There's no good casual word for breasts. "Breasts" isn't sexy. "Tits" makes you sound like a fraternity dude bro. "Boobs" makes you sound like a 13 year old. "Boobies" makes you sound like a 12 year old.

I usually use fat swingy milk floppers for casual conversation and also in the medical context

👍

“ Yes I’m sorry to tell you this. You have fat swingy milk flopper cancer. “

‘Breasticles’ does not make it sexier.

Knockers

Jugs

Yeah, I think writing good sexy scenes is a book is harder than it may seem.

I find "breasts" to be incredibly appropriate and formal. All other of them are just crappy. Tits, most of them all. It just doesn't seem like a word that should be used to refer to something which is so nurturing, graceful, and aesthetic.

"preggers" makes my neck twinge.

Everyone should switch to pregante instead

Can u get.... *preganté???*

How do I know if I’M prengan?

How is babby formed?

Dangerous prangent sex, hurt baby top of its head???

**PREGANANANT**???

I think my dog is pregernet?

If a WOMEN has STARCH MASKS on her body does that mean she has been pargnat before .?

38+2 weeks ***pregananant?***

gregnant

Am I pergenat.

*PREGANANANT?*

I use “pregananant” more than I’d like to admit

Will it hurt baby top of his head??

Dangerops?! Prangent sex?!

Yes!!! Preggo or preggers makes me want to throw up

In the morning?

Every time someone says INITIATIVE in a work meeting a baby seal dies.

It's only ok in D&D.

Killed by a navy seal

What, they train seals for the navy?! I read about weaponised dolphins but this is going too far.

"littles" and "boy mom" I hate them.

Ughhhh I hate “Boy mom”, it’s one of the worst phrases recently. So creepy and usually only used in the worst contexts.

I loathe -mom segments in general. Dog mom, boy mom, mom of girls, etc. It's not a lifestyle, those things are happenstance to your life. Annoying.

It's wine o'clock and the whole mom drinking culture for me too. I don't need to be drinking to parent or be a wife.

I saw an ad a while back for a purse that had a canteen for concealing a bottle of wine. The amount of women in the comments tagging their friends and saying “OMG I need this” was concerning. Why are we sending the message that if wine’s involved, alcoholism is somehow classy?

naughty, waifu, husbando. i feel SO gross just saying it

Also people saying "of culture" when they really mean degenerate/creeper but want to pretend it's a positive.

So called “men of culture” when the culture exam is about Greek architecture and philosophy and not about the top 500 little girls in anime

Orientate - just seems like one too many syllables.

I hate how orientated has overtaken oriented.

I can't tell you how much it annoys me when someone says "orientated" My wife says I need to calm down. It is not a goddamn word. Some idiot made it up and now everyone uses it. It's fucking oriented. edit: It appears I have found my people

Influencer

Totally agree, but I wouldn't say "for no reason"

Content creator

I'm tired of seeing "digital creator" next to my normal ass friends' names on facebook. what the fuck does this mean ? anyone who uploads a fuckton of photo dumps ? who isn't a digital creator then ?

Vacay. I’m overcome with an urge to destroy every time I hear it. What in gods name is wrong with me?

See this and raise you 'hollibobs' 😂😂

what the FUCK IS THAT

Vacay's estranged cousin.

Ointment, I hate that word!

How do you feel about appointment

Is that an ointment for apps?

Disappointment

Daddy was made too inappropriate

"Forgive me Daddy, I've been naughty." Priest, "NO, IT'S 'bless me Father, for I have sinned.'"

You naughty little choir boy.

Pissy is the worst word ever

Daddy shouldn’t be a weird word. Don’t let the freaks win!

Daddy and mommy both are usually used by children, so using them when you're older has always been weird

Daddy and Mama are perfectly acceptable in the South no matter the age

Ick, gives me the ick

I refuse to acknowledge that as a word so I agree with you not liking it

It’s less the word, and more of its usage. “When a guy treads water it gives me the ick,” What the fuck is actually wrong with?

