What's your least favorite word?

[medicmummm]

I'll start off...

Claggy

Clergy- just sounds like a disease

What's yours?

Noms

I'm a Christian and when I hear people use the words 'Jesus' or 'Jesus Christ' as a swear word, it's like nails down a blackboard for me. It gives me such a serious ice and makes me so uncomfortable in a way that nothing else does.

Ick not ice

Favorite

Tummy, when used by/ about adults. Horrible.

Necking
Sponge

Nom, noms, nom nom nom

Awesome

Cusp

Toilet, snot, snotty, belly, shit, shag, shagging, hubby. (When people describe their children as being a bit ‘snotty’ it makes me feel a bit sick for some reason.)

@Thejoyfulstar I admit to saying 'Jesus Christ' etc without thinking as not a swear word, but so realise I shouldn't be saying it as it's not nice. There's no escaping swear words though kids hear them everywhere, just need to explain where and when they can or can't say them

Bap

Apparently some form of bread. But I just can't say the word 🤢

Boobies

Meal
Pouch
Nodule

Basingstoke 😂

Gusset
Vulva
Hoop

Entitled.

That’s because people use it on Mumsnet to mean arrogant, presumptuous or selfish rather than what it does mean.

@bozna I totally get it, I used to swear like a sailor in my pre Ned Flanders days and think the JC thing is often just a habit a lot of the time. Even when I read it on here, my eyes have a mini bleed especially if it's 'Jesus effing Christ'. I need the smelling salts for that one!

Ointment, mucus, phlegm, Trump

glans

Gotten

Clunge.

Turgid.

pedagogy

It fills me with irrational loathing.

‘Little’. Not when it’s used normally but when it’s used in a cutesy way, especially on here.

’A little part-time job’
‘Our own little family’

Succulent

Purse
Cross (as in “I was so cross”, it’s just such a meh way of describing an emotion)
Hubby
