        "literally" and "like"

        ...because it's literally used like every two words

            I've come to hate "Utilize." It has a decent purpose as "using to the fullest extent," or, "making do with something in a new context."

            Instead, I just hear it as a replacement for "use" when someone wants to sound smart.

                Too many to count. A lot of the current slang

                Rizz comes close to the top of the list

                      The F word that means "a bundle of sticks" used almost exclusively as a homophobic slur.

                          That one I hear so much, I'm afraid it will become the new normal way of pronouncing ask. Definitely bugs me!

                            When people call sex "breeding".

                            It sounds like some puritanical shit where they believe that sex is only for procreation.

                              I uh... I'm not sure what your source is, but for mine 'breeding' is anything but "only for procreation"

                                It kinda depends on context.

                                A gay guy? Hedonistic, in the best way.

                                An incel? Puritanical, in the worst way.

                                      With some specific exceptions, for me. If you are one, and you aren't using it against others, it's fine. Like storytelling and describing a conversation, or just even being playful about it. Maybe being at a store with some friends looking at clothes or something, describing yourself and how something looks perhaps? Totally fine in my book. That's our term, we should be able to reclaim it for ourselves.

                                      But someone else who I don't know and can't immediately determine the meaning/context that uses it? Bitch you about to die.

                                        Apparently it's urban slang.

                                        Sounds like some misogynistic nonsense to me.

                                          Dude I'd hate to live life through your lense. It has nothing to do with misogyny, if anything it's the opposite. It's a word usually used by people without children to mildly-insultingly refer to people who do have children
