Inspired by the "The Worst Insult" thread, what words (or phrases) do you hate?

Mine is "******". It's such a dull, unoriginal, tasteless insult, whether it's being used on a homosexual or not.

*Insert obligatory YOLO/swag/friend-zone references

If I were forced at gunpoint to choose a word I hate, it would probably be... kumquat

Because I have no idea what to envision when I hear that word

Well I used to hate YOLO, swag, bro etc etc then I started using them ironically and it's perfectly fine :3

It works so, so well in League.

"Have I ever told you about my YOLO and then Counter YOLO strat?"

"No what?"

"Ok you Ghost in (YOLO) then Flash out after tanking a shitton of damage (anti-YOLO.) Genius."

And

"You ok?"

"Yeah I just Swag'd out"

Then I called Cho's spikes the Swag Spikes on a whim once. The name stuck so hard.

I would say some of the more serious swear words but we all know I would be the one using it five seconds later XD

I'll just mirror the OP and say "******" Unoriginal as fuck but hey.

Might be cheating here because it's more than one word, but I hate the phrase "white water rafting".

I always get tongue tied end up saying "white water wafting" like I have a speech impediment. Damn that phrase! Damn it!

Clot/clotted. When people say clotted cream it makes me sick.

I saw some "strawberries and clotted cream" ice cream in the freezer and nearly threw up all over the kitchen.

Also, all the slang words for vagina.

Is the color similar to the combination of tears of shame, red blood from his mouth and the snot flowing?

Also, are we talking "teeth were lost" type of fall or "long flight of steps" fall?

DARE I SAY, A PRATFALL!?

"X is well documented" I don't necessarily hate the phrase, but it is far too often used as a replacement for finding actual evidence to support your position.

"noob" Again, it is far too often used as a way of saying, "Stop killing me!"

"quite frankly" Quite frankly, anyone who says this quite frankly needs to find a new phrase rather than "quite frankly". You see, "quite frankly" is quite frankly little more than fluff, and it quite frankly sounds awkward and annoying when it is said over and over again, quite frankly.

"quintessential" Like with the first phrase and "noob", it isn't that I hate this phrase. However, I constantly see it used by someone to make themselves sound smarter than they really are. However, it is humorous when someone says "most quintessential" and you get a chance to point out the redundancy of "most".

"percolate" Every time I hear this I just can't help but think about one journalist from CNN who overused it and was rather arrogant while using it. I'm not sure if she still uses it, though, as I haven't bothered to read anything on that site in a while.

"that's crazy" and "wow" I don't mind these used in moderation, but some people just use it over and over and over and over again.

Color is irrelevant, but I do believe a pratfall is the perfect description!

You can almost hear it... *kuhm-QUAT* *laugh track*

All the words norwegian journalists and language "experts" make to substitute english words that are used in norwegian. It's just horrible.

I know what I envision...

OT: Does it count when I say I genuinely hate US spelling? Whenever I see something like the word "color" I get a strong urge to scream.

Even 'Lady Garden'?

OT: 'Pathetic'. Don't know why, it just gets under my skin, like the vocal equivalent of someone scraping a rusty nail across my eyeball.

Ur totes quote stalking me!!!1!

:p

Even lady garden, although it's probably far from the worst. My auntie once told me off and said I should only use the term lady garden because everything else sounds crude XD

Slang words for masturbating are hilarious though. >.>

"Overrated"

Translation: I like this less than other people, and because I am always right, they are wrong for liking as much as they do.

My favourite are "Having a date with Jill" or "having a night in with Rosie and her five friends" or "strumming off" which I've started using now :D

It's 20 to 2 in the morning and I have an important exam to do today. Why am I looking at a list of synonyms for discharging the rod?
