I fucking HATE this word (light hearted)

... delicious.

It gives me The Ick. Hate it. When I am Queen it shall be executed. Ironically I don't really mind the worst moist, which is universally hated. What words do you hate? Don't really like the word "meal" either. It's just so... weak.

Hate "sarnie" as well, it's a SANDWICH. In fact I think most of the words I dislike are somewhat related to either food or eating. I have severe misophonia so it's probably triggered to that.

Scrummy
Parent as a verb

Poorly- as in feeling ill poorly.

Recently found out my ds also hates it and has done since he was little. He’s apparently even muttered “I hate that word”
when my mother used it once when he was about 5yo

he’s a huge hulking teen now and only just told me.

oh and anyone who calls themselves Mummy. Especially when the kids are older or worse <shudders> adults.

my oh mother (utterly neglectful of oh when he was a child) signs her cards from Mummy and it iks the shit out of me.

Same. Also coitus and intercourse.

Others:
Biccy/choccy biccy
Issue or tissue when it's pronounced with the 's' sound rather than the 'sh' sound.
Lunch
Chicken
Grab

I also hate when people say 'run the hoover around' because it makes me think they'll be running around with the hoover doing a slapdash job and hitting lots of furniture.

MrsLargeEmbodied · 28/05/2022 13:45

some of you are such fusspots!
and i bet you hate that word!
