There are phrases we all can't stand, so have at it.

Some I find annoying:
Stay-cation
Man-cave
DRIIIIIVE!!!

Epic
Fail
Epic-fail
owned/pwned
Newb/noob
'text speak' (symbols and numbers used as letters)


and quite frankly...'douche/douchebag/douchebaggery', all forms of douche are officially overplayed.

I absolutely HATE the word creepy and use it as sparingly as possible. I think it's really overused to describe what is normal behavior once the motivations are explained, and people that are perfectly fine are labeled with it and can't get away from that box regardless of what they do, their social lives effectively over... everything they do is misconstrued as being "creepy"... It's an insidious little word. The last time I used it was in telling a friend to stop taking pictures of people's houses on a walk... we were in a neighborhood that's got bigger houses in it than the huge ones in Amherst... yeah, we were there to look at the houses, but taking pictures of someone else's house? CREEPY. I had to take the camera away because she wouldn't stop and I felt really awkward and wrong and, well, creepy. See, things like that are creepy. Smiling at someone is not.

I also hate the word weird when applied to people, unless you're calling a serial killer weird or something.

I hate the phrase, "I find that hard to believe," because that's what my father has always said in response to most things I say when I do try to explain my motivations to him. I gave up with that a few years ago, so I don't hear it from him very often anymore, but I still have a knee-jerk "GO DIE" reaction to hearing that phrase. I glare at people who use it, much to their bewilderment lol.

I'm starting to hate, "I know, right?" I used to say it about five years ago. Now it's to the point where every time my twelve-year-old cousin tries to talk to me on Facebook half the things I say are met with "ikr." STOP IT.

utilize


Any time someone says the word utilize instead of use I want to punch them in the throat.

Not to mention girls use the term "creeper" to describe every guy they don't like. It's like, get over yourselves, not everyone is hell bent on frolicking in your nether regions.

I hate it when people use text speak also.

I don't really have many I hate, but when someone can't spell words right I really get dissatisfied with them.

I hate when creepy people epically fail because they didnt utilize their man cave to be more of a gourmet, irregardless of whether or not they could care less.

pwned.

Irregardless isn't actually a word though.

Funny story on that though. As some of you know my name is Aaron Jarvis, and while we were at a band competition in Indy and practicing where we were staying this one chick was saying irregardless to someone. And well if you hear that while your name is Aaron Jarvis, it sound awfully similar, so I kept turning and asking why she is calling me and such and then she said I wasn't, I was saying irregardless, so therefore, it sorta became a nickname among the people who were in my section. I also have a friend whose name is Amanda Tencza, which sounds like Demand Attention. Band was such a great place for memories.

Well, I find it hard to believe you really dislike all of these. This is kind of creepy.
Man, your weird. :D
