Moist
I can’t even believe I just typed that and got the chills.
That is a great band!Moist
I can’t even believe I just typed that and got the chills.
I was just looking this up:
Dr. Paul Thibodeau from Oberlin College surveyed 2,500 people and found that 18% of them hated the word "moist." He hypothesized that this strong reaction was down to three reasons: the way the word sounds, its association with bodily functions, and because it has become such a widely disliked word.
He discovered that the majority of people who hated the word "moist" were highly educated young women, and the reasoning in the latter two hypotheses were correct.
So while people were fine with the words "foist" and "rejoiced," they couldn't deal with the mental images that "moist" conjured.
"People who were averse to 'moist' also responded similarly to words such as 'phlegm,' and 'vomit,' leading us to believe that the disgust is related in part to the association with bodily functions," he explained on Gizmodo.
