  2. Humn, I like the word breakfasts becasue I say it wrong and it always makes my husband laugh (and sometime give me a kiss). I don’t think I will ever say it right. 🙂

  3. So I liked Curiously Wrought on Facebook, so here’s the second entry! Woot! Another word I like is Oregon (from there), since it’s great when people say it wrong and you can tell where they are from in how they say it.

  9. I follow on google reader – cool giveaway! Wrought reminds me of another funny word I love – wriggle. (most people pronounce it riggle – but it’s wiggle!)

  19. Added them to my etsy favs. They don’t have my state, NC, but I like the details on the Maryland piece.

  25. My least favorite word is probably ‘moist’; I don’t know why. I’m sure a lot of people have/will say the same.

  26. Least favorite word has to be “moist.” I worked at a summer camp where we were always sweaty or recovering from a water fight. I was all too often moist…not a good feeling!

  35. My favorite word as a teenager was angst. It was so fitting for that time in my life. Nowadays, I would have to say my favorite word would have to be “breathe”. I have two special needs children and I constantly tell myself this on a daily basis.

  52. I subscribe through email. I’ve been wanting one of these string type maps for several months.
    Can’t think of a favorite word but “food” comes to mind. :O)

  55. I added Curiously Wrought to my Etsy favorites. I like the little New York since it is the only state I’ve lived in that’s pictured. My husband and I are from opposite sides of PA. I would LOVE one of these with a heart over Philly and another over Pittsburgh!

  59. I follow you on Google Reader! My least favorite work is “moist”. Ugh. I shudder even typing it and considered coming up with something else. Gross.

  60. I subscribed.

    My favorite word is “nosocomial.” It means hospital-acquired, as in you went into the hospital and then got an infection just from being there.

  63. Curiosity Wrought is an easy favorite! I’m from Washington, left my heart in California and I now Iive in Indiana. Which state would I choose?

  66. Suckers only because my three year old has taken to saying suckas after every sentence he speaks “I love you mom suckas” not so cute.

  68. i subscribe via google reader 🙂
    LOVE to have a MT map…which isn’t on their page unfortunately.

  70. So fun reading through these comments! I dislike the word sneakers. They are tennis shoes, which makes no sense because I don’t play tennis!

    Reply

  76. I like words like “therefore” and “subsequently” and “regardless”. They always seem to trip people up.

    Reply

  78. And just liked Curiously Wrought on facebook! Thought of a catch phrase I dislike… “hit that”

    Reply

  83. I made Curiously Wrought a favorite on my Etsy! I can’t decide on any one map, so I think I would go for Alabama (for me), Louisiana (for my husband), and Florida (where we live now and where my son was born). One at a time, I suppose…

  85. I follow you through my Google Reader. Your blog is great.
    My least favorite word is Communal. I hate the way it sounds and it’s definition.

    Reply

  91. I already follow you in my Google Reader! My hate the word moist, unless it’s used to describe cake of course!

    Reply

  95. I subscribe. My most favorite word is discombobulated. Someone once told me it isn’t a real word and I don’t care. It’s still my favorite.

    Reply

  96. Curiously Wrought is now an Etsy favorite and my favorite item? New Jersey. I was born & raised, moved to Washington State in 1989 but I miss home quite a bit.

  97. I’ve liked Curiously Wrought on Facebook. Hoping here…I’m practically drooling to hang Jersey on my wall. 🙂
