    "Butthurt", a word I happily did not even know existed until I spent some time on the MFP message boards

    The word "girl" to refer to adult females. I am not a child.

    The "just break up" comment left multiple times on nearly every relationship-oriented thread, and each person who writes it thinks they are wildly original and creative and hilarious

    "literally." bc NO ONE READS ANYMORE! let's just say "actually", plz...

    UNKEMPT

    There is no freaking reason for an M in there! Her hair was well kept. Her hair was unkept. Who the heck put the M in there and why? If time travel is ever possible I am going back and have a serious talk with whoever did this.

    Yes. Totally agree.

    Me, I'd eliminate "nippy" in a heartbeat.

    I like changing it to "nipply" personally. "It's a titty bit nipply out here."

    Sorry but you're wrong.

    Unkempt means having an untidy or disheveled appearance.

    UnKEPT means a commitment or undertaking not fulfilled.

    Gluten is a product that makes breads rise. It is also a product that's in a lot of foods. There's a disease called Celiacs which causes a person to have an intolerance to gluten so it's not over used.

    Greek is just a certain process when yogurt is made. I believe it has to do with how many times it's strained

    Organic - yeah, that one IS overused and meaningless

    I'm surprised with the dislike of "boobies." Boobies is such a fun word! Boooooooobies. I mean say it, it even sounds good coming out of your mouth.

    About 1 million people suffer from Celiacs. There are 313 million people in the US. Oddly though, I seem to frequently meet Celiac sufferers. Mostly affluent white women.

    Fine, so there are 70 versions of Greek Yogurt littering the cold case. That doesn't make it overused. When it shows up in the cereal aisle though coating raisons I call BS.

    not a word but "where do you get your protein" SHUTUP

    You must not eat meat? That question bugs me to no end! No one cares about your protein intake until you stop eating meat

    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.

    Cray cray *shudders* Makes me want to slap someone
