Cringe worthy words

[Treeinthewoods]

The word "lol" used as an actual word and not an internet acronym. Gawd, that's just awful.

I'm just going to QFT this and include my own hatred of any person who uses any kind of texting/internet abbreviations in actual conversation. I know a girl who says "BRB" instead of just telling me she'll be back. The worst part is I'm not allowed to fire her for doing that.

"Addicting" The word is Addictive you undereducated Plebs,
Also "disorientated" the word is disoriented less annoying but it still grates on me.

"Emo".
Seriously, what does it even mean?
EMOtional?
I also hate the hipster-words like: dawg, daddy-o, lol, lmao, rofl, fail,...

This too.

Isn't 'Disorientated' a word too? I'm pretty sure it is. My Microsoft Word doesn't correct it at any rate.

It is, But that doesn't mean I have to like it

"Addicting" The word is Addictive you undereducated Plebs,
Also "disorientated" the word is disoriented less annoying but it still grates on me.

Disorientated is the British-English and therefore original spelling and pronunciation.

Disoriented is an American slur.

[Rofl-Mayo]

I hate any racial slurs or the word "gay."

I also hate the hipster-words like: dawg, daddy-o, lol, lmao, rofl, fail,...

I didn't know that hipsters were starting to use Daddy-o. That is a term from the fifties. I use it every once in a while. Damn it, stupid hipsters. They took my beer, now they are taking my words. If I am not careful I might get mistaken for one. I'm just glad I don't have ironic facial hair.

OT:Moist

Just saying bothers me. It just sounds so wrong

 

[Girl With One Eye]

I hate the word "meh", I just find it really annoying and a lazy way to say you have no useful opinion to contribute. I also hate "k".

 

[Hosker]

I hate the word "peng".
And also when people say "everything" with a K at the end, so it sounds like "everythink". Why do people do that!?

 

[mjc0961]

Epic. Stop fucking saying that everything is epic. Your sandwich was not epic. A trailer for a video game is not epic.

"Fucking"
That right there makes me want to slap someone across the face with the power of 30 hurricanes.
Actually most kinds of swearing ticks me off somewhat. If you are not a child, don't talk like a poorly raised one..
But especially fucking...

I think the problem here is your misconception that certain words are for children. You strike me as a person who would look at the Wii and say it only has kiddie games. There is nothing wrong with swearing and in fact it's not really even "swearing", it's just some bullshit someone somewhere made up. Fuck is just as viable a word as any other word, and I'll be damned if I'm going to stop using it just because some random authority decided that it's a "bad" word.

No I'm british but I've always used disoriented

the way I see it :

Orientation
when you lose your orientation you are dis-oriented

Disorientated would make sense if the word was:
Orientatation
But I think we can agree that'd just be silly.

I hate it when a man calls another man "*****" fuck, I hate that. And referring to women collectively as "bitches" also drives me nuts. But I have no problem calling a woman a *****, when she's being one, although that's just replacing the word "shrew' with *****. Oh, I also use the term "***** mouth" which refers to a particular set of the jaw that most women who are bitches exhibit.

 

[thermo1]

Any word that rhymes with "Cringe" .... including cringe

 

[Thundero13]

"Emo".

EMOtionally unstable
OT I generally don't swear because I hate when people just ornament there sentences with swearing and movies that think swearing automatically makes it funny

 

[tehweave]

I hate hearing the word **** for some reason. I don't use it. Besides, pussy/whore/ho seems to do just fine.

I do too. It's such an ugly word that describes such a beautiful thing. (Vagina)

My least favorite word: Moist. UGH.

As cracked.com said:

Imagine a sentence that uses the word moist. Now imagine your mother or grandmother said it.

 

[meticadpa]

Any words that sound like what they're describing, if the thing they're describing is bad. Like scrape. D:

I don't mind all swear words though. Except racist ones; they're not cool.

 

[megs1120]

My two least favorite words are, in no particular order, "panties" and "moist". Bleecchh.

"Panties" is so juvenile-sounding and degrading, it's not even feminine, it's like something a pedophile would say. Yuck!

"Moist" is just a gross word to say, it feels slimy coming out of someone's mouth. Moist. Like a squishy, dirty diaper or the ground surrounding a slimed-over bog. Aaagh!

If that's the case, what do you say to words like "appreciation", "hallucination" and "dedication"?

Surely if "disorient" is the verb, then it shouldn't be "disorientation" it should be "disoriention", which is clearly wrong.

 

[zehydra]

No word by itself really makes me cringe. There has to be a context for it to annoy me.

 

[xc00l n3rdx]

Hmmmm where do i start???

Peng, chillax, lush, FML, bootyliscious (is that spelled right???) when people don't know the difference between their, there, they're and your, you're and also now and know!!! It really isn't that difficult!

I also hate all the slang that is now going around as it makes no sense to me what so ever!

Yeah, the whole internet acronym in everyday speech thing irks me, but the worst offender by far, for me, is "pwnd". It makes me rage so much when people try to say it. I even lost a friend from this, it pisses me off so much.

Nobody tried to get a dictionary to help with the disoriented/disorientated problem yet? Well here ya' go:

Adj. 1. disoriented - having lost your bearings; confused as to time or place or personal identity; "I frequently find myself disoriented when I come up out of the subway"; "the anesthetic left her completely disoriented"
lost, confused
unoriented - not having position or goal definitely set or ascertained; "engaged in unoriented study"; "unoriented until she looked at the map"
2. disoriented - socially disoriented; "anomic loners musing over their fate"; "we live in an age of rootless alienated people"
alienated, anomic
unoriented - not having position or goal definitely set or ascertained; "engaged in unoriented study"; "unoriented until she looked at the map"

disorientated; disoriented
adjective confused, lost, unsettled, bewildered, mixed up, perplexed, all at sea I feel dizzy and disoriented.

both from thefreedictionary.com. Seems that either can be used.

Language rules can be funny like that,
Though if I had to guess it's pobably got somthing to do with Appreciate, Hallucinate and Dedicate all ending with an E while Disorient does not
That's just a guess though.

Speaking of weired language rules,
Fun Fact:
The word "Item" comes from the Latin word meaning "as well as" and was to be used when making lists or "itemizing" in somewhat the same way as a comma Ie

A horse item
a saddal item
a weeks supply of hay item
a coplete horse grooming kit.

Somtimes langaugre develops in weird ways, particularly our bizzare melting pot.

Edit: since we are on the subject I also hate it when people use "ie." wrong it means "that is" as in "that is to say",
also:

ex.
it isn't ex. it's eg. it's not supposed to be short for example it's supposed to be short for Exemplii Gratia meaning "for the sake of example I know in the grand sceme of things there isn't a big difference but it bugs the hell out of me.
