    3 people already voted for moist. Still within the crazyfication factor.

    How else are you supposed to describe a perfect sponge cake?

    All of the other words meaning "containing some moisture but not enough to be wet" are even worse, cake-wise

    Damp
    Clammy
    Sweaty

    Mmm, carve me up a slice of that lovely damp Victoria sponge, yummy

    Also I'm just assuming that anybody that votes for it is stating that their favorite word is "Other"

    I always hate picking 'other' in polls but my real answer here would be 'miffed'

    I periodically pull an obscure word out of the dark recesses of my mind and seamlessly use it in a sentence, only realizing afterwards that it's not a normal word. This often prompts me to Google it and make sure it actually means what I think it means, which usually comes back as "eh, close enough."

    Today that word is 'profligacy.'

    I can't help say the vote before reading the post:

    Moist shitbird. Moist fuckwit

    Those are both thoroughly unpleasant, but I particularly don't want to encounter a moist shitbird.

    I don't ever use it, and I guess looking it up, that's the uncommon way to spell it. But it's my go-to for favorite words. Because it's so rarely used.

    "Quench" is a good one. Feels like squeezing the lime into an ice-cold G&T.

    I love how often I hear quench while watching Forged in Fire. Has to be at least 20 times per episode

    Apocrypha is a good word if you’re feeling too fancy to say bullshit.
