I like woody sort of words. Bound, prudy, recidivist. Erogenous zone, loose woman… concubine! Errrogenous zooooone!
Funny thing, dear. All the naughty words sound woody.
E: It appears I have misread the question. But I’ll leave my Monty Python reference here.
Ointment… it sounds so gross
Feminism
Between the toxic terfs and the toxic trads i think the word has been sullied, maybe beyond recovery.
I beleive in equality and free expression for all, but I don’t feel like that’s a goal that aligns with most modern forms of Feminism.
It is a word that’s supposed to mean eqality, but these days when someone identifies as a feminist my mind assumes they’re gonna be a reactionary bigot.
‘Woke’ when used as a perjorative.
Moist
Irregardless, inflammable, idiom are all like nails on a chalkboard to me
What’s wrong with idiom?
Just can’t stand the way it sounds, starts with an idi like your going into something then ends with an um. It feels like someone stopped making the name partway through.
Penultimate. Anyone writing about or reviewing the second last of anything uses it in their first breath like their English degree depends on it.
I’m so fucking tired of the word “cringe” lately.
Cringe
biweekly, bimonthly, etc.
Wtf does it mean? Twice a week? Every two weeks? Who knows. What’s the point of this word when it’s so ambiguous.
In the UK we have the word “fortnight” for two weeks, which helps. I also found out very recently that “biannual” mean twice a year and “biennial” means every other year so, yeah, fuck knows.
“y’all” its so wierd how people normalized such a cringe word, and it was originally laughed at because people who often say it dont seem so intelligent.
also the words “academic incest” which is really wierd an cringe, it suppose to describe getting more than 1 degree, usually a grad and a UNDERGRAD In the same university.
“All of you all ought not to have done, do you hear?”
Al’ay’allo’ghtn’t’ve’ny’hear?
Do you say can’t or can not?
Lots of sex words, none of which I will list.
Broth.
I hate that word. To be clear, I have no ethical, cultural or culinary objection to broth, but it’s an awful word to say. You have to empty your lungs to say it, it just sounds like your belching, there’s no standout syllable to emphasise, in fact, is it actually monosyllabic or not? Bro-ffff? Utter horseshit. From now on, it’s Thick Soup.
When people call sex “breeding”.
It sounds like some puritanical shit where they believe that sex is only for procreation.
I only use “breeding” to refer disparagingly to the actions of those who believe that having kids is mandatory or, at least, unavoidable.
I’d say that is more about a kink than anything remotely religious
I’m not typically one to kink shame, but that’s just creepy.
It is, maybe, something very particular as I am not familiar with that term used through “Puritanical thingy”. Sorry, I am located in Europe and lack of knowledge about Puritans 😬 [ANSWER RECEIVED]

Did you look them up? That’s basically what most of the mainstream US churches are based off of.
I had to as I am not (like veeeerrry far away) familiar at all with any mainstream US churches phrases. At least, I have learnt something new
I uh… I’m not sure what your source is, but for mine ‘breeding’ is anything but “only for procreation”
E: in case it isn’t painfully obvious, I am le gay, so that may factor into your source woes :p
that made sense, i was thinking breeding is a gay term, and often used gay porn alot, for young/older trope, which another cringe thing.
It kinda depends on context.
A gay guy? Hedonistic, in the best way.
An incel? Puritanical, in the worst way.
Apparently it’s urban slang.
Sounds like some misogynistic nonsense to me.

Ouch, sorry, my condolences

that’s nice 🙂
Cocktail… it sounds stupid as a word to describe an alcoholic drink. Maybe it’s because I’m not a drinker and I just don’t understand 🤷
Hmm… I like that, sorry. But, there is a little history behind that word.
An alcoholic mixed drink, and derived senses you will need to scroll down a bit to get to the alcoholic drink part.
A peacock’s tail is a flourish, something that adds to the whole without detracting.
A cocktail combines spirits with other flavors to make them something else.
I don’t really drink cocktails, but thr antiquated term makes sense in a particular context.
Now looking it up, apparently the origin of the term isn’t actually known and my interpretation isn’t even in the running, but I’m saving this anyway because it’s amusing.
I’ll also take your definition. It sounds good and if there’s not a known origin, it could be true
