    I don't like the name Cathy but Kathy is ok. I just hate how it looks. Sorry if your name is Cathy, it's not you but just your name I don't like.

    pubic, burglar, womb, stinky, pedagogy <--- I hate these words because of the way they sound.

    aluminum, cinnamon, synonym, omnipotent <--- I hate these words because I can't pronounce them :)

    Moist

    I have never liked that word

    I agree. It sounds pornographic.

    Sundry and myriad. My ex would use them all the time, trying to sound like he was smarter and had a larger vocabulary than he did.

    Similarly, I developed an unwarranted hatred towards Jimi Hendrix because he always had to pop into music stores to check to see if there was any new Hendrix CDs. Dude, here's a hint: Hendrix died the year you were born. He's not gonna put out new tunes.

    My pet peeve:

    Your instead of you're.

    There, their, they're.

    (Learn them. Use them.) :sad:


    Definitely! And I also hate "anyhoo" (with a passion), "conversate"-not a word; have a conversation or converse PLEASE; "the Walmarks" and "can't hardly wait"; it's "can hardly...".

    Glad I'm not alone in this! :wink:

    and when someone says "I could care less"......it's couldn't! You couldn't care less! It takes everything I have not to correct them!

    Ask my kids about this one...I literally scream and shout at the screen when i see it it's "I COULDN'T care less" because if you "could care less" it means you care about it somewhat.......grrrrrrrr....and breath

    "my bad", so its a phrase. still drives me nuts

    I just don't get this one, i see it in place of "sorry, I made a mistake" but it doesn't sound sincere

    And the other one that really gets to me is "tounge" it is spelled TONGUE...OK!?
