Words That I Am Tired Of

Recommended Posts

Awesome.

Person 1:  "Where are you going?"

Person 2: "To get my car washed."

Person 1: "Awesome."

I hear that word every single day.

 

My daughter hates "paradigm." She says that more often than not it is misused. I wouldn't know.

So you're countering my opinion with a site that posts opinions?  Brilliant.

Unanswered points. Merriam Webster

 

2: scored in succession during a period in which an opponent fails to score

 

Period = time

 

So scoring in succession during a time in which an opponent fails to score

 

Does not indicate the rest of the game. Just a time when scoring in succession happens and isn't answered

That's disingenuous.  Look at the VERY PAGE you cited -- both examples given are exactly what I'm saying!

No because it says Cincinnati scored 23 unanswered only to LOSE to the dolphins. The dolphins scored after 23 unanswered

 

So the dolphins did score again so Cincinnati didn't score 23 straight according to your definition. Just 23 in a row

PASSION

I see one more employment ad seeking a passionate candidate for a janitor, convenience store clerk, or oil change jockey, I think I will throttle the person who composed the ad.  Ever hear of ‘enthusiastic’, ‘eager’, etc?

 

REACH OUT.

FFS, attempt to contact, email, call, but do anything besides reach out...especially if you’re a news organization.  ‘Reach out’; who the f*** are you, AT&T?!

I'm through with the words "trope" and "woke".  It's like CNN, Hollywood, D.C.  just figured out what they mean and now everyone is using them.  Evidence that our society is desperately seeking new ways to be offended.  While we're at it, let's throw microaggression in there too.   

 

Any words you can't stand to hear anymore?

 

 

 

You're an idiot.

Awesome nails it!  Maybe Cool too.

I think cool is still good.  Cool beans isn't cool though.

“Unacceptable”....Had a client say “That answer from the Court is unacceptable”. I went on to think “I said it, you heard it. It’s too late. Accept it”. Pompous phrase. 

 

Agreed.

But "outrageuos" in Court is always good.

Last time someone told me something was "unacceptable," my response was something like "Life's full of ***** little disappointments.  Accept it and get out, I'm busy."
