harlot...what a glorious word. truly divine.
Plus, I'd find it a much more alluring accomplishment to be a strumpet than be a Trixie. Poor things should be chained to a tree and left for the sunlight *nods*
'moist' though? *shudders* ach just awful. moist panties. AHHHHHHHH GAH that's horrible.

Harlot is awesome. Nice and archaic.
'Moist' is a soft word though. 'Berry'? Now that's awful. Dangleberries... Dangleberry-brained... The naughty bits and the dirty bits are so close together, it just goes to show how eating and sex are related.

I hate that word. It's so tacky. I mean, really, is there a need to go on and insult the other person's sexual choices? Not like who they sleep with, and if they get paid or not is any of your business. There are much more inventive insults around. Like... "You son of a syphillitic cunt!" or, if you REALLY must, "You're easier than summing up 2+2" There are also much more subtle insults. Anyway, this was hardly the point. My point was, I hate the word "whore". I guess I don't mind "slut" too much, but "whore" does bother me. Not that any of you cares. Just thought you should know. For whatever reason. It's a useful word. I used it to run Cerridwen out of town turning her into a weird ass drugged up junky. It has its uses but only really effective if the person you're directing at is affected by it. Otherwise, I find no real use for it. I can usually find varying ways of saying the same thing without the use of the word.

Yes, Harlot I like, there is a vintage taste to it associated with guilty shame that's just perfect... Whore is too closely related to paid sexual favours to be a good expletive. It certainly fits some of the slave auction's candidates though.
Oh, and Jean, I fear a word was left out... "Mieux VAUT vache que con" Without the verb, the sentence loses its meaning...

You remind me of the Police de la Langue Française , dragonet, but more grammatically correct and far more amusing.
Harlot is a very good, strong word.

Ah, thank you black_dragonet.... I've spent so long speaking English in this infernal city that my French seems to be fading. That or it was a shade too close to the dawn when I wrote.
Waves back to Tifereth with a cheeky grin... yeah, I know it's supposed to be a newspaper, but what the heck.

I'm particularly fond of some of those.
"He had delusions of adequacy." <- This one is by far, one of my favourites. Ever.
Also,
“If you can’t ignore an insult, top it; if you can’t top it, laugh it off; and if you can’t laugh it off, it’s probably deserved.”
"He may look like an idiot and talk like an idiot but don't let that fool you. He really is an idiot."
"She has a toxic personality bordering on the radioactive."
"Humans only use about 1/10 of their brain power. With you, it could be less."
"I find a few people annoying, and you are all of them."
"You're a man with no nice qualities, as far as I can tell."
"It would be hypocritical of me to ask. It would suggest I care."
"To praise princes for virtues they are lacking in is a way of insulting them with impunity"
"I need more money, more power, and less shit from stupid people like you. "

In keeping with the theme...
An affair now and then is good for a marriage. It adds spice, stops it from getting boring... I ought to know. Bette Davis

Don't marry a man to reform him - that's what reform schools are for. Mae West
From the moment I was six I felt sexy. And let me tell you it was hell, sheer hell, waiting to do something about it. Bette Davis
It's not true I had nothing on, I had the radio on. Marilyn Monroe
I'll try anything once, twice if I like it, three times to make sure. Mae West
If you obey all the rules you miss all the fun. Katharine Hepburn
When choosing between two evils, I always like to try the one I've never tried before. Mae West
...and found some additional glorious descriptions of said topic being 'whore', namely Drossel, Wench and Drazel.

Oh, I've been meaning to show off Tallulah Bankhead for weeks. She was awesome, and oxymoronically American. But I love her anyway.
“The only thing I regret about my past is the length of it. If I had to live my life again I'd make all the same mistakes - only sooner.”
“I'll come and make love to you at five o'clock. If I'm late, start without me.”
“I'd rather be strongly wrong than weakly right.”
(on seeing a former lover for the first time in years) "I thought I told you to wait in the car."
“Cocaine isn't habit forming. I should know - I've been using it for years.”
“Here's a rule I recommend: Never practice two vices at once”
“The less I behave like Whistler's mother the night before, the more I look like her the morning after.”
“Television could perform a great service in mass education, but there's no indication its sponsors have anything like this on their minds.”
“I've tried several varieties of sex. The conventional position makes me claustrophobic and the others give me a stiff neck or lockjaw.”
“Nobody can be exactly me. Sometimes even I have trouble doing it.”
“My father warned me about men and booze, but he never said anything about women and cocaine.”
(on why she called everyone "darling") "Because all my life I've been terrible at remembering people's names. Once I introduced a friend of mine as 'Martini'. Her name was actually 'Olive'.”
“I did what I could to inflate the rumor I was on my way to stardom. What I was on my way to, by any mathematical standards known to man, was oblivion, by way of obscurity.”
“I'm not at my best when I moralize or philosophize. Logic is elusive, especially to one who so rarely uses it.”
"Codeine... bourbon..." (last words)
Didn't I say she was awesome?
