There are certain words that just hurt your ears. Here's my current number one: bloated.
Bloated, bloat, or any of it's other forms qualify as the least attractive word in the English language.
Got any others?



* I'm unsure as to what other forms of the word bloat that I'm talking about. "Leave me alone, I'm bloating right now." or "I feel so fat, I ate some beans for lunch yesterday and blat the rest of the evening."

My Aunt can't stand the word "moist" and I have to agree with here. If you tell me the cake is moist, I probably don't want any.

Oozing. It's just an ugly word. It describes to perfectly the action that it's meant to. Icky.

a guy I used to work with hates the word "moist" as well.

I can recognize the disgust, but I don't feel it.

conglomerate is ugly as are all of its forms.
so is scinillating.
most words that are German or Russian in origin or likeness.
Fertile.
Yeasty.
anacronym.

crap I'm a nerd.

I don't like the word "lover" when used as a pronoun. If anyone were to tell me something about their "lover" I may vomit all over their shoes.

Cheers to Adam!!

i dont like the word "succulent" or "sack".

"Penetrate" or any variation of that word.

how did this turn into a sex/gentiles thing? Crotch, moist (this can go either way), fertile, puss, yeasty, lover, succulent, sack, penetrate...
maybe it's not the words you all have a problem with. Maybe you're all just scared of your own sexuality.

On another note, I don't like the word "public" when pronounced "pooblic"

Tara: What about the word "Sackulent"?

maybe the sexual/genital words in our language are just disgusting.

please guys, i was talking about a grocery sack...which can often be quite succulent...or sackulent.

i hate the words nipple and supple...I hate any "ipple" or "upple" word really.

I hate the word fluf. I don't fluf my bed, or my pillow, and if I see a small white chunk of tree floating by I don't say "Oh, there's some flying fluf!"

It's lame, and has nothing to do with one's crotchular area.

arwen and i recently decided (while dredding jess' hair) that the word "tip" is a no-no word to ever use.
