    "Prolly" for "probably". It's like fingernails on a chalkboard to me. Eeeee! :grumble:

    The word "hanged".

    When someone is going to die by hanging shouldn't it be he was "hung"?
    Not he was "hanged". Ugh, that is so aggravating!


    No dirty minds here!

    To answer your question, no. The correct way of saying it is hanged. :flowerforyou:

    Can't = choose not too.

    I would love to be able to fly like a bird. I can think of a number of psychic abilities that would be fun (mind reading, telekinesis. Or that whole throwing balls of fire thing.) I think it'd be killer if I could make those steel like blades come out of my knuckles.

    Walk on water, or underwater for that matter. Become invisible. Pick up a car and change the tire without a jack. All sorts of neat things.

    But I guess I just choose not too.

    Also, because I just saw both of these in the same thread:

    Cray cray. Isn't it easier to type the word crazy?

    Anything with -licious added that shouldn't be there. "Dramalicious." What.

    Portions. I love to eat things I find so tasty. Dieting leaves a person feeling deprived, even if you eat just smaller portions! :noway:

    I hate the use of "LOL" or "LOL'ed" (technically, it should be L'edOL ;] )

    Anytime someone adds "x" into a word it doesn't go in: expecially, expresso, excetera!

    "c u l8r" - it is no longer 1995, people.

    I have a cousin who insists on using "kewl" because it is shorter than "cool." (I forgive her, she's only 15) (No offense intended to any 15 year olds here, but sum of u need 2 lrn how 2 spel, jus sayin)

    'Butthurt' is a big one because it sounds like something a catty 14-year old would say to his or her fellow classmates. "What's a matter, bro? YOU BUTTHURT?"

    When referencing to death by hanging is the only time you are supposed to used hanged. "He was found in his cell hanged to death."

    I hate that so many people use it for other things.

    Words I would remove:

    yolo
    bogo
    feels (internet thing)
    internetz
    any word with needlessly replaced s's with z's

    in addition to words, there are few cliches i'm not too fond of.

    1) Slippery slope

    2) Soup to nuts

    3) only one way to skin a cat

    4) Going to battle

    5) Don't go there


    Hate 'em all..................there's more that I can' think of at the moment.
