    Sugar-free (technically it's not sugar free it contains sugar alcohol!)
    Garantee - nothing is certain

    It's Guarantee. :bigsmile: Sorry I couldn't help myself. :laugh:

    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!
    Oh my gosh!! I thought I was the only one who understood this one!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you.


    The other one I can't stand is

    cre**** instead of credit

    Moist

    I have never liked that word

    Moist is the most horrid word on the planet.

    Ugh! I hate that word too. My boyfriend says it all the time just to gross me out.

    There is a beauty salon nearby called "Moisteane".
    It makes me cringe!

    I agree. It sounds pornographic.

    Sorry to double post, but I found it:

    I would have been very sad if no one got the reference. ^.^

    "pop" in reference to soda

    Don't visit the Midwest then!

    :laugh: :laugh: I agree. I'm originally from Missouri and the carbonated beverage is called pop. :bigsmile:

    I don't know if this counts as a phrase because it's only two words but I hate
    "same difference". My mom used to say it all the time and it would drive me insane!!

    Also she would say "wonderbar!" when she liked something, is that even a word??

    I don't like the word "snort" or "baby mama"

    I know there are more, just can't think of them right at the moment.

    I have a love/hate relationship with "mind blown." I never really liked it, but once I was in an elevator with a friend and this guy said something like "My mind was completely blown when I heard that." When we walked out my friend goes, " I wonder who sucked his mind." I can't help but laugh every time I hear that phrase now.

    *kitten*. Why not say "vibrator"? *kitten* just sounds bad.

    Not all *kitten* vibrate. Some hold political office.

    Because *kitten* and vibrators are not the same thing? *Sex ed hat on* *kitten* can sometimes have vibes in them, and vibrators can be shaped like *kitten* or they can be shaped like oh say a small egg for hrm, "spot treatment". =P

    *sex ed hat off, troll hat on* And there is a real *kitten* shaped like Obama called "Head of state" if I recall right. There's also a white sparkly one made after the Twilight vampires... *takes off trollhat now that she's scarred people...*

    This was the first word that popped into mind when I saw the thread title. There are other things, but they're weird, I think, and I'll leave it at that.

    "Try and" instead of "try to." Boy does that make my nutty!

    I also hate it when someone uses a big word to try to sound impressive (or for whatever reason) and uses it INCORRECTLY!! I am always telling my husband "I don't think you meant what you just said" or "do you have any idea what you just said?"

    I am so tempted to comment on people's facebook posts when they use the wrong homophone. (And then last week I went and did it with "roll" instead of "role" ... yes, sir, you do fill the roll of president ... with butter.)

    Oh, and not a word, but the absolute dearth of punctuation some people have. Especially when there is a long post with no periods or even sentence structure.
    "Let's eat Timmy" instead of "Let's eat, Timmy." Commas, they save lives!
