what words annoy you?

[Religion]

"Cuisinart"

 

[bklyncat58]

one of the things that gets under my skin is what people call a pen a ink pen . as in can I use the ink pen . what else is in a pen but ink

 

[SilverBear]

Anything beginning with "my"... as in:
myDocuments
myEmail
myVideos
myPictures

What are we, in kindergarten?
myDiaper
myPabulum

 

[Picklesworth.]

Redudancy i.e "Me, myself, personaly." That drives me nuts. Also i hope "My bad" has been covered allready. Refering to a parent as a "baby momma" that too.

There are a couple of phrases that sort of bother me...

"For god sakes" instead of "for god's sake". Doesn't make any sense.

And, "I could care less". If there's still room for you to care less, then apparently you do at least care some. If anyone took the time to quickly think out what they're saying, they'd say "I couldn't care less".

"Münchausen"

 

[Winkos]

"Confront" bothers me. People use it when it is not needed. If I approach someone to discuss something I do not confront them. Yet the word gets tossed around instead of "approached, discussed, asked, etc...

 

[brewsterfrank]

"dude"
it is the worst thing for me to hear.

 

[Maxine]

Ant instead of Aunt
Milkshake instead of frappe
Soda or pop instead of tonic

Paradigm
Closure

Irregardless... nobody's watching the lake

It really bothers me to see mis-used words--that are phonetically correct when spoken, but when written have a different meaning. "He stepped into the whole." (hole) Or "She put the book over their." (there) I see this a lot online! (Or on-line?) lol!

"In regards to..." or "With regard to..." are so overused IMHO.

"Regarding..." sounds less pretentious.

 

[Religion]

"Summer" or "Winter" when used as verbs.

 

[SilverBear]

"Tem-pit-chur" does not equal "temperature".

"Nup-chew-ells" does not equal "nuptials".

 

[whiskey]

Sup folks?

 

[SilverBear]

"flameless candle"

...then it is NOT a CANDLE, you freaking ......!!!

I have an "issue" (sorry Bear LOL) with "hot water heater". If the water is hot, why do you need to heat it?

I have an "issue" with your post. See Page 1, posts #3 and #8. There is an echo in here.

"Pedal to the metal"... every car I've seen has carpeting under the accelerator.

 

[BILLB OKC]

"LOL" is most annoing
