 |
|
| These are just some words that really annoy me when I hear, even though I don't know why: Fun, entertainment, absurd, realistic, and unrealistic. Actually, it matters in context of who says it, usually people around me who don't take the stuff I watch or read seriously. Anyone have words that annoy them? |

The word stupid has always sounded very stupid to me.
I can not stand the words douche and erred

| What irritates me, as a pedant, are wrongly pronounced words, like "irregardless" (should be "regardless"), "nuclear" pronounced 'nu-cyu-lar,' and even now "nucleus" pronounced 'nu-cyu-lus,' (should be 'nu-klee-ar', and 'nu-klee-us'), 'should of' ('should have'). I cannot think of others at the moment, but there are many more. |

then you'd hate to be around me, i often pronounce words wrong and character names wrong because i have no idea how they are pronounced to begin with.
like fiat the car company name, i have pronounced a ton of car company and car names wrong and i always catch myself doing it.

Relax.
I don't know why, but whenever I hear someone say that word, I get the urge to do this:
