OK, so normally we talk about real viruses here, but let's have fun for a sec, shall we? CNN ran a clip recently that totally made me laugh--a compilation of people's most-hated words, which they called "verbal viruses." Too funny! I definitely have a list of hated-words, how about you?
The words that made it to the CNN most-hated list:
*Recession
*Watchamacallit
*Absolutely
*Hater
Yeah, I don't like the word "recession." It bums me out. I also hated the word "maverick" during the election season (it just got so old!). Current words that make my list:
*Maxi (both the dress and the pad ... shivers up my spine!)
*Nook (and cranny)
*Palpitate (gross!)
*Basically (you know, when people say "basically" before every single sentence?)
I could go on and on.
Tell me, what word or words make your most-hated list?
