Title: Words I Don't Like
Post by: Yeti on December 20, 2008, 05:06:50 PM
....besides the obvious, Dallas, Cowboys, Texas blah blah blah I have discovered that the word "Dollop" gets on my nerves.  I hate the word and its gotten to the point that I hate people who use the word.  Am I the only one who gets annoyed by a random harmless word.  If I am not, please, feel free to post the word you hate.

"Per se".  We used to have a contest during our weekly meeting, over/under on how often the dept head would use it.

Its not a word, but "anywho"

People who say that should be killed instantly.

"Verse," especially when it is mistakenly used instead of "versus."

Whimsy/whimsical. People who say this, especially those who say it while smiling, need to be punched in the face until they stop moving.

I hate it when iceholes respond to something I've said with "correct."

Yeah, I know it's correct, dicksucker.  If it weren't correct I wouldn't have said it.

Online, when people use "Prolly" instead of "Probably", it makes me want to kill.

I hate getting that kind of verbiage on "formal" academic research papers.  From supposedly "advanced" students.

Advanced people in Florida are like average people elsewhere.

I was watching a show about Moose and they said the Moose was developing a "Dewlap".  I said to myself "There's another word I hate."  Maybe because it is so similar to Dollop.  But I like the word Dollar.  hmmm.

I would hope that sort of thing would be an automatic fail.

Of course.  Then I get to hear them whine about it.  Then I get to write a detention.  Makes my day!
