What is your least favorite word? Is there some word that makes you cringe every time you hear it? What word makes your blood curdle? My least favorite word has not been uttered from my lips since March 16, 1996, and only then because I had to read aloud in class.

Oleaginous.

Mine is "fam" .Yuck.

more to do with the woman's part then our president...but, Dubya is closing in...HAIRY BUSH is even worse

I really hate it when people say worsh instead of wash...
ewww that irritates the hell out of me and being from the
sticks of Indiana...Go Hoosiers...I heard it quite often..
now that I live in chicago I still hear it and it bugs the
hell out of me...hmm must be a midwest thing or something.

It's a pair of words: "Quite frankly." Every idiot on TV uses these two words to sound intelligent when what they are saying usually far from frank.

Watch the news and count how many times you hear it from politicians...it'll make you sick how often it is used!!!

No, really!!!

Moonbeam said:

so what is your least favorite word arn't you
going to tell us.

MostBeautifulGrlNTheWorld said:

Nope! The mere thought of it makes me cringe. I can't say it, think it, type it, anything!

Moonbeam said:

oh Pleeease...atleast tell me what it starts with

MostBeautifulGrlNTheWorld said:

S

"Gameplay". AAARGH!

It's used all the time by lazy videogames journalists, and it is completely without meaning. There was a time when it once held a kind of meaning, but the word is used in so many different contexts now that it has lost what little meaning it may have have once held.

You wouldn't say "bookread" would you? Or "filmwatch"? No of course you don't. So why "gameplay"? It's a bullshit term. Some people use it to refer to the control system of a game, some people use it to refer to how "fun" a game is, some people use for design issues such as risk/reward structure, and worse still, some people use to refer to "how a game plays". Yes, I know.

It's bad, don't say it. Say what you mean instead.

is this word finable in the dictionary

SkletonKee said:

Wphew, i love the word 'bush', but i understand the W connection.

I've noticed a lot of people don't like:
moist
cunt
labia
gonnorhea (sounds like the runs, as if you're "gonna 'rhea")

And i wonder why women don't stick around past "Uhh! god you're better than your sister"...?

Moonbeam said:

Is it shindig
shiny
satin
sorta
soda
solitude

feltbluish said:

None of the above!

'Baccer, rather than tobacco.
'Mater, rather than tomato.
'Tater, rather than potato.
Missirez, rather than misses. Which really gets me! People say Missirez rather than misses when they see something like Mrs. around here.

I hate the word bitch when used on a female, as well. It's like the ultimate insult, really. Though I catch myself using it now and then.

I also hate the word fart...I HATE it.
Ugh.

"twat"
"teeny bopper"

"Tissue" is the absolute worst for me! *shudder*

What's the definition of the word? Can you tell us that?

Why do quite a few Americans use the word which sounds like Axe instead of Ask.I'm just curious.Anyone know?

logger said:

Ugh! I know, it especially happens here in the south. No one talks right here.

It's not a creek, it's a crick.
It's not a aunt, it's an aint.
It's not a ghost, it's a haint!

BattierBeMyDaddy said:

I say "crick"... I haven't said it in years though, as there aren't any where I live now! I have found that I say a lot of things wrong lately!

AzureStar said:

You are cute and I don't really think that you say things wrong at all... just cute little variations.

"khen"
"eeenough"

AzureStar said:

Stop saying "crick!" It's not a "crick!"

But really, those aren't the major annoying ones. I don't know, the southern accent is okay, til you get it on one of those good ol' country boys. Talking about cow shit and 'baccer.

IceNine said:

That is Eeeenough! KNOCK it off! Do you think you khen?

BattierBeMyDaddy said:

I will stop saying it until I see one again!

cunt..

has got to be one of the most offensive words i've ever heard...

just one though...others run a close second..
