Like Zippy the Pinhead, I’ll sometimes find myself repeating a word or name over and over, just because of the way it “feels” when I pronounce it.
Wouldn’t you know it, I can’t think of any just now.

Here’s a word that is giggle worthy but also disgusting…
scab
It brings a shiver but laughable at the same time.
Lickety-split.
Do-wop.
Squish.
Nepalese.
Huckleberry.
Oodle, tootle, noodle, strudle.
Boolean.
ointment
Guinastasia came close to this, but I’m surprised nobody’s said this right out. It struck me earlier, while talking about my best friend, that the word “penis” is extremely bizarre and, yes, giggle-worthy.

Penis…
PENIS!!!
For some reason, Arapaho makes me laugh. This comes up a lot because there is a major street named that in my area.
butthole.
biscuit-head.
doofus.
Titikaka-as in Lake Titikaka…I know I’m misspelling it.
Hey, that’s my name!
Strangely, the word ‘shite’ always puts a smile on my face. And you have to say it with a really thick accent.
“Rambunctious” and “Roly-Poly” . . especially when used to describe cute little fat kids!
Mine, that falls into the above catagory, is “FROM”. Say it several times and it loses all meaning and you end up singing THE LITTLE DRUMMER BOY.
Love----WINAMUCCA, PODUNK, SQUAT, FREEBIE, BODACIOUS, MICHAEL CAINE’S character’s name in ZULU—GONVILLE BROMHEAD; now THERE’S a name to be reckoned with.

What about… “Titicaca”?
Every once in a while, words just seem to fit:
smegma
mucus
tinkle
and some seem alien (although the two combined can be quite a hoot):
plethora
areole
and sometimes, you just want to buy a vowel:
syzygy
Ah, yes, a joke that is told by every rock group that visits my home town.
“Do you guys know what Regina rhymes with? teeheehee” Yep…I’ll just be out here having a beverage, you guys give me a shout when you’re finished up.
Just joking with you, Ginger.
It’s just that I’ve heard that one quite a lot…
Guar Gum
Man, some of these never struck me as funny until I read this thread. Now I’m giggling uncontrollably at work.
my additions:
Piano
Diaper
Moist
Succasunna (town in New Jersey)
and a second (third?) to PANTIES
Ron
…but it makes sense. None the less, it makes people laugh when they hear it.
