What are some words you really hate?

I mean what are those words that just sound ugly as fuck to you?

>> No.3590842

Staunch / Staunchly

It sounds like a word to describe a horrible stink.

>> No.3590843

Honestly I can not think of a word that I hate. Words in and of themselves hold no meaning to me, and each can be used when the situation calls for it. It's all a matter of context.


Except for Jalapeño, fuck that.

I one day hope to read a literary text with the words "humblebrag" and "trill" in them.

>> No.3591128

Every word used in an academic text that could easily be replaced with a far simpler one.
So many people are apperantly just mad that they aren't real scientists.
But I guess that 'discourse' is the one I hate the most, not because of the word itself, which is very much needed, but because it is used by fucktards all the time.

I think this is a great word precisely because it sounds so utterly hateful. If it were meant to describe pretty flowers it would not be any good, but as it is it's there to defame and dehumanize, and it sounds exactly like that. See the army-surplus guy from Falling Down for a flawless deployment of its innately repulsive sound.
