What completely inoffensive words can't you stand for no good reason?

[AintNobodyHereButUsChickens]

I cannot stand it when people say spuds instead of potatoes. No idea why, I just hate it!
Will the spuds be ready soon?
Just pick some spuds up while you're at the shop.
The spuds need peeling.
Etc etc 🤮 Awful!

Granny.
Please use Nan.

I was reading a book yesterday and the protagonist had an unexpected visitors, she greeted them with "what a gorgeous surprise". I have no issue with the word gorgeous but used in that context makes me uncomfortable and I can't think why. Also can't stop thinking about it!

I hate Hun, babycakes, peng and 2 words and I have no rational to why I hate them but cereal and nap! They irritate me so much.

Womb

Also baby daddy/mama

'lil' instead of 'little'.

Gaaaah shudder

Gnash
Fixer upper
Scrotum

Gubbins 🤮

Dosh.
Crispies (instead of crisps)
Nap nap.

Likkle, hospikal, bokkle anything that should be 'tle/tal' makes my toes curl.

Scoff......makes me feel quite unwell 🤢

Meds,
Ended up in hospital/A&E/OOH,
Blue lighted,
When people say they're 'doing' or have 'done' a holiday destination or attraction it sounds so aggressive and rude,
Sourced or source instead of bought or buy,
Chucking, slinging, bunging or picky when talking about food,

Belly. In any context.

Calling tattoos 'ink'

Stop it.
No.

I work retail. I have tattooed yes.
I DONT WANT TO TALK ABOUT THEM.

Medal when used as a verb, which happened a lot during coverage of the Rio Olympics. Made me clench hard.

Chocs/toms/pots/biccies (or bicbics as my ex mil said)

Also can't bear the phrase "come of age"

Supper. I irrationally hate the word.

Hun

Yes to quite a few listed so far but I absolutely cannot abide ‘bits’ or ‘picky bits’🤮🤮🤮
‘Oh we’re just having picky bits for tea’...
‘DH and I will just have a few bits later on..... but ‘picky bits’ is especially nerve jangling, even typing it is making me angry. It sounds like bits of skin or something picked out of a nose...... just stop it!

Prosecco, that's so funny, my mum said, upon the birth of first grandchild, that she'd disinherit anyone who dared to refer to her as Nan as opposed to Granny. She irrationally hates the word Nan.
Great thread.
I have strong feelings about certain words for different reasons. In some cases, it is just that the particular combination of sounds makes my skin crawl: flesh is my aaargh-word. Weep (as in 'the sore was weeping') is another one.
Other words I cringe at because of specific connotations that come with the usage: all the hubby, mumma, hun and similar, comprehensively covered in previous posts. Wouldn't say them in a million years, but not because of how they sound.

Yummy.
Artisanal.
Bubbly as in “she’s bubbly”

'Of a morning/night'
'simples'

Poppet, thank you for clarifying 'picky tea'. I read it on page 1, tried to figure it out, failed. Is it a meal which consists of a mixture of left overs and freshly prepared dishes and condiments, such as cold meat, salad and bread, or a 'picking random stuff out of the cupboards as can't be fucked to cook'? Is it a group thing or a private luxury?
