Words You Hate

[livius drusus]

uvula/tubular/vulva
hottie

[viscousmemories]

smegma, mucus, larva

[dave_a]

hmmm... I rather like the word 'vulva' in fact I don't know what could be used to replace it.

For me I hate pretty much any word with an s on the end which ought not have an s. Most frequently I hear store names mentioned this way: Where have you been? Walmarts. Where did you get that at? Kmarts.

Then there is the mispronouced words that nobody has any excuse for mispronouncing like valentimes day.

Of course pretty much any ghetto slang terms instantly turn me off, but there are exceptions such as when a normal word like bitch takes on several new meanings. Those can be fun to play with. I mean how many different definitions for the word bitch are there?

Anyone remember that routine (denis leary perhaps?) on the usage of the word fuck? I think bitch has a lot more going for it personally.

A word I don't like the sound of: loaf.

[Corona688]

"lag"

As in,

* shaun screams, "laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaag"

Sweet mother of nobody, online chat couldn't be more annoying if people were actively trying. And no, it's nobody you know, unless there's a shaun here who knows they did that. In which case shame on you. You bastard.

Gant Chart (of which Chart always followed Gant, even though I never knew what it meant, but management loved them).

It's too big. Oh wait, I think I am getting into phrases I don't like.

Plus...just...for...Liv...

Cunt works for me. All those u/v/a words sound creepy to my ear. I'd far rather go anglo-saxon.

That may be the reason I'm totally with vm when it comes to the word "larva". It has no u, but it's still nasty.

That's interesting. Now that I think of it, I'm no great fan of the one vowel-final f combo. I don't like "oof" either.

Is it the word itself that bothers you, or just its lamer, elongated usage in chatrooms?

Now, see, that's just abusive.

The whole word has been tarnished in my mind.

[Lauri D]

pus.

(where's that barfing smilie....)

[livius drusus]

And I'm right behind you.

[wildernesse]

orthogonal

I hate this word. even more now that I know what it means. Not that its meaning bad.

[Adora]

moist
dentist
vulgar
vagina. It's just one of the worst words ever. Even "horny happy love-hole" is better than vagina.

[Scotty]

I guess you don't want a copy of "The Vagina Monologues" then?

-Scott

[dave_a]

so moist vagina and vulva are out, but dripping wet cunt and horny happy love-hole are in.

I will never understand women as long as I live.

Something tells me I better not try out this new vocabulary with the women at the office.

[livius drusus]

I'm not so sure about dripping. Maybe sloppy or soaking would go over better at the office.

[Ex-zombie]

Scrotum.

Come on, who thought that one up?

[livius drusus]

Yeah that is annoying, but scrote is hilarious. I just about peed my panties every time the dude on The Wonder Years called his brother that.

[squian]

phlegm - It looks and sounds ugly. Just like what it represents.

[lisarea]

Trousers, slacks, blouse, profanity, brassiere.

Also panties, except when it refers to gentlemen's delicates, as in when I wave a package of boxers and holler across a store, "HEY, LITTLE MUFFIN!!!! DO YOU NEED NEW PANTIES?!?!?"

AMEN! I hate that word. Not a big fan of "cunt" either. And I get to say "vaginal" and "rectal" all day long, since that's where a lot of our bacterial isolates come from. It's real fun when you get to give whole presentations on it. Like, say, in a job talk for a professorship.

Hear, hear!

No, don't....the last discussion on this ended up with all the women stating they hated the word "cunt" and wouldn't use it unless it were used conciously to be abusive to another woman. I guess I still don't know.

I agree that vagina is a funny word, after all, it sounds like a city in Saskatchewan. People are awkward about referring to it and tend to say, "that place right down the road from Moosejaw, eh."

As for vulva...well...a significunt portion of the population out there thinks it's a Swedish car with a good reputation for safety. I worked in a library as a teenager and had a middle-aged lady come in and ask if we had the latest _Consumer Reports_ with the article on the new Vulva. Heck, it made my day and the library staff had a good laugh after she left.

I think penis is a funny word, too. P words have a funniness, I think. I still like the old aphorism: The penis mightier than the sword. I think this is another reason there are so many alternate references and pet names for this appendage.

For me neoplasm, malignant and chemotherapy are some of the ugliest I know.

I've also come to suspect "hope" as insincere.

"Fescue" is odd.

[viscousmemories]

I've never liked the word vagina either. Of course now when I hear it I think of Alotta Fagina from Austin Powers.

[godfry n. glad]

...and I hate it when somebody pronounces the word "ask" as "ax".

Causal conversation seems to include blase' mention of attacking somebody with a sharp and deadly weapon.

C'mon...an ax is a cutting tool, for cryin' out loud!

I prefer "glistening" wet cunt, but that's just me and my artistic bent and the fact that being dripping isn't exactly the best thing for good sex (if there's not even a bit of friction, why bother?).

I'm kind of indifferent about "cunt" actually. It's a good word to use, but I'm not either way about it.

Oh, yes yes fuck yes on the "panties" thing. I have never heard that word until my mother mentioned something about it in a Mills & Boons she was reading once. I think I was about 14 and I just pissed myself laughing.

Then again, Yanks laugh at me when I call them "knickers", even though it's a bloody good word.

Oh, I hate the word Lard. It's exactly like it sounds and what it refers to.

[Ronin]

Burglariously and telephony.

What utterly idiotic words.

Utterly...utterly is another one.

Utterly, utterly, utterly.

Utterly.
