...for all of you barbelithers who are far too sophisticated and educated for drunken college terms like "horny" - give the rest of us swine some useful options

lustful
concupiscent
goatish
hot
lascivious
libidinous
lickerish
passionate
prurient
satyric

(my favorite has to be lickerish)

My favourite has to be "plagiarism".

(You naughty kittie you )

As an alternative to common everyday slang, I sometimes use Shakespearean insults.

"A pox o' your throat!"

Most times this just makes me the butt of a juvenille put-down.

I suck.

Zoom.

p.s. I like lickerish too. And now I'm going to associate that word with you. I'll never be able to eat Bassets the same way again.

....ok, maybe we arent getting far enough from the "juvenile" bit. maybe thats asking too much of myself!

You want red lickerish or black lickerish? Or that funky horrible minty green lickerish?

As long as we don't start on "goatish"...

Haus about we all give each other a big lovely huggle?

I knew a hetero couple, you know, one of those couples that is so disgustingly cuddly with each other that your blood sugar rises when they come in the room.

Both of them used the term 'slutcake' to represent horniness.

e.g., "I'm feeling all slutcake."

or sometimes it would change to a noun:

"Sorry we were late, we were eating slutcake."

I haven't seen them in years. I wonder if they're still together.

God, I hope not, simpering fucks. Using such a disgustingly saccharine term just takes away all the danger and excitement of special magic huggles in the schnoogle kingdom.

Oh, "lubricious" is nice, by the way.
 
 
pointless and uncalled for
14:31 / 06.03.02
Hell, I hope they are, heaven forbid that they propogate that nasty crap with other people.

{costanza} They star with just a few but it spreads and it spreads and before you know it's the kind of madness you don't even want to think about. It's not right Jerry, it just not right {/costanza}

I've started using the word "gymkata" as a catch-all term. And I'm going to give "when Hell comes to Frogtown" a chance as soon as possible. Thanks, Ofermod.

just remembered....at my school everyone would call getting down and dirty with your favourite boy or girl: "doing the naughty". it was really annoying but cute enough.
i still can't believe those people and their slutcakes.

As long as you don't start saying, "But you're not doing it for him. You're doing it for me, Bubba." Whenever you go out on dates.

How about "riding the funky"? Admittedly I haven't heard it used in a while:

"Darling, I dobelieve that fellow who's been eying you all night is ready to ride the funky. Why don't you walk over and strap him on ?"

"Hmmm...that fine female at the end of the bar just sent over another shot of Cardhu...and her phone number...does this mean she wants to ride the funky with me?"

C'mon! It's better than "slutcake"! (Damn Lothar, your post was funny )

Ahh, whatever happened to simlpe innocent terms like "hot to trot"?

And I like "bumping the lala", both as an expression and as an activity.

How about simply annoucing, loudly,

Sex is on!

and simply ducking the whole euphenism thing entirely?

My brother likes to "Ride the Donkey". Admittedly not terribly funny, but the hopping on one leg, one had pretending to be the mane and one holding the reigns action that accompanies it is fuckin' brilliant. I will never deomnstrate. Don't ask.

Just looking through the dictionary of taboo and obscenity for other words for horny and I came across "Avocado". No, it doesn't mean horny, in fact, it doesn't mean anything libidinous. But the name avocado came from the Aztec word for "scrotum", 'cause that what they thought avocadoes looked like.

Back in a bit with more.

I've heard that avocados were the "Love Fruit of the Aztecs." (ahuatl, is it?) I did not know that it was a testicular reference, however – merely a reference to its aphrodisiacal properties ("pass the guacamole, behbeh – I'm ready to ride the funky!")

Ahh, whatever happened to simlpe innocent terms like "hot to trot"? – Mordant C@rnival

Or "gettin busy"? or "get your groove on"?

I was feeling saucy the other day and realized I couldnt come up with anything more to-the-point other than "horny". which, lets face it, is an ugly and completely stupid word. I have a decent vocabulary! surely I could do better! "horny" indeed - desire and passion doesnt quite cover the nature of it.

and Im wondering - what other childish names do we use on a regular basis, for lack of a more savory alternative?
 
 
Captain Zoom
18:13 / 06.03.02
I have found that since becoming a father, I use the word "tummy" and awful lot. And I fucking hate that word.

Okay. Here's some other words for horny. I'm checking all the online thesauri I can.

Frisky, Naughty, Randy, lusty, in the mood, amative, amorous.

Surprisingly hard (ha!) to find a thesaurus online. I'm sure I'll come up with others.

i really wouldnt use the word sophisticated, it doesnt matter what letters you put together or how it sounds, it all describes the same condition and anyone who thinks saying goatish hot or passionate makes any difference as to the condition theyre describing is REALLY delusional and thinking language is more than what it is.

its funny how theres a hundered ways to say you feel like fucking but i get a pain in my side and not even drs know wtf to call it.
i know i sound cynical, but people who think they should use different words around kids and in certain social situations are just ignoring the real problem and putting the euphemistic band aid on it.
any language we use that isnt direct and to the point is rooted in deciet and is the cause of many misunderstandings.
if i feel like i want to fuck i say im horny, ill do it in front of the pope or your kid, and if you have a problem with it, i suggest taking your cranial unit, releasing all your cerebral flatulence and relocating it from your rectal area to a position somewhere above your shoulders, preferrably facing forward in hopes maybe one day you too can join the ranks of the informed, aware and alive. until then keep ripe for the fnords and searching for your god in words. someone has to do it and i rather it be you than me.

That reminds me. I knew someone who used to say 'bumping uglies' to represent the deed itself.

I never saw the attraction to that term.

I actually kind of like it: its so utterly stupid and foolish that its appealing and fun. bumping uglies...haha

Yerrr, but bumping the lala sounds... pleasanter. Plus you can make Tellytubbies jokes about it. Which is all to the good, right?

I'm still partial to Bumping Uglies, but Knocking Boots is starting to overtake it.

Did you know that the phrase "hoist by your own petard" refers to a small bell-shaped explosive device used to take out port-cullises? If the device wasn't quite small enough, it would take out not only the port-cullis, but the people laying the explosive. The word "petard" comes from a French word meaning "to fart".

Me am Bizzaro OED.

Main Entry: fart
Function: noun
Date: 14th century
1 often vulgar : an expulsion of intestinal gas
2 often vulgar : a foolish or contemptible person <couldn't stand the old fart>

14th century? Neat.
I've nothing to say about the word fart. Except that it becomes very cute when you add other words after it.

For further archaic slang terms, can I recommend:

...while lamenting the fact that the word 'swoonsome' has fallen woefully into neglect when describing a fetching potential shagpartner.
