"pop" in reference to soda
"crick" instead of creek
I don't like words that end in a -eded sound when I have to say the word "it" afterwards. Like "I took the eggplant and breaded it" For some reason, I get really hung up and end up saying "breadedededed ed it" Makes me angryThe worst is "edited it" Terrible phrase!

The turgid responses are boring me. What necessitates this pedantry? (I am sure I messed up the context of them their fancy wurds I wuz trying to use, hope your not mad at me, maybe I could care less, ok, its a mute pointe, their are myriad reasons to ignore my response but irregardless I am sure some of you will read it.)0

When you purchase something in a store and say thank you. The sales person says no problem.0

SQUAT!! I hate that word!!!
Oh, and I hate it when someone says "sup" (Let me have a SUP of that!) It's SIP! Errrr.... lol0 -
Thingamajig. Used by people who have no thought process.
As in "that thingamajig over there".0 -
I hate the words breast, penis, vagina and tits. I'd rather say boobs, junk, crotch, or private parts lol. I also hate the words pubic, moist, *****, diarhea (sp?), pus, succulent, regurgitate, piss, the f word, mutt(mixed breed dog), b word, and other sexually derogatory words!! Apparently I could never read a romance novel and medical text books can make me gag! Also curdle and puffy!! Wow I could go on...0

Any word that is blatantly misspelled is annoying to me. I'm not a champiun speller or anything (hehe!) but it just annoys me.
Also, I hate expressions like, 'Wassup', or 'Dude', or 'ah man!'...0 -
financial
politics
(both make me sigh)0 -
Oh and teenage grunts, that could either mean yes or no.0
-
I really hate "purposely". It's a clumsy derivation of "on purpose" and should really be replaced with "deliberately".0
-
ANY word if it's not pronounced properly:
warsh instead of wash
expecially instead of especially
bolth instead of both
anchilada instead of enchilada
treadmeal instead of treadmill
and the worst....
Walmarts instead of Walmart
ha ha ha ha Ditto!!!0 -
ASAP
That's not really a word, but people use (abuse) it as one. I cannot stand it. I do not mind if you spell out, as soon as possible, but if you say ASAP, it sounds like you mean "immediately" or "right this second." And I just don't respond well to that.0 -
No, contagious, guilty, rash, diarrhea, no, stop, why, 'sorry, we're closed', and no. These all annoy me.
hahaha...im guessing you dont like being told "no"
i hate hate hate when someone is telling me a story and they say "know what i mean?" after every sentence they say. i mean, am i suppose to say yes every time or something??0 -
Don't know if this counts but working in sales I get the term "you people" thrown around a lot and as soon as i hear it I become livid!0

Walmarts instead of Walmart
this made me laugh! my husband says warsh lol he was sitting right here when i read it! everytime he says it is scream ITS WASH!!!! oh and the walmarts, i know a few people that say that and so when my sister and i hear it we laugh and then later when we are poking fun of them we say it and now its a damn habit! thats what we get! oh and this person also calls shreveport shrevesport! makes me crazy! with that said i need to go to Targets today! :laugh:
My husband will hear someone mispronounce a word and will use it in conversation like a joke. Most of the time though, the people he is talking to don't get the joke and think he really says the word that way. One example is "strimps" instead of shrimp or "scraw" instead of straw. I also fuss at my kids for using "my bad"...drives me crazy.0 -
ax instead of ask
and when someone says "I could care less"......it's couldn't! You couldn't care less! It takes everything I have not to correct them!
I agree! I worked with kids who had to go to college over summer before being accepted in the fall, they'd all wander up to 'ax' me a question, and I say, "No you cannot 'ax' me anything, try again!" they finalyl got it but man there were a few days I thought I was going to die.
What really bothers me is when people use 'big' words incorrectly. Nope, that's wrong. I know I can do it, but I'll ask if it is the wrong word or not. It annoys me.
However if a boy uses juxtaposition correctly...I pretty much swoon. No idea why.0
