Ew, I've been getting off topic. Let's see if I can find the single WORST WORD in the english language:


a) Colostomy


b) Pustule


c) HIV/AIDS

-Forestlady

'work' is a word I hate. As well as 'awake', 'empty', 'skint' and 'overtime'.

I can't hear bananas now without thinking of that stupid song by the girl from No Doubt.

B - A-N-A-N-A-S, bananas bananas, ba ba bananas...

My favorite word is..."apparently".

Ahhhh, rolls off the tongue.....

And "tongue" is a pretty stupid word! Why not "tung".

so the 1980s are zombies now? do we need Blade

You've proven your case, mate, b/c you spelled it wrong.

What about Ghoti?- oops, taken. My bad. (Here a reference to fellow Buffy the Vampire Slayer lovers not a malapropism)


For me one of them is 'loose' as the spelling of lose, or 'proove' as the spelling of prove.

When a fighter says 'it was his match to loose', I think 'you don't qualify as a fighter because you can not spell a signal word in your profession.

Of course I kid. I lurve all werds.

For me it's Fail, epic fail, colossal fail, or any combination of the word fail, used on the Internet. It absolutely drives me nuts! I can't stand that, who the hell are these people to think they can judge another and grade them? Are they teachers? I hate Fail!

the word "humiliation"....i cant pronounce it really its the only word that i stumble upon. does someone have that problem too.

Worst word:

EVICTION

Worst phrase...."Do you know what I mean?"

Oh my frickin god... if I knew what the hell you meant I would not have asked for you to explain your expression in the first frickin place

Seriously, I know a chick, love her to pieces, but can't stand the fact that she uses that phrase in a conversation like a valley girl use discovered the term 'like'.....

You know what I mean?

I thought the topic was "the SINGLE worst word in the English language" lol.

Uhh... I think 'definitely' is a pretty evil word. It's a rare occurrence that I find someone that spells it right. And 'zeppelin'. These are all the different interpretations of Led Zeppelin I've seen (given that they spell "Led" right):

Led Zepplin
Led Zeplin
Led Zepplyn
Led Zepelin
Led Zepilin
Led Zeplean
Led Zepleen

I actually saw a group of people holding up a banner that said "Led Zepplin" at a CONCERT in one of their music videos. It's enfuriating!!

It's 'infuriating'!!

I hate it when people say "my bad" that drives me crazy, and I agree with Dr Love about the "like" thing with kids today.

I am not quite sure, but I certainly believe I am not thinking about bananas inside my head every day. I do like to take it into my mouth though, but then I'll just bite. I wonder if it hurts that little poor, 5" long yellow and sticky thing. Or maybe green, if not fully developed and and hasn't got any heat in its life just yet (by sun).

I wonder though, I do have my own obsession-like patterns in my head..
