Funny you should mention giblet...the word I hate MORE THAN ANY OTHER WORD (saying a lot) is niblet. Whatever marketing genius came up with those corn niblets -- I'd like to throttle. Seriously...if anyone ever wanted to get state secrets out of me (I have so many), they should tie me to a chair and say "niblet" like, twice. Done. I'm out. I've blabbed.
Re: the spork post. I'm not at all surprised that we are sympatico on this.
I am, however, surprised and a not a little impressed that you remembered posting about that nearly four and a half years ago. Meanwhile, I can't remember what I had for lunch last Thursday....
I was not going to mention this, but since there's no new post to distract me I can't contain myself.
Where does "dooblet" fit into the equation? I mean, you might hate it because of the "blet" part, but it involves an accidental poop discharge and passing gas, so there is a chance you'd love that.
Dilettard - It's like you're inside my head. I do love "dooblet" but based on definition alone. If it meant "lacy doily" or something, it would go on the "hate" list.

Had you never heard the word goblet before?

GIBLET!GIBLET!GIBLET!GIBLET!GIBLET!
GIBLET!GIBLET!GIBLET!GIBLET!GIBLET!

What if we changed it to GIMLET...maybe it's the letter B that you find offensive...?

While you're throttling, can you throw a few jabs at the one who came up with "spork"? An offense to flatware the world over, I tell you.
Ri -- Funny you should mention the whole "spork" thing:

I'm gonna buy you a grill that spells out Li'l Niblet for xmas.
Don't worry, I'll wait until you've had many gimlets to give it to you. Gimlets pair well with giblet niblets.

Ri - this blog is my baby. I remember first posts like I remember first steps.
Also, it involves a lot of poop and sometimes keeps me awake at night.
Have I taken that metaphor far enough?

Oh...and I hate the word "doily."
