I personally hate hearing
Insinuate: Ex-girl friend used it constantly.
So, what about you? what words make you cringe?
Ignorant. That was my grandmother’s ultimate insult, and it applied to EVERYTHING.
“Grandma I don’t like cheese”
“Don’t be ignorant”
“Grandma I can’t find the pillow”
“Don’t be so ignorant”
“Grandma you are a crazy alcoholic”
“You are so ignorant.”
Things like that. NOw when I here the word I want to beat somebody or something.
“No.”
“I have a headache.”
I detest the word `dude.’
Well the phrase “My bad” is starting to grind on my nerves.
Yes, I have a word I really hate. It’s “irk.”
I HATE the word “irk.” I REALLY hate it.
It…it…it…
IT IRKS ME!!!
Dammit, Nurse, where’s my medication?
I always hated the phrase “from hell”. It was so lacking in creativity. One didn’t have to describe what they were putting down; just say it was “from hell”.
You stole my line, Coldy! Hehehehehee!
What??
Yes, I know that it’s usually the woman that says that. Not in my house. :o
Can you tell I’m getting anxious for Mr Bear to get home? 
Dudes,
It irks me that you would insinuate I use words you don’t like.
No, I’m not ignorant, I just have a headache from hell, and feel like this topic applies to me personally.
If I have offended you, my bad.
Peace Out,
Mr. C
“yarn” as used to describe a story or tale
“Panties”.
Ugh.
i know this is ridiculous…but i hate the word formidable.
in canada, we have to learn french until grade10, and everytime i read a book and the author uses that word, my brain stops. the word gets the french accent on it and sounds out of place. then, i try to remember what the english translation the textbooks used was. gah. drives me batty.
I can’t think of any words that drive me crazy. My husband does though. He gets so upset when people use the word literally. He says that people rarely use the word correctly. Example: He literally makes my skin crawl.
“Would you please step out of the car, sir?”
My mother has a tendency to use “impinge” far too often.
I have a problem with ** actually
** and literally.
I happen to know a few folks who use
these words
waaay to often, and usually out of context.
“Actually, we went to the store,actually.
While there, actually, we got some olives to
literally put in our navels, actually.Then
Joyce literally had a fit over the size of my navel,actually.I
literally told her to go
soak her head, actually.”
Grrrrr…
Word up Mr. Cynical…LoL(I’m sure that will set some of you off).
The words that bug me are usually the words that mothers and fathers use for the bodily functions of their children.
Poopies, Poo, Poops, peepee…Etc. I find that more offensive than if someone used the more offensive terms for the same bodily functions.
And also general baby talk, you know where you have to wonder if the parents’ brain drizzled out their ear.
Oh, also… “true dat”, and there’s another that doesn’t quite come to mind right now, but I’ll post it when it surfaces.
its AWESOME, man!!

Ahh…I figgered out what word/term I HATE.
It is the term that seems to be used frequently in the east San Francisco bay, but trickled south…
“A grip”, as in “I saw a whole grip of fools wearing their hats broke off to the side…”.
-or-
“I got a grip of pens, want one?”
Didn’t know I was so good at Ebonics, eh? LoL
