I've always had an admiration for good use of euphemism - packaging (in words) not-so-pleasant things or situations in a cute manner such that makes it look less embarrasing or unpleasant. I like these: - Intellectually impaired (Stupid) - Aesthetically disadvantaged (Ugly) - A person of immense proportions (fat/big person) Get creative with words! Or do you recall any you've read and would like to share? Let's hear it! |
