I know. You didn’t ask for this and I don’t much want to write them, but gosh darn it there are just some words that are overused, wrong, or just plain old annoying. I also figure it might be therapeutic to list them here. In the hopes that one day, a wise soul will stumble upon them and help spread the light..
So, here is the List of Words That Annoy [me]:
- Cloud
- Crypto-anything
- Cyber-anything
- Condone
- Disputed Fact
- “This.”
- First!
- dis
- i c u r
- Curated
- The f-word
- E-mail (should be email)
- hashtag!
- rekt
- yolo
- categorically
- cray cray
- bro, bra, brah, etc..
- And finally, the most annoying word: the “Shortly”!
I’m sure more words will come along..
Maybe I should make a “Words I Love” list to counter the karma here..
