      As an adult, I'll say what I damn well please. However, I have enough sense/respect for my own personal vocabulary to not utter words associated with thugs or your average sorority poster child. Unless I am mocking said thugs/sorority girls.

      Sghetti, Sketti or any other variation.

      Except Amber... because I like Amber she is allowed to use whatever she wants.
      wait a minute.... you never have a problem when I say sghetti.... :(

      Amazeballs.
      Totes.
      Adorbs.
      Selfie.
      Yolo.

      ...again? " Picture taken of one's own self with cell phone in a dirty bathroom" is so cumbersome.

      "Word" or "werd"

      Ratchet

      Dat Azz - if you're 40, just don't. Altough calling it a "derriere" is creepier.

      Yummy, yum, or nom nom nom

      "We need to talk...."

      I HATE it when adults use those words!!
      Whenever I hear that I say "NO, we'll talk now" no way am I dragging that crap out.

      I agree with this one.

      Adults speaking "baby talk" in general drives me crazy. I don't want to hear that your tummy-wummy hurts.

      I used to work with a woman who constantly said "rut roh" (which I guess is a Scooby Doo reference? I've got no clue) instead of "uh oh" and I wanted to punch her so badly.

      I think it's made worse by the fact that she has mentioned numerous times that she has a UTI from not going "potty" enough. Barf.

      1. Haters- seriously. Nobody is "hating" on you. Truthfully, nobody cares.
      2. Slut-WHY would a grown woman use this word? I mean we've all gone home with some Rico Suave after too many cosmo's, right?

      3. "Class" in regards to sports- Really? Look at football? Class? No.


      Add your own. These are just a few of the most ridiculous ones

      Agree on 1 and 2, but "class'? I'm not sure what you mean but that with regards to sports. Can you use it in a sentence? Can I have the word origin?

      Of course those are my favorite words...

      Personally, I hate it when women are called b**ches... we aren't dogs. I don't care if it makes you (in general here) feel empowered... it just doesn't sound nice or respectful.

      A lot of the slang words just don't sound right coming out of my mouth. But yeah, Cray cray is pretty stupid... and I use it to tick my husband off when he is being a pain in my butt at that moment.

      The majority of this reads to me as "words you should add to your vocab posthaste!"

      How about asshattery?

      Fine. You can keep it, but you have to admit it's not a real word.

      Gigantic + Enormous = Ginormous

      IRL in a conversation

      Any internet slang or shorthand in a live conversation annoys me to no end.

      Yummy is another one that bugs me. "Mmm, this is so yummy."

      That's just b/c you've never heard anyone say it about your ****.

      My boss, a woman in her 30s, said this recently:

      "This borrower is making me cray-cray."

      So, if you can't just say "crazy", STFU!
