I've always had an admiration for good use of euphemism - packaging (in words) not-so-pleasant things or situations in a cute manner such that makes it look less embarrasing or unpleasant. I like these:
- Intellectually impaired (Stupid)
- Aesthetically disadvantaged (Ugly)
- A person of immense proportions (fat/big person)
Get creative with words! Or do you recall any you've read and would like to share? Let's hear it!

Just for the fun of it, let's include business and political euphemisms in our posts: - Ethnic Cleansing : Gross intolerance/ massacre of other ethinic groups  ( May God forgive the individual who invented this phrase!) |
