An ex once told me her mother wasn’t a fan because talking to me was like talking to a thesaurus.

Yeah, well, Donna, your daughter decided to start fucking me because I was the only person who could consistently beat her at words with friends.

I had a girlfriend try to make me speak differently because I embarrassed her by using big words in front of others. The company you keep eh?

Back then I was a mess socially. I'm still an introvert but I code switch like a pro. I only break out the big vocab with close friends who know I'm not trying to look smart.

There's an episode of Northern Exposure where a young woman says to Ed "give me your words" in a very sexual way. It's outrageously funny, and simultaneously insightful.

If you've never watched it, the writers are all about studying people, warts and all. Very thought-provoking.
