Not a snowclone but an actual subject that just happened to be kind of inspired by the S words post.


I have always wondered why the letter D has the largest number of significant "negative" words. Can anyone think of a reason?


Doom


Death


Dark


Dour


Dim


Dreadful


Despicable


Dumb


Dire


Dingy


Drab


Dull


Disastrous


Depraved


Dangerous


Deranged


Dementia


Dismal


Doubtful


Destructive


Devastated


Disgusting


Demonic


Devious


Dastardly


Dank


Dystopian


Depression


Disease


Despair


Damned


Dented


Uh...Dracula!


 


Yeah, some of these may just be products of the "de" and "dis" prefixes, but that's debatable (another one!) as who ever heard of being gusted or vious?


 


The only positives I can think of are delicious, delightful, darling, dear, definite and desirable.
