Words/Phrases that bug you!?
Options
I hate when mothers call themselves "mamas" or "mama" with an animal attached ... "mama bear." Sorry, it just always comes off as contrived.
Just heard this the other day ... "baby moon" I guess a vacation you take before you have a kid?
"hubby" makes me gag, can't stand when guys say, "the wife."
anyone over 30 saying "selfie"
I know intentions are good with this one, but how water down has "thoughts and prayers" become?
It's car payment ... NOT CAR NOTE! lol annoying
I hate when grown women call men ... "boys." as in, "The bar last night was fun, there lots of boys."
For football fans ... anyone that says "prevent defense" was the reason a team being soundly beaten either scored a lot of points or came back for a win.

This is more of a grammatical irritant but I go mad over "you're" and "your" being used in the wrong context. The same with "Their", "There" & "They're".0

Lately, when someone verbalizes hashtag(insert random words/phrases here).
I get it when it's used in status messages in social media... but it serves no purpose when it's verbalized other than to make the person saying it sound like an idiot.0 -
Lets circle back on that point
It is what it is
Let me run it up the ladder
There's a bunch more but I have been out of the corporate world for a few years now.
And I have to agree with k8blujay2 - hashtags are really annoying unless you're on twitter or Facebook.0 -

^ I agree with that one, silly...also.....someone had mentioned "hubby", baby mama or baby daddy, trailer park trash, booty or booty call, someone calling their sig other or spouse "my ole lady" or "my ole man", psycho, stalking...people have ran some of these into the ground!!! I also tire of the young people referring to everything as "Gay" and calling each other the word "*kitten*." I don't like anything that's so repetitive that it becomes annoying point blank!0 -
guesstimate and double negatives ugh0

pecker and moist are the worst words in existence0

^^Agreed, also referring to them as puppies!
My vote for worst word is *kitten* - it makes me want to insert screwdrivers in my ears & pluck out my eyes.0 -

literally.
As in, my head LITERALLY exploded.
The perceived misuse of "random" used to raise my hackles until I listened to a segment on All Things Considered. The precise mathematical definition of "random" has been in use since the late 1800s but the word has been used to describe somethng that is lacking a definite purpose or unpredictable since the 1700s.0 -
"Like".
"That is like... so totally awesome!"
"And he like... lost weight."0 -
I don't like the words tid-bits, tiddlywinks, boobies, titties.
I can't stand when somebody asks me if I want a pop.0 -
panties and moist are the worst words in existence
Fixed it.0 -
When a grown man refers to himself as a "bad boy". If you're referring to yourself or letting others call you that, then you're not a man, period. It's childish.0
