Words I Don’t Like.

Words from the States which have crept into our vocabulary, such as scrap,f--k
Other words I dont like
Snog
Spinster
Belly
Passed as in passed away, why not just died!
Sh--t
Could go on forever

I love threads like this. I have a list of words I don't like
Moist being the top one
Cardi
Frock
Pants
Panties
Knickers...not sure what I would call them!
Afters

Panties and mom.

Wow. Used for every reaction.

I dislike the word pop when followed by 'of colour' because it's so overused. I also dislike the word eclectic for the same reason.

Bum and belly. When I was very little my mum told me they were very rude words and I’ve never been comfortable saying them!
Palpable. It is such an overused word!

Like all widows, I’ve had to tell many people in the last eight months that DH had died. Never have I used passed, or passed away. I appreciate that some people probably feel that it’s a more gentle term, but it doesn’t make me feel any better. I’m possibly somewhat pedantic.

Hate the word titties

S is shit
M is meat
Slightly childish but there you go ?

EMPOWERED! Blinking everywhere.
Thank you Meghan, we never knew.

‘Reach out to’ instead of contact.

I hate being addresses as " Hun" or "Babe" it's just to familiar when most of these people don't even know me. There's not many other words I don't like other than the over used swearing. I'm not a prude and I will use the F word on occasion but when it's every other word in general conversation when someone is speaking to me I definitely don't like it.

I can't explain why but I don't like colourways!

The F word should be reserved for special occasions.
Something like this said by Evelyn Waugh.

I hate twee words like 'furbaby', hubby, hubster

Kiddies, titties, panties

When I bake a cake, my adult children take a bite, make a groaning noise and say 'oh it is so moist', just to see my reaction.

Toilet, crotch, pamper

Off to scratch my teeth.

Bear with, does it really take a lot to add "me" to make a complete sentence

I dislike overuse of the word "sadly". In news reports it seems almost obligatory to use it before the word "died". "Many Covid patients have sadly died". I might speak sadly of someone's death but they didn't sadly die or sadly pass away.

I dislike this fairly new trend of using initials instead of writing the words that offend.

I would naturally not use a word that I find offensive, but would try to find an inoffensive one or an expression I can live with.

We all know that vegans and vegetarians do not eat meat. If they dislike even thinking or writing the word, what is wrong with substituting animal products instead?

That way we would avoid a certain amount of confusion.

I hate panties too, sounds creepy
Another one for moist
Swimming 'trunks,'
Catarrh or phlegm
My friend uses Hun all the time and it bugs me. I can't remember the last time she called me by my Christian name.

They are definately NOT knickers to any self-respecting girl!

I was taught as a child that knickers was as vulgar a word as lavatory. We went to the toilet, where we pulled down our underpants!

I think all likes and dislikes of words probably date back to what we were allowed to say as young children.

My mother would have had a fit if we had said bum or belly - they were repectively your bottom and your tummy when speaking to her.

Underpants are for boys, though.

Pouch. I always think of something disgustingly soft, damp and squidgy

MawBe

“Moist” makes me shudder.
And, entirely unconnectedly “panties” ?‍??‍??‍??‍?

But it's the most important quality of cake!

Diarrhea. A difficult word to spell and as a word it sums up a horrible word picture.

Vegans do not eat or use animal products.

Vegetarians eat some things stolen from the animals, such as the milk that the mother animals generate to feed their babies.
