Annoying words
A comedy conversation by John Hargrave 128,746 73

My annoying word for the day is "yummy."



As in, "Betsy brought a coffee cake into the office today, and it is so yummy!"



"Really? Did her mommy and daddy make the yummy coffee cake? Does the yummy cake make you go poo-poo? Tinky winky dipsy la-la PO?"



Let's make a list of all the words that adults should not use, and then send our list to Congress and the FCC.

My annoying word(s) of the day is "Good Morning", as in...



"Good Morning Mythology, how was your weekend, mine was great, we went to the falls, had a picnic, you should go..." - office super cheery reception chick

I'm uncharacteristically grouchy today so I have a big list:



"kid" - as in "Way to go kid." Especially when used in an adult/adult context. It's condescending.



Any sort of baby talk, whatsoever.



"oleander" - just because I hate it.



"wuv" - it's LOVE goddamn it!



"wittle" - it's LITTLE goddamn it!



"thems" - as in "thems the breaks, kid" especially when paired with the aforementioned "kid". This makes me want to shoot you.

I used "my bad" just this morning. Then I stopped and said, "Did I just say 'my bad'? Please shoot me now."



I was going to do an article on this, but since I've been trying to write it for the last two months without any success, here are my other word annoyances:



"Qualm" - I heard a co-worker say "to qualm their fears," when he meant either "quell" or "calm." "Qualm" sounds like some kind of shellfish you'd eat in Maine with a cup of melted butter.



"Acrosst." There is no "T" on the end of this word. Please revisit your third-grade English textbook.



"Taunt" when they mean "taut." I have a cousin who lives in the backwoods of Indiana, and he's always talking about "pulling the rope taunt." "Oh, you mean you pull the rope, just to tease it?"

Alzhimer's disease was "ultumers"

I'm beginning to wonder just how many people actually know how to pronounce that word. Some of the variations I've heard are: "old-timers and all-timers".



My grandmother used to say that she had "osteo-osis". For some reason, she didn't believe that her case of osteoperosis had the letter "p" in the word.
