  • If I could strike one word from the English language it would be this. Flanked with the more formal but perfectly acceptable "breasts" on one side, and the equally sophomoric "tits" on the other, what point is there for this word, which is simultaneously vulgar as well as vague due to its homonyms?

  • I like boobs. It's gentler than tits and friendlier than breasts. I certainly don't find it vulgar, or vague - what homonyms?

  • I use boobs quite often. I mean, the word "boobs." Though I happen to also have a pair.

  • Boobs, yes. Tits, no. Breasts, meh...to clinical.

  • I like boobs & as a word too. It's difficult finding enough good words to describe those puppies.

  • What on earth does chained_bear do with a pair of ignorant or foolish persons? Are they dangling jesters in the Curt Court of the Ursine Queen?

  • I'm with sushiaddict. If we struck boobs (the word) we could get rid of moobs, which would be a good thing.

  • Bilby, that's excellent! If there isn't already a Curt Court of the Ursine Queen, I'm going to start one right now!

    Yes. I shall be the Standard-Bearer for Her Shackled Majesty. Other available positions may be found here.

  • I've always wanted to be a majordomo - but I only want the title, not the responsibility. I want to be a majordomo with the responsibilites of a cup-bearer.

  • Someone else can be groom of the stool.

  • I'm a big fan of boobs. Wait, what does this have to do with Wordie? Oh, you mean the word boobs.

  • Boobs is for boobs. Too babytalk for me. Like pee and poop, always jarring when said by an adult and not addressed to a toddler. Gotta go bye-bye now.

    May 14, 2008

  • Oooh! I'll be Her Fettered Majesty's Falconer! :-)

  • "boobs" can be used as a synonym for a human's breasts(typically womens) used mostly amonst youth. A polite alternate to "bad words" such as "jugs" or "tits".
