This is a snapshot of who I am. Things just randomly pop into my head.

I was listening to the song "I feel you" by Depeche Mode and one of the verses goes "you take me to, and lead me through oblivion" ... and i started to think - why don't we use "oblivion" anymore ? Its a great word.

Oblivion
Gargantuan ( Kill Bill Vol 2 )
Donnybrook
Brouhaha

I can probably think of some more...

EDIT - Ive always liked the word "slobber-knocker"
