What word are you tired of?

[AtLast]

Odd as this may sound, I'm totally tired of the word hot. Or, maybe I am tired of people assuming it means the same thing to everyone?
Here, it gets used mostly about sex and looks, it seems like. Just feels cliché. What could be more individually defined than those two things?


Is there one word or phrase that you feel this way (or another) about? And Why? And of course, disagree with me!

[sweetfemme247]

I am tired of the word change only because I am sick of people telling me you need to change in order to get someone to like me, i say no

HATE...my Least favorite word ever...you can dislike all you want but it is it Really Sooooo bad to Hate? that's a yikes word for me...

Tonight I am tired of hearing the word conservative. The word republican. The words tea party. Religious right.

I really agree with you. Never thought about what my response inside is when I just hear that word outloud. It IS a yikes kind of word. Lots of just ugly images hate brings up. Lately, politics have been spewing it all over and it makes me feel like nothing is going to done so that people can get back on top of their lives again- plus all the biogtry and anti-queer, anti-trans stuff. Other anti-stuff too that is just plain hate mongering.

Thanks for this!

I'm so tired of hearing people say "Shut Up"! As in "You're Kidding" or "No Way"!

When I first heard this expression I said :wtf: ...Why are they telling that person to shut up? Rude bastids.

Then I realized ohhh it's slang for that...

C'mon is it really difficult to say "You're Kidding Me" or "No Way"....?? :eyebrow:

"FUCKERY" is the word I'm tired of and can't believe there is 500 posts about it.

WTF? It incenses me everytime I hear it.... No one says, that so straight! Its classless and degrading... And it frankly rude...

[rlin]

i have to admit i am one of the dumbasses that use this word for everything...
it means good when it comes from me... i also tend to use the word sexy for something that is just good...
i think that i started doing it in response to folks that have the tendency to turn everything into a sexual connotation... i had a friend that imagined a smile as a come on... whoever it was smiling... so.. the evil started there...
yes AL... i agree with you whole brainedly... and i vow to myself at this moment that i am going to never say the word hot to someone like my mom or the mail man again...
im done... thats hot...

I call my cats sexy on a regular basis and they beam at me!!! Cause they are sexy boys!

[Nat]

I am afraid my own verbal ticks include many a "like," "um" and "yaknow." I wouldn't mind having better control of that.

I don't mind the word "hot," but I'm pretty tired of "hot mess."

I'm tired of the current racist connotations of the word "immigrant."

I am tired of hearing people say the tea party is "libertarian" when it simply is not - at least not socially.

I am sick of the term "politically correct" used as a get-out-of-jail-free card for saying awful things.

I am tired of hearing the word "retarded" used casually to refer to anything or anybody a person doesn't enjoy.

[Bard]

LOVE yes that four letter word that sems to me to be spoken to often out of obglitaion or someother need but not ment.. show it in your actions not just hollow words

[AtLast]

Can't is one that gets on my nerves, especially when it is just used as an excuse with a bunch of rationalizations that can be overcome.

Big difference between someone saying I can't that really can't and someone that just doesn't want to do something. just say I don't want to! or No!

I think I may have a crabby hang over from the election results....

:seeingstars:

[Jude]

Akin to "can't" is "BUT".

"I'd would do that, but......"

How about "I would do that and I'm not going to...."

AND is a better substitute for the word "but", which should be entirely eliminated from western vocabulary.

"But" and "can't" are EXCUSE WORDS.

Addendum:
BUT is a wholly unnecessary word. However, "butts" can be very nice.

Addendum, et al.:
I think "fuckery" is a useless word as well <ducking>

LOL... I hated work related acronyms! Even more, I hated when those that used (and made them up) did so with smug attitudes and would have that don't you know this look on their face when using them.

I guess after working a lot of years in education and government related jobs before going on my own put me in the midsts of this behavior. Then it happened anyway, but not as much.

Yes.. drama is another one. Get the general gist of it, but sometimes that isn't enough to understand what is going on.

"i'm sorry"--if you were it wouldnt have to come out of ur mouth every time you work

I'm in education. There should be a dictionary of acronyms. And I really super love it when they change the acronym to another acronym.

There's lots of drama in elementary school classrooms! :seeingstars: Fortunately, it's usually "easy stuff," just tiresome.

Had the oppurtunuty to do just that a while ago. I was at work and walked up to group of people talking just in time to hear, "That's so gay!" and responded, "That's so straight!" in the same condescending tone. There was a group pause, and then someone said, "I never thought of it that way." Another group pause...
Since then, I've not heard the phrase from any one of them - instead I'm hearing words like weird, stupid, not right.

[dale2555]

I'm tired of hearing dude; and I'm tired of hearing myself say absolutely.

I hardly ever have a solid handle on the intricate psychology of my own motivations. When I say I don't know its because I really don't know why I did something. Sometimes it takes me hours, days, weeks, years or decades to really understand why I did something.

I think the answer there is usually, "I wanted to have my cake and eat it too." or possibly, "I'm a jerk."

But then, I start thinking about Tess of the d'urbervilles and I imagine all kinds of tragic scenarios and then I start feelin sympathy for said character.

She is playing coy right now when asked if she will run. Why would she not? If she said no, she would lose a lot of money and she is making a lot of money right now and that IS her goal. Not the presidency. I think she is a joke and an embarrassment to women everywhere.

Doesn't matter if what is said points to her having no brain, she is getting a hell of a lot of free media attention and name recognition. Making me crazy!!

One of my college teachers had us do a little experiment....go through the weekend (it was a M W F class) and, every time we would have said 'sorry' to replace it with "I apologize". Though the point of the assignment wasn't strictly just to notice the amount in which we do, or not, say 'sorry' that was definitely a side effect. Everyone came back on Monday realizing just how much we say it, and, how often we do or do not mean it.

I am tired of people adopting animals without thinking ahead. People that adopt only to dispose of an animal because they move, it chews a piece of furniture or grows up and isnt baby cute any more. Adopting any animal is a life time commitment and if you can't make it, don't do it. No animal should suffer at the whims of a selfish human being.

[tuffboi29]

I don't know if this has been said yet...

The word "whatever".

Especially when used in that valley girl tone???? :|


Right..Disregard and disrespect everything I feel or say with one nails-on-a-chalk-board-self-absorbed-asshole word.

Yea.... :thefinger: you too.

I hear you Sachita, but also know from my own experience that the most wonderful intentions don't always work out....we got a full-size rough collie, expecting to keep her forever, but found that she was simply more dog than we could handle. She wasn't happy...and we weren't either. I ended up giving her to a friend of the family who adores her (and she him)...and she's now a happy dog. What pisses me off is people who get to that "oops" point and just dump them rather than find a better fit for them....and, even more, those that randomly breed puppies and kittens (either for money or just because they're cute). If you aren't a breeder who knows what they're doing...I truly believe all animals should be spayed or neutered.

As far as the word I'm (more than) tired of....I'm with the "whatever" crowd. Ugh! Disagree with me...fine. "Whatever" me....now I'm pissed.

Lately, I've been sick and tired of these words I keep hearing at work...."Bring a vent" and "intubate", especially at Christmas time. :(

Christmas
Holidays

And the phrases:

Don't sweat the small stuff.
What do you do for fun?

[Blade]

caint........yeah I know that isn't a word, but anyone who has or knows kids knows the word. For those who have kids with perfect grammar and perfect enunciation skills it's "CAN'T". It's all the same and I get tired of hearing it from adults and kids.

[Greyson]

Two words, "Ho" and "Bitch"

[afixer]

I got this

really?
if you fucking had it there would be no need to tell me that you do.

[Strappie]

FUCK YOU...

Sorry this word should be taken out of the English language. I don't mind the word FUCK.. hell I actually like it. But when it's used with YOU... Nope.... I like to open the door and push them out and say... nice knowing ya, but not really.

[Pixie]

Your.....

Not in the sense of ownership...but when a person is being selfish and self centered and they want to push off their connections to the issues on you.....

[Greyson]

Sup? .......

[turasultana]

socialize

as in "let's socialize that idea with the team before presenting to the seniors"

[JakeTulane]

Whatever.

Fine.

Just sayin'.

Nice.

[little_ms_sunshyne]

" I could care less"

It is "I COULDN'T care less"...Not that I usually notice these types of errors but when people use it, most likely it is attached to something negative. I want to reply..."Fine then care less!"

I'm sorta tired of the word "awesome."

[Ginger]

I'm also kinda tired of "...if you know what I mean," because often I don't, and I feel manipulated into consensus.

[thedivahrrrself]

Conversate. It's not a word, people! The word you are looking for is converse.

[Martina]

Did someone mention this? I didn't go back and read.

What I think is beyond dorky is saying "That's how we roll" or "That's how they roll."

I'm sorta tired of the oh-so-clever, made-up hash-tag finale on statements, as if to say, "It's so true, it warrants a website."

[alexri]

"Lifestyle"

(and it's cousin phrase, "alternative lifestyle")

A lifestyle is being a bowler, or a quilter, or a runner, or a stamp collector, or a birdwatcher, or a mystery book reader.

Being gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender is life, not a lifestyle.

[Duchess]

Politically correct:blink:

[Angeltoes]

Ho, bitch, slut...any of those words that are routinely used to shame and degrade women make me see red.

[Metro]

I'm tired of people wanting to "touch base" about something. I hear this all the time at work.

This overused phrase reminds me of a story shared with me by someone years ago...

Said person worked in an office with a manager who constantly used that phrase -- "let's touch base on that". So, unbeknownst to the manager, a small poster of Wrigley Field was tacked up on the break room bulletin board -- with a push pin "runner". Every time anyone heard the manager say "touch base" they were to advance the runner. The staff took bets on how many runs would be scored by the end of the week. I believe it was many more than my dear Cubbies could ever hope to tally.

[~ocean]

the expression "mybad" it weak and I tend to see that person as weak.

"sammich" or "sammy" it's sandwich period ~ lol.

[JAGG]

It is what it is. REALLY? How can something be anything but what is?

[Talon]

I'm tired of hearing worn out phrases like, "I feel you"...."That's sick"..."I'm gonna bounce"..."Don't be a hater"...these need to really be retired.

[Bleu]

Really?

...so sick of it.

I just want to say: YES, REALLY, motherfucker, REEEEAAAALLY!!!!!


(What I hate the MOST is that I catch my-stupid-self saying it too.) ugh:blink:

[Bleu]

It is what it is. REALLY? How can something be anything but what is?

...no offense JAGG...

[laruss]

the word is regardless, just regardless.
Irregardless is not a word, although it is so often used I wouldn't be surprised if they have given in and added it to the dictionary.
When someone says 'irregardless' it makes my teeth hurt and my hand clench in a fist.

[Ginger]

I'm not a big fan of "face time."

[Scorp]

Tired of the word: ROMNEY which = :shark: SHARK

[Prudence]

"OH MY GOD".... OMG! Enough already.

[Julien]

When I lived in Milwaukee, it was the phrase "ya der hey". I lived there for ten years and I still don't know what it means.

Also the word "seriously"

[homoe]

I lived in Milwaukee 25 years and still had no clue what it meant!

[SelfMadeMan]

[agape]

May I say a phrase instead of a word? In that case it's: "everyone has problems". I mean seriously how hard is it to grasp that not everyone has the same amount of problems, not every problem is the same and not every person has the same capacity, bakgrund etc. Can't we all try to respekt each others journeys? Life can be hard enough as it is...

[Cailin]

"i'm just saying." and then leaving it at that. Then there is the ever annoying 'cray cray'


also, all the newly added acronyms we have because we can't be bothered to type out a full word.

[JDeere]

The term WHATEVER!

[afrcnqueen]

I know this has been said a million times already, so here is a million and one:

"Like" (even though I am guilty of using it, I am not a fan of the word)

whatever ( ughhh come on)

cute ( to describe someone attractive, kids, dogs, cats, a shirt, basically everything)

irregardless ...is that even a word?!?

It is what it is ..... and what might that be? I want to cry every time I hear that

[cinnamongrrl]

The made up word of normalcy :| ...the existing word is normality.

[A. Spectre]

The made up word of normalcy :| ...the existing word is normality.

normalcy is legit. the made up word that people commonly use is normalacy.

[Candelion]

...but I hate its overuse. I swear, people use it to describe the most ordinary events.

e.g. "I went to the store to buy some dress socks. I found them right there in the sock section. Omg! It was so surreal." :|

[gotoseagrl]

When people overuse "right" in the form of a question while in agreement with something. Example ... Person 1: it's way too cold outside! Person 2: Right?! :sigh:

[Clyde]

"Adhesive".

[Daktari]

normalcy is legit. the made up word that people commonly use is normalacy.

Think you'll find normality is English usage, normalcy is American usage. Not heard of or seen it in Brit language usage, literature or media.
Never heard or seen t"other one you're telling me is a mistake.



Another over~used word I"m coming to loathe is "Boom!" as congratulatory exclaimation.
