Where to begin? Yes, I have thought that "friendlily" should be a word, too. And I think that story is a cool word, but I just like that o-r sound. Tale and legend, eh, not so great. Fable . . . reminds me of feeble. Last night I thought of the word "feeble" and I started laughing so hard I was afraid my neighbor would hear me. Do you think it's funny? Monogatari is pretty cool, but I wonder if it would seem cool if you were actually Japanese

I think all your scary words are scary except "pork." "Pork" is funny, to me. 'Er' and 'or' sounds are much more funny than scary usually I think. "Whom" is good though.
I definitely think in words, not pictures (I was going to comment on that entry too, but I didn't get a chance, so now I'll comment on that entry in this entry.) When I was a kid, usually my inner monologue ran like a third-person narrative: "she put on her red flowered dress" etc. I managed to kick that habit at some point because it was driving me crazy.
The fact that you think in pictures first makes me think you really should try to learn to draw again. But far be it from me to dictate :- ) Anyway I think Lewis said his ideas came to him the same way.
I love the word "story," but I think that's just because I love stories. It's one of those words that's really hard for me to separate from its meaning.
