I've got two new words I want to add to my list.

bastion and eclectic

I see "bastion" get used far too often, specifically around here at GAF, and I think it's because of the Drinky Crow wannabes, considering that he uses it a fair bit himself.

As for "eclectic", it’s a more general thing not specific to GAF. It always gets used to describe someone's taste in music and I noticed its overuse around the time Quentin Tarantino and the soundtracks for his movies started getting popular. Is all music eclectic these days?

Nugget - This word does not remind me of nice things like gold. It makes me think of little dumplings of poo.

Podcasting - Nothing needs to be said here.

Blog - "

Furry, furries or any other word used to describe the people I hate. It shouldn't be real *rocks in corner*

I also hate

FIXED and
/thread when someone posts something that apparently wins the thread, subsititute with "Thread over"

I do however love it when someone says libary ever since I saw eternal sunshine.

also, some girl once said to me "I need to go RAM a TAM" I had to cleanse myself after that.

what? did she mean she wanted to eat a tim-tam or... something else?

I believe she was going to insert a feminine product in her girl parts, but I could be wrong.

 

[Scrow]

yeah i know, i was just making an aussie joke, since I don't believe you have tim-tams (popular chocolate biscuit) in america?

 

[Shogmaster]

I can't stand:

You

Know

what

I'm

saying

In precisly that order. I have no problem with them individually but together in that order, they just want to make me lash out with a loud "NO! I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE HELL YOU'RE SAYING!!!".

I have no idea, I eat cookies in america, and the only biscuits I get come with fried chicken.

you crazy americans.

and yeah, I mean she needed to stuff some kind of expanding cotton wool up her vagina to stop the blood from leaking out everywhere.

nicely put... -_-;

somehow i think i'd almost prefer "ram a tam" to the way you put it :lol

 

[Dsal]

for some reason british ass terminology really annoys me: bum, arse... I think it wouldn't be annoying if an actual British person were using it, but when Americans use it, well WTF. We have words: butt and ass! Use them damnit!

 

[FortNinety]

I'm so fucking sick of "meme" already.

 

[Christoff Yurievich]

"anyways"

You can not have a plural "anyway" so stop trying to.

 

[Minotauro]

meatball

 

[Strike East]

when someone uses the word "TITS" to describe something good i.e "Dude, that new game for xbox looks TITS, know what im sayin?". Or for all you smokers of the devil's grass, when someone uses the word TOKE instead of smoke(also see:Toke up and we tokin') Drives me nuts!

 

[WARCOCK]

"UNOFFICIAL" The only official thing about this is that people using it should be shot.

Stupid variations of stfu

STDF,STDFGDDf, STDDGFFF............ STFU, please.

Omgwtfbqq...... Its old, archaic and only AZN people think its funny.

IBL...... thank god the fad is gone.

 

[snacknuts]

GIT R DONE - See lots of this on bumper stickers and rear windows and shit here in IN. I want to punch all of them in the neck.

Hater - I'm a "hater"? If you mean I hate you, you're correct.

Irregardless - Regardless of the fact that it's in the dictionary now, this is NOT a word.

Pwned, n00b, or anything similar - Kill yourself. Please.

Ha! When I was in IN for work a few months back, I noticed a number of people driving around with those stickers...certainly moreso than any other state I've been to. I took it as my cue that I was officially in the South.

I don't really think there are any specific words I "hate" or have some kind of bile at - not the way most people here are painting their harsh reactions. They're just words.

However, I admit that there are certain contextual use of words and or phrases, I strongly dislike or find tiringly stupid. "Go kill yourself", "[insert] ruins everything", and Internet Tough Guy insertion of "faggot" into whatever phrase. Stuff like that.

But upon reflection, I do think "meme" is the closest thing to a word I honestly hate. Even when I'm forced to use it myself because it's the best choice.

 

[Strike East]

Also another thing that really bothers me is when you are listening to music and the person who has the most annoying voice in the room with you decides they want to sing along! But singing badly is one thing, these shower sopranos also seem to have the worst idea of what the correct lyrics to the song are! Perfect example: Last week my group of freinds and I were listening to some oldies while playing video games whatever...and on comes the song "Blinded by the Light"-Manfred Mann. What followed was the absolute worst display of Lyric butchering I have ever been privy to!

 

[jenov4]

I cringed when I heard the term "Information Highway" back during the boom of the internets.

Nowadays, it's shitty buzzwords like podcasting, blogging, metrosexual (ughhh).

 

[blue_cat]

I hate the word frock and the word panties.

MY oceanography professor needs to really stop saying Wicked Pissah already.
Everytime I hear it in class, I see people with Yankee fitteds on rolling their eyes.
'Wicked Pissah' is like someone taking a knife and jabbing it into my ears repeatedly.

You weren't in the south, you were just surrounded by idiots who wish they were.

 

[hooded pitohui]

"and whatnot." I had a Geology professor who used this phrase a minimum of ten times per class. This eventually led to me keeping a tally and making bar graphs of his useage when I should've been taking down notes about rocks. I did the same thing in high school every time our health teacher pronounced "probably" as "pobably."

 

[Minotauro]

Just heard a new one:

preggers


U-motherfucking-gh.

 

[Cheesemeister]

I can't stand meaningless marketing buzzwords like "synergy" or "paradigm" or "outside the box."

Any terms coined by rappers desperate for a little bit of publicity are largely intolerable since everyone else thinks it's cool to spout meaningless verbiage. The prime offenders in that category would be "bling-bling" and anything ending in "~izzle."

Sports metaphors and commentary can also be rather grating. Watch any two games of the sport and the commentators will hit the same clichés out of the park nine out of ten times.

 

[Zinista]

Here's a sentense I hate.... "G'day Mate... Is that how all you Aussies speak in Australia??"

Yes for fucks sake and we also wrestle crocodiles for a living!!! :lol :lol

 

[gblues]

A serious response: I hate the excessive sexual metaphors used on this and many other boards. A few examples:

1. Pick a screenshot thread for any game that looks amazing (Oblivion, MGS4, PGR3, etc.) Cue at least a dozen crude posts such as "SPLOOGE," "this gives me an erection/boner," or "pure sex."

2. When discussing someone or a company that has a strict policy or unyielding views, it's not too uncommon to hear someone remark that said person/company "has a hard-on for X" (i.e. "DirecTV has a hard-on for service commitments" or "Jack Thompson gets sexual satisfaction from harrassing gamers").

C'mon, do we have to be so crude? You think this might be why we can count the women who post here with our fingers?
