Does anyone have a word that gives them a bad feeling? I'm not referring to atrocious use of the language. I'm wondering if some words give otherwise disconcerting feelings. Maybe moist or proboscis.

I have a feeling @motorsheen will say 'stop' bothers him.

    Honestly, no. I had to backtrack some to see to what you were referring. I'm sure they are candidates for some.

    I've been told a few times not to use the word "snigger" because it is similar sounding to another word that shouldn't be said or that they didn't know it was an actual word.

    • Moist.
    • A word I can't write here without getting a warning, but it starts with a "c".
    • Uranus (Yes, it's a planet but the way most people pronounce it is just.. ugh).

    The word is okay but when ppl say “divisive” with a short i instead of a long i it makes me cringe! This is a very di•VIGH•sive topic, indeed. 😉

    The word "probe" is another one. In most usages, it's got creepy connotations.

    Agreed! I have never liked that word, it’s just so ugh. I also used to dislike the word “purse” but it doesn’t bother me as much anymore.

    Speaking of p words. I do quite like the word percolate and all associated words with it. Percolating is just fun to say!

    Nefarious is also one of my favorites.

    I don’t like the word slosh
