lite

Light--20% fewer letters, same great pronunciation!

Used to describe a new product or trend that is healthier, cheaper, or wussier (but rarely all three) than the original.

See Miller Lite, Kazaa Lite, lite rock.

In its proper use, lite should appear AFTER the noun it is modifying. This gives the term an appropriately quirky feel.

pulchritudinous

Despite all evidence to the contrary, pulchritudinous is used to describe a person of great physical attractiveness. No one is quite sure why this is, because the word *sounds* like something unpleasant on the bottom of your shoe.

This is possibly due tothe fact that it shares sounds with words such as sepulchre, repulsive, cretin, lewd, and pus.

It's a good word to use when you'd like someone to *think* you're insulting them.

It is in no way synonymous with lugubriousness. But it should be.
My, but you're looking pulchritudinous today!

Firt kid: You're so pulchritudinous.
Second kid: Mooooooooom, Jimmy's calling me names!
First kid: *righteously indignant* I gave you a compliment!
