huzzah

See this profile for a masterful example of usage.

This word is immeasurably superior to "hurrah".

Whenever I hear kudos I think of the snack bar. Otherwise, good joke!

One day I'm going to say to someone, "huzzah, but no kudos, it wasn't THAT good".

No, but close! A museum. (We actually have an apothecary shop.) The other job was a Renaissance Faire--where it's somewhat less surprising that you'd hear an anachronistic word...

Is it really nineteenth century? Hmm.

But CB, it's so 19th century. Do you work in an apothecary shop?

Actually, 'huzzah' has attained some sort of cutesy, semi-ironic (semironic?) currency. I occasionally deploy it. I blame Mr. Burns.

I hear this almost every freakin' day at work. No, really. What's even weirder, that's the second job I've had where it's used every day.

I like it when Monty Burns says this on the Simpsons. (/unoriginal)
