You could also have anthrocide, which would be the act of killing humanity, once again a word with little non-fictional use.

There's also kerfuffle, which is perhaps the least legitimate sounding legitimate word. I always use it when discussing geopolitics to throw people off.

[MaximumZero]

Wouldn't it be all human shaped things?

[MetalSlimeHunt]

I'm just welding roots together, who knows?

[MaximumZero]

I like antithesis.

This is also a word I like.

[Meansdarling]

I like the word morbid as well. Twilight is quite nice too.

[MaximumZero]

Well, it was before connotations of horribly flat characters and sparkly twits...

[Meansdarling]

I'm thinking of the Electric Orchestra song.

lol Yeah sparkly vampires.

[MaximumZero]

You mean ELO, right?

[MetalSlimeHunt]

Yes, now Dawn and Dusk are the only good day-period related words.

Not a lot of people realize that Breakfast is when you're supposed to break your fast.

I've also noticed there are a lot of sun words. Sunshine, Sunlight, Sunscreen, Suntan, Sunny, Sunburn, Sunburst, Sundial, Sunflower, Sunday, Sunrise, Sunset. It shouldn't be very surprising, given that most energy and by extension all life on Earth riginally came from Sol, but still.

Sonata is a pleasant word. Novella is...much less so.

Awesome Words related to Nighttime: Nocturnal, Firefly, Bonfire, Lunar, Starlight.

Awesome Words related to Computers: Cyberspace, Digital, Holographic, Bandwidth, Reboot, Firewall.

Interestingly, firewall originally described a British artillery strategy in World War I, in which a "firewall" barrage would be sent in front of the soliders to ensure that they could not be fired upon by the enemy trench. Done well, this assured victory. Done badly, you blew up your own troops.

[MaximumZero]

Not purely a computer term, but it reminded me that Torrent is a badass word.

[Urist McPenguinhead]

Serenity is a nice word...it sounds like rainforests and things.
But then again, I might be biased because I am Firefly fanguuurl :p

Browncoats for life!

[Frumple]

Serenity sounds nothing like a rainforest

Rainforests are miserable and will kill you. They're like florida on crack with more spiders and poisonous things.

[MaximumZero]

Yes, rainforests are terrifying embarks.
