Who Do YOU Love?

Expanding your vocabulary
-or-
What's your fetish, ya sick bastard?

The Perfect Child is in the midst of her summer semester courses, one of which is the task of memorizing 1000 medical terms.
We were going over some of her terms and at some point we started discussing latin and Greek roots of words especially in the medical profession and eventually the term 'necro" came up, and noting the different applications regarding dead stuff.
Necropsy, Necrotic, Necromancy, and of course- Necrophilia.
.

Much to TWWKMT's disapproval, I of course steer the conversation to Tom Lerher's bon mot from "An Evening Wasted":
"I particularly remember a heartwarming novel of his about a young necrophiliac who finally achieved his boyhood ambition by becoming coroner. ... (The rest of you can look it up when you get home.)"
Then I capped it off with one of my favorites about how a necrophiliac is someone that most people wouldn't want to be caught dead with.
Heh.
By this time TWWKMT is glaring daggers at me...
