Instead of removing all the words from our vocabularies as suggested, why not run a competition where one must use all those words in the order listed? Good idea? Oh, I'm full of them, I tell you!
No more than 2000 words, mind.....

It's been done, iccy. I won. 
Honest. Writethis.com ran the comp some months ago and I entered a set of three linked sonnets that pretty much used all the words, though not in the right order, and I actually beat all comers, and won a poetry book.
Here's my winning entry http://www.writethis.com/banned001.html

I fell about laughing when I saw you guys had reanimated this thread 
...
I've just read through the list once more and the challenge to write something utterly horrible, perhaps using every third word first. Then when I feel that task complete, every second and so on until every other word was used, looms ever nearer. I may also toss in the occasional expletive like; 'bastard/bastards', 'cunt/cunts' and 'fucker/fuckers', but that depends on where my humour levels are at on any given day.
You can argue with me about this if you like. I'll just laugh all the louder because I haven't written a damn thing. Yeah. That's it
... I'll create a literary conspiracy that 'really doesn't exist.'
Christ I'm good.
Right, you lot carry on. I'm just off to treat myself to a sandwich for being so clever

Should the word; F'cunllockstard be banned before it's discovered?

Ah, you're a joker, Delph!
I know that your banned list of words is in that infamous English humour... I'm almost laughing!
I mean, if you were serious, you'd have banned troglodyte already. Also zabaglione, Zarathrustrian, neanderthal, yo yo and yttrium.

What about the words Margaret and Thatcher, Tony and Blair, Gordon and Brown when used together? Not only should they be banned. They should be burned. Them and George W. Bush of course...
