QUICK: Post a Fun Word, WIN All Access To Northside Music and Arts Festival
This year, The L Magazine will host the first annual Northside Music and Arts Festival, a four-day celebration of New York City’s independent music and art scene, taking place from June 11-14 at over fifty music venues and galleries throughout the Williamsburg and Greenpoint neighborhoods of Brooklyn. Go to Northsidefestival to read all about it, but know that a $45 all access pass gets you admission to every show, free Heineken Light every day of the festival from 5-8pm on the rooftop patios of Studio B and Juliette, discounts at city bars, restaurants and more… and I’m giving away two!
Here’s how it works: In the upper right-hand corner I’ve posted 10 words I find fun, but sure there are hundred more. Post a word or words you think are fun to say in the comments below. First thing tomorrow I’ll pick the two funnest and put the winners on the list for passes. Sound good? Ready? Set? Go!
UPDATE: Loads of entries made me smile (thanks for that), most notably the several variations of poop (2 below, 3 via Twitter). As for the prize, I think I’m going with “Spatula” by Jason and Craig for “Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia.” Winners, contact me at jakehimself a t gmail so I can pass you name along to the organizers and tell you where and how to claim your prize.

Kuwait.
I know, it’s a proper noun – but I’ve always liked the way it rolls off the tongue.

Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia. Not only is it fun to say, but the meaning behind it his awesome too. It is the fear of long words. Oh irony, you strike yet again.

I think if you make up the word it’s even better. Brace yourself:
