What word are you tired of?
 

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!

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

Like- As in, "Like I get what you are saying but like I disagree.

Hearing it, makes me throw up a bit in my mouth. :readfineprint:

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:

"problematic"

" REALLY?" in that incredulous and insulting adolescent tone...

Really?? You're tired of hearing this word..Really Jess??? "SHUT UP"...No "fuckery" way..... :raspberry:

Tired of fuck .... just about every meaning it has or is used for. LOL... I think I need a vocabulary building class!

:byebye:

Tired of the Word.....
 

Conservative.......

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...

IMHO (Usually there isn't anything humble about the rest of the sentence)

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.

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 [B]I don't want to! or No![/B]

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

:seeingstars:

But, But, But......
 

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>

I'm tired of patches

Assumptions.

rigor and relevance
specificities
Work-related acronyms that no one knows what the fuck they mean


AAAAND...

drama

unless it's about a llama

in red pajamas.

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.

Llamas are nice....

ROTFL.. Ut, Oh.. bet I get dinged!

Is mainstream starting to bother anyone else?

Obligation
"but"

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.
