- Blouse. Also "slacks." If you ever see me wearing a "blouse" and "slacks," you can smack me upside the head.
- Turducken. Just for the first four letters alone.
- Teen, Teenager. Sounds dumb to me for some reason.
- Bong. Some stoner must have made that one up.
- Girlfriend in reference to a female friend. It's such one-sided terminology: you'd never say "I went out with my boyfriends," unless, I suppose, you had a small male harem.

Words I Hate

YAY! Someone else who thinks the word 'slacks' was made for the 70's and should've stayed there!
Friday, our new neighbor saw D. and me at the library. I can see we're going to be GREAT friends. She called out, "Hey, girlfriend! Hey, boyfriend!"
Issues.
That's very scary. VERY scary.
My friend Mark and his family had a turducken last weekend. They were so excited it was scary.
I just want to point out, belatedly, that this post was not to decry the turducken, as Rob's aunt cooked one for Chinese New Year a couple of years ago and it was quite tasty.
However, I had the misfortune to see TV footage of John Madden sawing a (cooked) turducken open with the side of his bare hand and stuffing some into his mouth, and that was kind of a turnoff.
May I just interject that John Madden is kind of a turn off...
