"Schlieren" - impossible to say and not sound drunk.
"Edifice" - innocuous word for large building but sounds like someone having some kind of angry, pissed off episode.
"Fisticuffs" - pretentious toffs squaring up for a slapping/hair-pulling/impotent fight.

| | Re: Funny word of the day картинки...my 1st Russian word. And that's like, whoooot, more than 20yrs ago, ugh.
And then 1st one in German, lochkreissäge. Both are pretty useless but still make me laugh.

The Gemeinde name Bubikon always has me in stitches.
Otherwise I am amused by practically anything in Spanish: they are invariably cute.

Quaffing is the only way to drink! Also, when quaffing, it is mandatory to have at least 15% spillage ...
