Cool words to slip into an interview

[Picklesali]

Members don't see this ad.

Is there a word that you've always wanted to use, but just didn't have the balls?? I'm especially partial to English slang. Let's make a list of (non-vulgar) words you wish you could say during an interview, and how you'd use it. I'll start:

1. Codswallop - As in response to the question "What do you think of Hillary Clinton's Healthcare plan?"

2._________

2. Bodacious - that is one bodacious anatomy lab you got there
3. Bootylicious- I want to be a doctor so I can get with all the bootylicious nurses

 

[Picklesali]

Awesome thanks for adding in your usages!

 

[Miniwheat]

Horse puckey-😀
I think that the fact that the U.S is so wealthy but has such a high infant death rate is horse puckey.

 

[Inuranic]

That's balls - Reaction to something awesome.

 

[Drogba]

Definitely address your interviewer as Dawg at some point.

Also, call em a cheeky old **nt right before playfully slapping his cheeks like an italian would.

 

[Miniwheat]

Homeslice might work too👍

baller seats - expensive seats at the movie theater that are comfier and allow you access to the bar

Interview Convo:
I - What's one thing you like to do for fun?
Me - Go to the movie theater and sit in the baller seats
I - (confused expression) What's a baller seat?

It was actually pretty funny.

 

[Bacchus]

I'll remain naive and believe in my heart that codswallop is synonomous with adequate, good.

 

[ChubbyChaser]

How you doin?- when you are interviewed by a female you throw it in and give them a sexy 😉. Instead of writing a thank you letter, you send a love letter asking if they want to get together some time.

And what movie theaters have these?

If you've gots to asks, clearly you not baller enough.

 

[Aynsl156]

Balderdash - In response to anything your interviewer asserts.

Interviewer: We have a wonderful P/F grading policy!

You, scoffing: Balderdash!

 

[Bacchus]

I think Bridge Cinema de Lux comes close. Well, there is no bar in the theatre, however the seats are probably the most comfortable I have ever sat in.

 

[MassTransport]

Embiggens and cromulent.

They have a bar right next door :]. Kind of expensive theater though but I guess most of the north east is like that.

2. Bodacious - that is one bodacious anatomy lab you got there
3. Bootylicious- I want to be a doctor so I can get with all the bootylicious nurses
4. Factitious - I want to hear it as in, "All of the other candidates have been factitious in comparison to you."[SIZE=-1]

Factitious - fake - not real or natural, but invented - contrived and insincere rather than genuine[/SIZE]

In a word, tell me about your research experiences:

You, scoffing: Balderdash!

I love that game!

 

[Nookular]

Embiggens and cromulent.

Correct usage: A noble spirit embiggens the smallest man.

 

[Picklesali]

Poppycock would be a good substitute for balderdash, if you're looking for a little variety.

You could also say fiddlesticks.

I got a call from the 1950's, they want their lingo back.

Really? I would use fiddlesticks in a more "Oh, shucks!" sort of way, not a way to call someone out.

 

[JaggerPlate]

Tell them your name is "Bond, James Bond," when you walk into the interview. Doesn't get much 'cooler' than that ....

 

[gwill024]

Whenever exiting the interview please be congenial and say "word to your mother...yo" Yo optional.

Just make sure to wear your purple velour track suit, which actually look kinda sexy on women, but totally gangsta on guys.

 

[Dendrite]

snozberries.

Like, "the snozberries taste like snozberries"

 

[Begaster]

Hornswoggle - to swindle, cheat, hoodwink, or hoax.

I'm not old enough for the Lounge (well for 2 more days). They are expensive, 11.50 or 11.00 per ticket. In NEPA we get tix for $6.

 

[ChubbyChaser]

I am not gonna say anything just give them the : Blue Steel!

sphincter

not an unusual word (well maybe in normal conversation), but just say it a few times out loud and you'll realize how cool of a word it is👍

Nah, I do NOT want to feel the need to slip that word into an interview situation. Thanks so much for the mental images you created.😱

he was obviously referring to the cardiac sphincter. In any case you better be thankful all your sphincters are in good working order, otherwise things could get ugly and mess for you real fast.

I have always been partial to, discombobulate.

Childsplay.

Try Donaudampfschiffahrtselektrizitätenhauptbetriebswerkbauunterbeamtengessellschaft on for measure.

(I think the forum broke that into two words for some reason, I guess it can't handle the awesome length.)

Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz

one word, no space, same problem.

I scoff in floccinaucinihilipilification at your attempts to outdo me.

Man thats a hard word to work in.

That's Honorificabilitudinitatibus!

(crap, I think I just gave you a complement)

 

[pagemmapants]

You could always just tell them you live in Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyll-llantysiliogogogoch . . .

 

[astrocreep96]

Erroneous!

But you need to stand up and yell it at the interviewer. And point a finger.

 

[GoldShadow]

Trustigious!

Budumpadump


Usage at an interview: So, I got a "C" in Organic Chem because my prof had this fine perfectly round Badumpadump on her that just makes a man's heart miss a beat. So, the only mechanism I learned in that class is the the leg cross.

 

[Miniwheat]

technically , the longest word in the dictionary is antidisestablishmentarianism but I challenge anyone to come up with a way to work and obscure 15th century political term into an interview dialogue.

Actually, Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis is the longest word in a non-technical English dictionary.

 

[Miniwheat]

I stand corrected. That sounds like one scary condition. Do you know what it is, I can try and intuit from the word..but its kinda late.
