It's a phrase from my mother's medical books. Pruritis: Itching of the Private Parts. Silly, but the capital letters still make me smirk 20 years later. And titter.

We were having a "words we hate" chat in college last week and the highest number of votes went to "slacks". For some reason, the word slacks makes my toes curl up.

Skort - they were actually uniform in my old job and are as stupid as the name.

Fiduciary - cracks me up everytime especially in the context of serious conversation it normally has to be used.
