Words that people say that you would like to eliminate from their vocabulary

[higgyburners]

"Honestly"

I can not stand to listen to someone that starts off their sentence with honestly. A good place to find this is listening to sports interviews or right here on this very forum.....:leaving:

[mtnman]

Any of the words that kids use now because they're too ****ing lazy to say the whole word. Like bae instead of babe.

[Bruze]

Like

Yes, that ^

PLUS:

I wish people would learn that "then" and "than" are not the same word and have completely different meanings. I see memes all the time that are making good points, but use one of the above words when they meant the other. It pretty much ruins the message.

PLUS: Young idiots putting the dollar sign AFTER the number, as in 125$. "But that's how you pronounce it." Yes it is you ****ing idiot, but we have silent vowels, the letter "G" can be hard or soft, the letters "gh" usually sound like an "f," and a zillion other examples of the nuances of English. LEARN YOUR NATIVE LANGUAGE.

diversity, inclusion, equity, transgender, "cis," speak truth to power, speak my truth, do the work, etc.

Well, actually I'm OK with etc.

Two words, cease and desist. That is all.

When I was still working, every time a vendor or salesman started a pitch with "honestly" I would ask if I should assume he was lying if he didn't out that "honestly" on the record. I hated that.

That's a pretty rude thing for a prostitute to tell you.

Hint: Pay her afterwards. https://i.postimg.cc/tCLrF1Jj/whistle.gif

Over the years I have learned that when I cry, she gives the money back.

I would be happy if people would stop using the word "contact" as a verb. So many people were misusing it that Merriam-Webster relented and started allowing it back in the 50's. I personally feel that was the start of our downward slide as a country.

Millenials are "terrified" of everything.

and everything makes them"uncomfortable"


:rofl:

[Frankie the Fink]

"Like" used inessentially by Millennials, something IS what it is, not "LIKE" what it is.

"Bro" that stupid head-banded twit on "Counting Cars" uses "bro" two dozen times in one sentence when talking to strangers - like he's some distant, estranged relative.

Nigga can be used effectively. You can call a nigga a nigga, because the word ends with an a instead of er.

[roadpilot]

One word that is over used daily Awesome.
Save it ,for when you see someone walking on water.

[Frankie the Fink]

cisgender, man-splaining, man-spreading, intersectional, transphobic, deplorables, etc. and ALL the woke words to try to label people as this or that...

[snide]

Partner. As in, referring to a spouse as "partner".

[Kevin68]

At the end of the day...

[Kevin68]

Honestly, if I had a dime for every transphobic nigga who is offended by, like, trump’s man-splaining that reparations are non-inclusive because the, like, cis- and LBGTQ+ will claim that their diversity is not represented and should get reparations too. I hate to brag, but I’m certain that at the end of the day Biden’s woke constituents will be shouting “get off me you sweaty bastards” to MAGA republicans irregardless of how many voting machines they tamper with. But let me circle back to the transphobic niggas who’s loved one’s will absolutely claim double reparations because they can’t live on a low nut without their nuts, but no worries, and I’m not going to lie, Trump will be sitting in the front of the courtroom saying, will the defendant please rise?

I need to knock the teeth out of people who do that. :yesnod:

Anymore, when used in a present-tense or past-tense construct. :slap:

Correct: JW38 doesn't drive an Audi SUV anymore.
Incorrect: JW38 drives a different German shitbox anymore. :slap:

Gaslighting, at least until they realize it is not useable as a reply to a question.

[mtnman]

"Anxiety" or "mental illness". Both grossly overused these days...

Another annoying one that is overused: “basically” :ack:

But never for mass shooters -- it's always the gun's fault. You dare not ask if the shooter is mentally ill, or is on prescribed mind-altering drugs.

"It's the guns, stupid."

I would like to see us get the word cancer out of our vocabulary very soon.

"Afro-American" is a stupid word. Their ancestors have been in this country longer than practically everyone else but you don't see white people calling themselves Euro-Americans :rofl:

[the new me]

This thread makes it clear that we need to get rid of the entire language and start over.

Oh wait, they're already doing that.

Bro

WTF? Used to be something only outlaw bikers said to each other. Now every Tom, Dick, and Harry uses it in every other sentence.

I've never used the word, not even speaking to my actual brother. Some stranger calling me "bro" better have a good reason for me to overlook this or they're walking on thin ice.

[dvarapala]

"Aggressive Driving"

What most people call "aggressive" is actually just "assertive", i.e. not being a ****ing doormat on the roads. :yesnod:

I vaguely remember a poster over at the other place that called everyone “Bra”
I think he was a cop or something.

Pegs my suspicion meter. Could be their way of manipulating potential victims into trusting them. Same as criminals who wear a gold cross around their neck.

A few people I work with love to say when wanting to get into more detail on something... "let's double click on that" . I want to strangle them.
