Favorite Word:

nut
I wanted to use the word "Walnetto", which is a walnut and chocolate candy named in the 1970s "dirty old man skit" on TV's Rowen and Martin's "Laugh In": "Would you like a Walnetto?" This is a current running joke I share with my sweetheart. But the visualization program did not recognize the candy, and there were no links to the word "walnut" - so we're going with "nut".

Least Favorite Word:

hate
