    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!

    "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!

    'Irregardless'...unfortunately people have bastardized this word right into the dictionary...ARGH.
    Zit, pimple, blackhead, whitehead...bleh...these words should all be removed and replaced with 'blemish.'
    Diarrhea or 'bubble guts'...JUST DONT TELL ME
    Vagina, penis, and all the dirty slang words. I just say vaj and peen...a little better I guess.
    The #1 word I hate more than anything is (sort of dirty)..'fingered, fingering'....EW EW EW


    Ummm vagina and penis are not dirty slang words, they are the correct words to use to describe male and female genitalia.

    I'm with you. I never understood people using slang words to say vagina or penis. Saying vagina or penis is no dirtier than saying ear or knee. :huh:

    I hate when people say "Pacifically" instead of "Specifically" My sil does this all the time. Also, Oakmeal, instead of Oatmeal.
