I offended anyone. I was just trying to be funny with my warped sense of humor!
