@Picklebobble2 Any special reason? Or you just like the sounds?

@sumojumo Cornucopia has five syllables which is fairly unusual for such a short word. It almost 'sounds' 'plentiful' as you say it.

Auspicious has an unusual sound to it. Similar to suspicious but with almost a totally opposite meaning.

Clobbered just because it's almost never used these days. In fact it's origin is said to be from World War 2 but it's unclear where from.

@Picklebobble2 thanks for the explanation, now I see the beauty in these words as well - so cool
