@Cherrybee: Pube= makes me want to vomit! I also hate scrote! My dog is a pug and after we had him fixed his scrotum became all tiny and deflated looking, so DH started calling him Little Scrote. It drives me crazy!

My friend Rob also hates the word moist. So funny. I hate
LMAO or LMFAO
I also hate the nom nom nom thing, I don't like when people use LOL and I never use the term DH because I hate it!! Ick! But I also use alot of the things that freak you guys out so I'm not above it. And sometimes I make myself cringe when I use certain terms. It's like small talk. I hate it but I do it.

I hate:
ghetto
retarded
literally
Nazi (as in She's such a spelling nazi)
I'm sure there are more but those are off the top of my head.
@littlebug: Oriental: I had just left the bathroom and this Asian guy (I think Japanese) asks me, "Excuse me, Did you see an Oriental girl in there?" And I was so flabbergasted that he said Oriental! Haha. I said, Oh yeah there's an ASIAN girl in there.

@autumnlove: I was just going to write foodie too! I hate it when people call me a foodie.
Also, "literally" and "retarded".
@mrsjazz: Honestly, it's really only Americans who obsess over oriental vs asian. I know a lot of Asian-Canadians who use "oriental" because that's the term they know...and only if they are up-to-date on PC issues do they understand why oriental shouldn't be used.

@Freckles: Yeah, I wish I could watch that moment back on tape because I stood there for a minute with the wheels in my head turning because I was so confused. But that's probably it, they most likely weren't Americans.

@Freckles: @mrsjazz: Over here, in the UK, "Asian" is the catch-all colloquial term for Indian/Pujabi/Pakistani/Bangladeshi etc people (as if there should be a "catch-all term"). It's not unusual to hear people from China/Japan/Korea/Thailand etc referred to as "Oriental". I can't say as I've ever used the term - I think I must know deep down that it's offensive. I guess what's most offensive is needing a term for someone to catagorize them based on the way they look because that's what it is.... I mean, someone from Pakistan and someone from India have only one similarity, really - their skin colour.

I think you're all literally cray cray for being so totes against so many words, for realz yo.
You guys are funny.
The only word I really despise is the c-word because I feel like it's degrading towards women. I can't think of any other word that makes me cringe like that one does!

@PurplePumps: yes! I find (just sayin') very annoying. I know what you are saying, I hear you.

@Freckles: I don't know. Oriental sounds like a rug or vase to me. I wouldn't be offended but it would be odd, if someone said I was Oriental. Uhh, ok.

@Adira: my mother in law once said to me "see you on Tuesday!" and I cracked up. No one could figure out what was so funny. We really DID see her the following Tuesday. The word doesn't bother me, though.
I cannot stand moist. Preggers and critter make me shiver.

@Lindsay05: @Mamaof2: @mrsjazz: *I don't think you're ready for this jelly* . . .
coconut / 8234 posts
@MsLipGloss: Haha. That, too. Urban Dictionary has both Beyonce's jelly and jelly/jealous listed.
What I love about language is how it evolves, though some would say it's devolving i.e. selfie, vajayjay, jelly, & nom nom.

selfie
normcore - I can't figure out if it's an actual thing or a hoax played by the interwebs, but it reeks of so much hipster that I can't handle it!

@PurplePumps: This is one of my biggest ones! "Just sayin'." Why do you have to add that? Obviously that's what you're saying...you're literally (hehe) SAYING it. My mom says it alllllll the time for some reason, especially when talking online. It kills me.
I dislike "internet speak." I just don't get it. What's the point of it? Is it supposed to sound cute? What not just type out the real, actual words? Examples include:
- Feels ("That hit me right in the feels...")
- Haz ("I can haz that?")
-"Mahselfs ("I'm so proud of mahselfs!")
- Jelly for jealous
- Totes for totally
- Whatev or whatevs for whatever
- Cray-cray for crazy
And I also dislike intentional misspellings.

@Cherrybee: hahahaha your list made me laugh.
A friend used to say "spittle" when her son would spit up. Gross. I hate when people say, "fam damily" CRINGE. Also, when anyone uses gay as in "stupid", it makes me furious!
DH hates when I say, "b-t-dubs" (btw). I just say it to bother him. Haha.

@HLK208: Hmm. Do you say that because people around here say 'U dub' when they refer to University of Washington or U of W? Are you an U of W alumni?

@bluestriped bee: cougar blood here but DH is a big husky fan!
But the saying is from How I Met Your Mother and it's stuck since I heard it

@HLK208: Spittle kind of reminds me of using "piddle" instead of pee.
My MIL, over Easter, said "I'd better piddle before we leave." ACKKK. I wanted to rip my ears off.

@IRunForFun: I have the same reaction to *tee tee* as in *I have to tee tee* OMGMAKEITSTOP. I do, however, love to use *mahselfs*!

I bet there is a plethora of moistness while having nookie.

@IRunForFun: right on for all of that! If I see a store like "Kathy's Korner," it really bugs me.
I dislike "chunks."
pomelo / 5509 posts
@Happygal: YES! We have a daycare center here called Kidz Korner. Really? REALLY!?
And I was just thinking I was surprised no one had mentioned "chunks" or "chunky." That's a gross word. I associate it with vomit.
