"Esbórnia" That'll do for me

P.S. I spent a week in Slavador de Bahia many years ago. Home of Olodum.

Off the top of the head: "pill." Like when you are dealing with somebody at the other end of the phone who is a real creep (nice word too). For me it was a banker today. He was so disagreable and full of himself, the only word that came to mind while talking to this guy was...."what a pill!!!!" Not a fav. but very useful in one's head. I'll dig down deeper for better ones. If good words come at the right moment (in one's mind)....they become your favourite word? "This prick was such a pill!!!!" I felf better afterwards.

I would throw up if I heard that.

quagmire is a kind of "interesting" word.

Not a patch on quagga, though…

upchuck (after "the pill?")
