“Awesome”
Thank god I don’t hear it as often as I used to but still extremely annoying. Never used it and never will.
cos, unless talking about the variety of lettuce.
“asked” cuz I can’t pronounce it. Don’t know why. it comes out “assed.”
And on that note, unless I’m speaking french I’m not a big fan of dont. 
Automatic roll-eyes for anyone who describes a film or novel as poignant. Whenever I went on field trips in elementary school, my teachers would usually ask us what we thought about the experience afterwards. I’d generally say “interesting and informative” - sufficiently vague, but sounds like I paid attention. Poignant is the grown-up version of those two words.
particularly - way too many syllables, say it out loud to yourself and see if I’m not right. probably is a close second.
bling bling - mostly because I’ve never heard it used in a sentence where the speaker sounded remotely intelligent.
“I was all like” or “I went…” - No you weren’t like and you didn’t go, you said. You sound like a 12-year-old moron when you talk like that.
“Cliche” for the same reason you don’t like “genre”.
I can’t say it without getting the image of a beret-wearing, cigarette-smoking urbanite, scoffing at whatever item is in question and using the phrase “Oh, ____? How cliche…”
Aurora, simply because I (think I) sound like an idiot when I try to say it. Doesn’t roll right of my tongue…
“Gumption”. I had an evil grandmother who used to rail about how I, and my brothers and sister, had none.
“Dungarees”. She also objected to the wearing of blue jeans if one was not actually working in the construction industry or roping horses.
“Sucks”, as in “Hey, didn’t Showgirls suck?” First of all, using the word in this way all but says: “I dislike something but I haven’t nearly enough brain power to describe what it is about it that I don’t like”. Secondly, what is sucking on what exactly, and why is that bad?
-TellMeI’mNotCrazy
Ha… yeah, that one’s not fun to say. I’ll be trying to say something about the Aurora Borealis, which is supposed to be this beautiful thing… but it comes out terrible. “Uh rah ruh Borealis”… yeah…
I also hate plethora; to me it’s one of those words that sound unnecessarily pretentious. Like ‘effectively’, when people use it to mean ‘pretty much’. Blech.
Utilize. I hate the word utilize in any form or fashion.
**Functionality[/Bmakes me want to scream.
Not true. “Hanged” is just a quirk in the grammar of an irregular verb. Probably all transitive uses (hanging something up, or someone) once used this form for the past tense. If you say someone was “hung”, meaning executed, that just sounds really odd to me. German is similar: the basic verb “hangen”=“to hang” is irregular, but the transitive verb “verhangen” is regular.
Word I hate: ‘holistic’
Why: It is used too often by consultants, charlatans and various other snake oil salesmen.
“You need to” meaning “I need you to, and I am in charge”, or “the rules of this establishment require that you”.
OTOH I don’t mind the phrase when it really is the person being addressed who is doing the needing.
“Crock”, as in "it’s a crock [of s***].
“Crap”. For some reason, I find this more offensive than s***.
And another word that I loathe : ‘like’- when it is used by brain dead teenagers, like in every sentence.
Like, oh my god, me too! (Couldn’t resist)
I’ll add another one:
In dubitabily.
You hear it on cartoon shows, a wise owl always says it when he/she means of course. I absolutely cannot pronounce it, unless In due bit a bit a bly, is the correct pronunciation.
Indubitably?
In-doo-bit-uh-blee. Yeah, I always struggle with it too :o
Those are the exact two I was going to mention.
I hate the word “Belly” too. I can somewhat tolerate it when it refers to a pregnant woman, but I still don’t really like it.
On that note, I hate all of the cutesy terms for pregnancy. I wanted to kick people who refered to me as “preggo,” “preggie” or “preggers.”
In regards to making a selection…
I don’t say “pick;” I say, “choose.”
I guess it’s just because “pick” sounds harsh and reminds me of nose picking, scab picking, etc.
