we already have a favorite word thread. what’s ur worst word, the one word that drives you up the wall every time you hear it, and you just think its the ugliest word ever?????
my worst word is subpoena. i don’t even know what it means, but i think it just has an awful sound! the spelling is also horrible! i hate it!
MineSSSSSSS. Believe it or not, I hear it too often- It’s mines!!
Ax, as in “let me ax you a question”
Living in brooklyn, I hear this all the time
like…..people like just love the word like.
mines not a word. mines a phrase. dont you get offended when ppl say “no offense BUT>>>>>>” uuurrrrr drives me bananas!!!!!!!!!!!!
retarded- which really just means delayed, but often used in a very negative connotation.
bpt-
Remonds me of the story-
Chauffer: “Hey O.J. are you ready to go to the airport yet?”
O.J.: “No, I have to ax my wife first…”
alls….as in “alls i said was…”
geshmak….cant stand it!!
retarded offends me, unless its being said by an australian who says “thats retoded” (pronounced tod, not toad)
‘JOSEPH’ 😉
the mods would ban me if i tried…
agree w/ ‘ax’ & especially ‘mines’.
In light of the time of year and added seriousness of recent events, is this what we have degraded to deem significant enough to spend out GD given time and energy??? Amazing. great mussar lesson for when I get back to the classroom……. and for me for today!
What purpose does this serve???
how about “whatever”? some ppl use it 10 times in each sentence!
“she said” 100 times in a sentence
“What purpose does this serve??? “
The same purpose the CR as a whole serves. Some of it is serious, most of it is fun and games.
Not to worry though,Av / Elul / selicos / Rosh H/ YK is almost here, so you’ll have all the “tachlis” you want (and so desparately crave)
Rabbaim – sometimes we need to just chill. especially in light of all the recent events. i think we’d go nuts if we didn’t. like bpt said “Not to worry though,Av / Elul / selicos / Rosh H/ YK is almost here, so you’ll have all the “tachlis” you want (and so desparately crave)”
also – no one is forcing you to be on this thread. this is for those of us who want to have fun.
so…. how about the phrase “at the end of the day”?
corporate cliches. i hate them. with a fiery passion.
also, the phrase” “where can I find it at?”
taking a break
Lol, I’m with you on the “no offense.” When someone starts off like that, I know I’m about to be offended.
I can’t stand when people don’t say their R’s….such New Yawkas…
Youse. In my part of the country it isn’t unusual for people to use a phrase such as “”Youse should be careful” or “I want to thank youse all for being here.” Drives me wacky when I hear it.I, too, am also appalled by the modern usage (yousage) of the English language as used by teenagers, when every second word is “like”. Also, teens use four letter words as adjectives in almost every sentence. If you have to use public transit and overhear a group of teens talking, four letter words are used to describe everything – good or bad. I wonder what word they have left in their vocabularies when they really need a four letter – for instance after one accidentally hammers their thumb. THEN, you may require such a word to describe the pain.
dunno- i LUV ny accents. they crack me up.
probably ” i dunno”
When ppl say they are going to get a Culture as appose to a throat culture. rrraaa
“Uhoh”
aries
Oh well 🙂
puss.
my worst word
