Don't mean to be rude or anything, just here say there's a similar conversation in this thread from earlier this year.

I don't see that any harm is done by a topic that is similar or the same as one in the past, so long as the new iteration is made in good faith. Its a lot better than bumping an old thread. This is a large community and new members come in all the time. The topic here is not of great interest to ME, but I DO recall being almost mesmorized by the sound of the word "quicksand" when I was little. I remember saying the word over and over with different cadences and finding that some cadences were more interesting than others. I even remember the TV scene that started this interest in the sound.

"Sucked " as in under, down, in, etc.

I'm in the minority here, but the word "quicksand" gives me nothing. I always think about the real thing and its completely different from the videos we see here.

I'm a fan of "bog", "morass", "quagmire". Also "quickmud" is interesting as a fantasy-thing.

Regarding my other interests: "It's swamping my waders/boots" is something i like to hear...

In my post here this morning I left out the name of the TV program. I couldn't remember it at the time and was too busy to look it up. Anyway, I remembered. It was Ramar. Or Remar of the Jungle. Something like that. It was a male scene involving Ramar's sidekick. So far as I am aware the scene is not available anywhere although other episodes of the series are.
