The words like and um.
-
The word "moist". For some reason, it disgusts me.
-
A very bad word starting with the letter C
-
"Washington" so I can finally stop hearing people where I live saying "WaRshingtin," for one. It really bothers me, a lot. Ugh, and when you luve right by it, and people are all rooting for the Redskins, it is all you EVER hear. I'm gonna go crazy from it one day...

HATE
-
Quintessential, for some reason I loathe the word and people who use it.
-
hate because people use it in arguments and dont really mean it but its an hard thing to take back.
-
the word bow the number 2 the word the and the word lord all in the same phrase. Also I want all words that are racist like the Ni**** and the one I heard lately Crack*r.
-
"Amazing!" Yeah . . . Irregardless Huh? Basically . . .
-
Religion.
-
The word -- CAN'T
-
It may seem surreal, actually, and for sure we should eliminate a word I hate because yah know it just negates everything you say in the course of your previous speech or answer, can you feel me? That word would be "BUT."
-
appathetic, its too hard to say and i still dont dont know what it means so tell me please!

It's between "titties," "nuclear," and "ladylike" I don't mind boobs, tits, breasts, knockers, etc, but "titties" and "boobies" annoy me. I think if they were called "breasties" and "hooties" I wouldn't like those either. "Nuclear" is embarrassing. I only pronounce it correctly when I keep in mind that I'm about to say it. People (usually women over 45) use "ladylike" in this way that is usually critical. "It's not ladylike to swear." "Wearing baseball caps isn't ladylike." I don't care! I guess I'd choose "nuclear" and hope that meant we got rid of nuclear bombs and nuclear energy, too, so we wouldn't have to use it.

The word f*ck. It is disgusisting and gross, often used as a swear word regretably.
-
The word race, in the anthropological sense. People use it seriously all too often.
-
I don't imagine taking any specific word away from the English language would do any good unless you were simultaneously able to take away the meaning as well. Otherwise, another word would just be made up in place of it.
-
Panties (Edit): Is it just me who doesn't like the word? I always feel whenever a guy says it he sounds a bit like a pervert, even if he isn't one
-
HATE or maybe Segregate Or Racialism oh we could well do without so many words but would only find others as substitutes like Cell phones and their wrap around texting. I cannot get on with that either. Silly analogy but I find it apt.

Well, I don't know if this would count as a word in the english language, but I'm tired of it anyways, so I'll just say it...LOL..I'm tired of seeing that "word", and I wish it never existed. I would be fine with it, if people didn't wear it out so much..Kind of like napoleon dynamite..That movie was pretty good. But then people everywhere had to go ,and quote from it like silly, and try to dance like napoleon. And everywhere I look, people are wearing good things out, and it makes me sick..Sorry to go off on a rabit trail, but I think you get my point..