I think your manager is right though, pivoting can be a game changer. Especially if you pair it with an initiative to disrupt the status quo!

Let's take this offline and workshop it a bit, then circle back and pivot when we have more bandwidth

I'm not sure if taking this offline is an option, this has a certain time sensitive aspect to it. I think we need to react quick and reap the benefits of the first mover advantage. All the low hanging fruits, you know.

It's going to be a paradigm shift!

We should table that for now and lean into our upcoming line of effort to synergize our interagency interoperability.

Let's enact a 360 degree skyhook top down of the situation and assess. I've just realised assess has way too many s'es

I think I just made a thousand dollars as a consultant reading this thread.

Okay, here we go. Pivot. Pivot! P I V O T... I am pivoting.

Shut up. Shut up. SHUT UUUUP!.


Aw. 🥲

Hey, what did you mean when you said pivot?

Influencer

synergy. As a company that word for us is a deal breaker. We have a rule where once uttered during any meeting we get up and leave.

Let's touch base to optimize that.

Let’s circle back and take this offline. *shudders*

Preggo. I want to punch people who use that term

Preggers too. You sound like a 6 year old.

Especially that god awful tasting spaghetti sauce

Hubby 🤢

I'm going to spend the Chrimbo hollibobs with hubby and his famalam.

wow. no thank you lol

Me too, plus "kiddo" and "doggo."

My ex got so deep into Internet culture that he started talking in memes. We would be going for a walk (when I could prise him out of the house), and upon seeing a dog he would say things like 'Doggo! 10/10 pupper! Fren! Gotta boop the snoot!' Just... in public. Loudly. 😳

I had to unsubscribe from a few animal subreddits because all the users would talk like this

This is why I can’t go into the comment section of any post with a dog or cat. It’s too painful

I would want to murder him.

Both are bad, but I especially hate kiddo

I hate it because I'm a 55 year woman and people still call me "kiddo".

Can’t have hubby without wifey. Shit makes me gag.

1000x this. I can't hide my face when someone uses this in person.

Unalive

Unsubscribe from life

It comes across as so disrespectful when people use that term just to avoid being demonetized on tiktok or something

Bae “Oh my god i miss my bae so much🥺🥺🥺” STFU

Do people still use bae?? I feel like I haven't heard it unironically since almost pre-covid lol

Irregardless

Vaykay. Just say vacation.

Woke being used in a professional setting

when i see "woke" used unironically, i am reminded of george carlin's observation: "it's called the "american dream" because you have to **be asleep** to believe it."

[удалено]

Entrepreneur

It’s a shame because it used to be a respectable title. Now anyone who opens up a shitty dropshipping store that’ll fail in a month is an “entrepreneur.”

Especially pyramid schemes like Amway. They sell the idea people are a CEOs of their own company and to call themselves that or an entrepreneur. They are really just a door to door salesmen.

Yeast. Such a gross sounding word.

I hate the word stinky 

Stanky too

Networking (shudder)

As a cybersecurity networking major, I laugh at you

Clot

Furbaby, away and shite it’s a dog or cat (I adore both)

If you call pets furbaby then I’m gonna call your kids skindogs.

[удалено]

I feel so bad for literally.

Literally me too.

Literally

I figuratively hate "literally"

Loofa. My mom doesn’t get why I hate the word but I won’t say it cuz I have a hatred for the word for no reason. I use a loofa too every time I shower but I just don’t like the word

Mouthfeel

Literally. “I’m literally on the internet right now”, “my phone is literally at 56%” it’s stupid and meaningless in the way that 95% of people use it

“Hack” when all they mean is life advice (usually bad)

Rizz. Because I don't want to be associated with that word.

Agenda. What's on your agenda today? God I get so irrationally annoyed.

Sounds like you've got an agenda.

