Don't ask. It's unexplainable. I'm just curious (kind of an inner circle thing)
I'm not even angry... I'm being so sincere right now.
Even though you broke my heart.
And killed me... And tore me to pieces.
And threw every piece into a fire.

I figured banana was going to be the most popular... one of my friends just won three bucks... unless anyone else cares to vote?
I'm not even angry... I'm being so sincere right now.
Even though you broke my heart.
And killed me... And tore me to pieces.
And threw every piece into a fire.

I voted for Chrismahanakwanza. You can chant it with a tune, and it's cool to combine words like that! :xmas_cool:

Chrismahanakwanza. Because any word made up by a cell phone company has to be cool.

Recalcitrant.
I have no idea what it means, but as others said before me, it just sounds cool.
