Every now and then a "word" comes along that I can't stand. The most recent of such words is "noob", short for "newbie", i.e. beginner, newcomer to something. You'll here people say, "I'm a noob so can anyone help me ?"... Everytime I see that word "noob" I want to put my fist through something.

Noob is kind of an old word these days. I'm used to it now.

I always hated yo. Quite an old word now, but I always thought it was silly. Especially when the first person I ever heard say it was a white guy with a Pennsylvania accent.

If you think that's a recent word then you must be a noob...

Sylvester Stallone was not speaking with a Pennsylvania accent, especially not a Philadelphia one. Yo Adrian or no Yo Adrian.

I can't say as if I've ever watched a movie with Sylvester Stallone in it.

Then the Rocky reference was just wasted. Sorry about that.

LOL, yep. D is always amazed at how many movies I *haven't* watched. Byproduct of being raised in an extremely overprotective, socially conservative religious home.

I kind of like w00t. It's evocative of...something. I'm not sure what.

I like it too. I was trying to use it abrasively. You know, for the children.

I don't expect anyone to figure it out. LOL!
Sometimes I'll say something even more profound that I intended and it's me trying to keep up.

You know. For kids.

ok, not words necessarily, but tired expressions:

"at the end of the day".
"the bottom line is"
"it is what it is"

"Going forward."

"Refutiated," except when used ironically.

I have nothing against "mayhaps," but anyone who uses "irregardless" should be caned.

Yes, TU. While my dudgeon is high, I might add another that merits a stout riding crop against the eyelids: "Like I said..."

hmmmm...."dudgeon" rhymes with "curmudgeon". Coincidence?

"I'll be perfectly honest."

Oh, you mean you usually lie?

"I'll be perfectly honest."

On, you mean you usually lie?

Hahaha! I am guilty of saying that one, but I rarely lie about anything. My dad used to say that all the time and I picked it up from him. He rarely lied either. But I do think that to myself whenever I find myself writing or saying it though.

But seriously...

The word that I loathe above all others starts with "B", ends with "h", and surrounds "us".

Another word to hate: Dialog used as a verb. As in "we're dialoging that right now." :wtf:
