Words I Enjoy Saying, #1

Babaganouj1

Tazer2

1. Babaganoush or Babaganoosh are also accepted spellings, but I prefer it with a "j" because it captures the "zhh" sound. And it looks more exotic. I don't like how it tastes, but I am always tempted to order it. I think it would make an excellent name for a pet.

2. Apparently "Taser" is the proper spelling. But I prefer the unauthorized "z" instead. I like how the comedian Dane Cook says, "If guys come near us, we'll Tazer them. No guys."

(ooh, a purple tazer!)
