how is this post spam goddamnit 4chan accept my damn post and stop giving me the business you damn robot girl this is not /r9k/ From Middle English sprenten, from Old English *sprentan, from Proto-Germanic *sprantijaną, causative of Proto-Germanic *sprintaną (“to jump up; bounce”), from Proto-Indo-European *sprend-, *sprendʰ- (“to flinch; jump”), from Proto-Indo-European *sper- (“to twitch; fidget; flinch; jump; be quick”). Cognate with Middle High German sprenzen (“to sprinkle; splash”), Swedish spritta (“to startle”), Icelandic spretta (“to spring forth; emerge; arise; develop”).

Holy fuck you're all like women and children. If you need someone to give you validation through a word you like, you're some special kind of lonely and self-loathing.
Take care of yourselves you fucking pussies and stop seeking validation just because you never get it from yourself.

There's a good theory I found a while back in this article: http://thoughtcatalog.com/nico-lang/2013/09/moist-and-28-other-gross-sounding-english-words-that-everyone-hates/ . It asserts that use of hard abrasive letters like hard C's and G's tend to make distasteful sounds. I think they can be applied when creating rhythm, however. Burying them in softer sounding letters like L and I can be used to concoct exciting and pleasantly sounding words.