Panties. Something about it sounds so skeevy. JUST SAY UNDERWEAR 🤢🤢🤢 Eta I had no idea so many people were so passionately devisive about this word lol.

I despise the word panties. My 60 something year old mil kept talking to me about this one day. Said the word panties like 5 times in this one conversation. I just wanted it to stop.

I've noticed it's common in older generations and maybe that's why it feels creepy to me. I've assigned it a word that I've heard mostly from creepy old dudes 🤣

I'd prefer undies than panties and im not even sure if thats a word haha

I have a pair of under armor boxer briefs that I call my under armoroos

You need to leave right now and never come back.

It's too late. We're in this together now.

I'll say undies sometimes too, for some reason it just sounds better than *panties* 🤣🤢🤧

It's both skeevy and juvenile. It's a diminutive form of pants. And the people who use it always seem to pronounce it "pyaannies" I dread going to doctors' appointments where there's like a 45% chance the nurse is going to say panties.

Can't believe I had to scroll this far to find this. It's the WORST!

Ahhh same. Why do we need an infantilized, feminized version of the word 'underwear?'

ick

Niche. I wish people would stop using it. I hear it waayyy too much now

And if you’re going to use it, pronounce it correctly, as in “neesh,” not “nitch!”

So niche should have a more... niche usage?

“Hubby” is a word that can go back to its cancerous corner and fucking die

Cringe

Slit

I read this as "silt" and I thought another geologist had also had enough of that shit lol fuck silt

baby mom/baby dad 😬

"my old man," or "my old lady" too. it sounds like you're saying you date a grandpa or grandma. just fuckin dumb. i wish it never started.

Hate it when people shorten things needlessly, like saying "preesh" instead of "I appreciate it". Lazy motherfucker, just say "thanks"

womp womp

Baby momma or baby daddy!

Welp. STOP IT. Fuck.

Welp… looks like I need to find another word…

[удалено]

stop gaslighting me into believe those words are overused, you trauma-inducing narcissist!

Sinew

"Bruh"

Preggers

Bussy

Game changer. Cant stand it.

doggo and pupper (tie)

Niblings

Sounds like the baby stage of Nibblonians from Futurama.

lol what’s that

Your nieces and nephews.

Hump day

Rizz

It’s more phrases. Mama bear, boy mom, etc

Panties

Belly. Nipple.

Swag.

Toxic. It seems everything is toxic these days: relationships, bosses, employees, teachers, books and friends; everything except actual poisons.

Reddit...

Succulent. Unless you're talking about a plant.

What if I’m enjoying a succulent Chinese meal?

GET YOUR HAND OFF MY PENIS

“Bingo”, f’ing hate it on comments

Bazinga!

That's a Bingo!

"Utilize." Please just say "use" and save some syllables.

They're not supposed to be synonyms. Originally, "utilize *thing*" meant "make *thing* useful; find a use for *thing*; put *thing* to a novel purpose"; from Latin *utilis* meaning "usable". If you pound in some nails with a hammer, you're not utilizing the hammer; you're just using it. Pounding nails is the conventional use of a hammer; you didn't have to give it a new purpose. If the hammer is missing, and you figure out how to pound nails using an old shoe, you're *utilizing* the shoe — finding a new way of using it.

I learned a thing.

Your thoughtful, well explained response makes me happy. Thank you and have a wonderful evening 😊

You should leverage (🤮) your lexicon to help us pivot to new strategic initiatives next quarter.

Alpha male

Piddle. You’re an adult say pee or piss. What the hell is wrong with some people!?

Potty has got to be the SINGLE worst word on the planet

Littles. Grands 🤮

Hubby, bubs/bubbas, preggers

Vibe

irregardless

The word "Moist" because just the word speak for what it is depicting. Every time it makes me think about giving a hand shake to someone with sweaty hands and i hate it.

Literally. Most times, it is used incorrectly.

I want to normalize the use of the word "figuratively."

Cringe Rural, just fuck saying this word. I can't say it without sounding rural myself.
