I have an unreasonable fondness for the unreasonably long word "floccinaucinihilipilification," which means "the act or habit of defining something as worthless." I probably first heard the word over 20 years ago, and only now does this come to me:

Floccinaucinihilipilification? That's what Beavis and Butt-Head do. "This sucks, change it!"

Forty-one years on and I can still surprise myself. Go me!
