To think that there are some words that should be obliterated from the English language?

[peggotty]

Like 'snicker' for example, it makes me think of spotty American teens, or even worse, the bloody Twilight books where they were snickering all over the effing place. Whoever heard of a snickering vampire fgs?!

Oh crap, my outrage appears to have created 2 threads!!! Ignore other one. (and possibly this one as well as the case may be!!)

YANBU. Vampires brood. They don't snicker. How can they seduce if they're snickering?

Besides, it's a stupid word.

Vampires would never snicker! I actually don't remember reading they snickered in Twighlight but it is very wrong

flange.

Flannel. I hate it.

Twilight vampires don't just 'snicker' they are sparkly too!! (I read the books and am ashamed as I enjoyed them but sparkly WTF?) Anyway, bit of a tangent, a FB friend had as her status once "In my day vampires sucked blood not cock" which kinda sums up my own feelings for the modern day vampire.

Snickering I have never heard it
Does it mean they are scoffing Snickers? if so I am caking at the moment!

Frickin, Twunt, arse biscuit and twonk.

gobsmacked

Any noun that someone stuck "ize" on the end to make it a verb.

Top of this hate list is:

"burglarized"

Vomit emoticon.

Lippy (for lipstick, lippy as in fond of backchat is fine)

Feisty, sassy or any other words used solely to describe and diminish women.

Footie. No one who says it genuinely follows football.

i have mini snickers right here and am now eating them thanks to this thread. you should all be ashamed of yourselves

i despise the word throb.

Isn't snicker just American for snigger?

Hubby, it's awful and cringeworthy. Funky, just a personal pet hate but I'd be happy to never hear anything described as 'funky' again.

Pert.

It just revolts me.

I remember when it was Marathoning.

Panties. Yuck!

Ooh ooh Miggsie I heard

incentivise on the television yesterday

surely that's made up?

what's wrong with the good old fashioned motivate ???

Gusset.

I just dropped my biscuit in my tea when I thought of it.

(The word - not my gusset - iyswim).

Oh dear I used both snicker and gobsmacked just yesterday.

Personally I would vote for Nag (for a horse is fine).

It drives me crazy, it's just a way of putting down (usually a woman) for having to repeatedly ask someone to do something that they should have done the first time.

See, when used at the beginning of a sentence as short for "Do you see?"

Snicker

They 'chuckled' in Twilight. Fucking chuckling Vampires.

gusset is one of my favourite words just now due to my granny pant obsession and a friends suggestion i 'gok my gussets'

gok my gussets! 'Edward snickered at Bella's pert panties'.
