    Tickler

    I have a coworker next to me who refers to reminder emails as "ticklers". He'll say "I'm going to send the client a tickler about that project". Yucky.

    But "pap smear" sounds gross too!

    I can't actually pronounce this correctly. When I say "pap smear", it comes out "pap schmear." Therefore, every time I say it, I immediately think of bagels and cream cheese.


    OMG...I can't stop giggling!!

    My Cringe words...
    Chewsday -- instead of Tuesday
    Sh-edule -- instead of SCHedule...there is a hard K sound people!!

    UUGGGHHHH!!
