What word are you tired of? - Page 7

JAGG · 12-07-2010, 04:46 AM

Empowered sick of this word since it seems those mostly who use it are far from being empowered. Seems like if you have to texplain to someone how you're empowered, you probably aren't.

No one asked me. And I don't want many of the things the so called "American People" want. Aren't I part of the American People?

Ok, I will get off my box now. But it vexes me every time I hear that phrase. grr!

I really like this comment! LOL

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.

It cancelled my trip to the mountains last Saturday. Now they are calling for it again this weekend which means my plans for Christmas will likely change.

OMG me too! You know I actually saw this phrase on a Confederate flag that was flying in front of a house in the town where I work.

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 · 12-22-2010, 09:25 AM

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....

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.
