kintaro 0 Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 My word is C%nt. I can't stand any use of the word by males or females. It is the ugliest word in the world to me. NONE LOWER!! But that's just me... My wife wanted to add: dekinai - without first trying - and- wakaranai - without first thinking by the way, while trying to post this I noticed I could't post the word "as is" ...for those who didn't get it, the missing letter was a "U" Link to post Share on other sites
amandanism 0 Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 not so much a single word, but i really hate when people use mobile text messaging shorthand on the internet/email - alot of my british friends use "txt spk" and it shits me to tears. it usually takes me longer to decipher whats being said with these supposed shortenings.

Yuki's Passion 1 Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Kintaro, Ahh mate, cAnt isnt that bad of a word without even attempting an alternative: shouganai without even trying: dekinai, muzukashi, muri etc without listening: imi ga wakarahen Link to post Share on other sites
rach 1 Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 The c word is not nice. without listening: imi ga wakarahen >>> good one. It's like, "I cant understand you coz you gaijin and I can't understand English - even tho' you speaking perfectly understandable Japanese" Link to post Share on other sites
farquah 0 Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 On the reverse words I love are Roly Poly, Chimney, and "my thats big!" Link to post Share on other sites

woywoy 0 Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 Otsukaresama desu. Shitsurei shimasu. Gomen nasai. Link to post Share on other sites
giggsy 0 Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 Not sure about this one. But I just want to say what a fantastic word "bollox" is. Link to post Share on other sites
damian 0 Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 24/7 is not even a word, but the Big Brother reality tv generation can take this word and piss off. Hearing 24/7 really ticks me. Also, a while back the word 'absolutely' was an affirmative catch phrase among the young and determined and it used to tick me as well. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted June 5, 2004 Share Posted June 5, 2004 A lot of people leverage words that should only be utilized in a very limited business context, and thus make tossers of themselves 24/7. Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted June 5, 2004 Share Posted June 5, 2004 due diligence I hate hearing people saying that, for some reason. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted June 5, 2004 Share Posted June 5, 2004 Well it certainly sounds like a lot more effort than one's customary due negligence eh? Link to post Share on other sites
badmigraine 0 Posted June 5, 2004 Share Posted June 5, 2004 "uptick" I really hate the word. "The economy showed a slight uptick in April." I hate it!! A lot. It seems stupid, pretentious and, well, just BONEHEADED DUMB. Another fake fad word that CNN Money talking heads now must use while that "cha cha cha cha ding" sound plays really fast in the background to make you feel like all kinds of important things are happening really fast and you are kind of in there in the special fast-paced space being informed.

cheeseman 1 Posted June 6, 2004 Share Posted June 6, 2004 I don't like hearing the word "moldy". It isn't nice. And if my cheese gets moldy it is a complete waste and annoys me. Link to post Share on other sites
Davo 1 Posted June 6, 2004 Share Posted June 6, 2004 Anything following "I'm sorry but..." often has an annoying side to it. Also anything descrbed as being "so-hot right now" Link to post Share on other sites
