Which word do you dislike most?
-
Can't pick just one so here're a couple.
"Crypto" used in the context of cryptocurrrencies.
"AI", referring only to LLMs.
"Research", referring to an indeterminate amount of reading up on the topic at hand, such as in the phrase "do your own research" that's being bandied around in some communities."AI", referring only to LLMs.
Yeah, it's annoying because there are a lot of legit image recognition and pattern matching applications in my work field, and I need to ask for clarification every time someone says "AI".
Like, is this actually useful, or do you mean "we asked ChatGPT to generate you 20% nonsense"?

It is, maybe, something very particular as I am not familiar with that term used through "Puritanical thingy". Sorry, I am located in Europe and lack of knowledge about Puritans

Did you look them up? That's basically what most of the mainstream US churches are based off of.

"Walkie-Talkie"
Its a "Handheld Transceiver" ffs, who the fuck gave it such a stupid name lmfao
Is a Telephone a "Chit-y-Chat-y"? A computer a "Beep-ie-Boop-ie"?
And who would ever use a childish word like āmovieā? Itās called a moving picture.

I had to as I am not (like veeeerrry far away) familiar at all with any mainstream US churches phrases. At least, I have learnt something new

When people call sex "breeding".
It sounds like some puritanical shit where they believe that sex is only for procreation.
I'd say that is more about a kink than anything remotely religious

Trump.
I will never speak it again.
The Cheeto

A peacock's tail is a flourish, something that adds to the whole without detracting.
A cocktail combines spirits with other flavors to make them something else.
I don't really drink cocktails, but thr antiquated term makes sense in a particular context.
Now looking it up, apparently the origin of the term isn't actually known and my interpretation isn't even in the running, but I'm saving this anyway because it's amusing.
Iāll also take your definition. It sounds good and if thereās not a known origin, it could be true

The F word that means "a bundle of sticks" used almost exclusively as a homophobic slur.
Itās unfortunate - I like the concept of people talking about bundles of sticks, or slang for cigarettes. But the negative usage so dwarfs those cases that theyāre really no longer legitimate

Penultimate. Anyone writing about or reviewing the second last of anything uses it in their first breath like their English degree depends on it.

What's wrong with idiom?

Just can't stand the way it sounds, starts with an idi like your going into something then ends with an um. It feels like someone stopped making the name partway through.

I'm always tempted to write it out. The word is in everybody's mind while we read the text. It gets so powerful if people decide to talk around it. But if the context is not hurtful, it's just a word. Nothing happens. It becomes an insult if the mind of the one who says it or the one who reads it decides to make it one.
Plus the assholes who use it as a slur will say it anyway. We're not achieving anything by erasing it from our bubble.
Well, that's what I think about it. -

I like woody sort of words. Bound, prudy, recidivist. Erogenous zone, loose woman... concubine! Errrogenous zooooone!
Funny thing, dear. All the naughty words sound woody.
E: It appears I have misread the question. But I'll leave my Monty Python reference here.
