I hate..

scallops....it's the Ska back in the throat feeling, combined with fish and sounding like trollop plus scarps=bad.

impresario...not the actual word but the use of the word.It makes me cringe.

I just read a paragraph that had both in it.

Alright, enough partying for you dear. Time for some rest and a little light reading.

I hate the suddenly popular again use of the word retarded in a pejorative sense.

When we were kids we used it all the time. Then in the 90s we learned it was a horrible word and it should never be spoken. Now it is back again.

In the southern US it is still a common term. I remember the first Bonnaroo we went to the local newspaper headline read something like: "Senate to Debate Ethics of Execution for Retarded". I was shocked to see it in bold printed letters.
