The very notion of harboring hatred for a word is perposterous. All words have a proper place and use. Hating the misuse of words or the use of non-words, now that's understandable.
Per the above I cannot stand the use of the non-word "************"... IT'S NOT A WORD but if it were it would mean the exact opposite of what you meant to say.
I also cannot stand the misuse of the following words
1) peruse... most people use it in place of "scan" or "look over" whereas it means the exact opposite. Peruse = to review exhaustively.
2) liberal/liberalizm - in the context of political ideology... most people use this word to describe those with an ideology left of political centre; however, liberalizm is a right-wing ideology demanding minimal government and unregulated markets. On the US political spectrum liberalizm (as an ideology) would be to the right of the Republican Party.
Additionally; I cannot tolerate the misuse of the phrase "I could care less" when trying to convey total indifferance. If you are indifferant then you do not care at all; however, if you are capable of caring less then that means you care. The correct phrase is "I couldn't care less."
Finally, the following corporate buzz words/phrases need to go:
- synergy
- metric (meaning any criteria to be tracked/measured)
- take it off-line (meaning something that should be discussed in private)
- put it in the parking lot (meaning defer until another time)
- proactivity
- value added
- deliverable (meaning something that is to be produced by a given date)
- take away item
