"Hoooonnnnnneeeeeeeeeyyyyyyy" (when said by The Wife)

It usually means my wallet is going to be getting lighter.

"I'm going to be a little difficult"

As said by more than one customer who thinks this makes it easier to accept them re-writing the menu.

 Oh, you have my sympathies!  I was a waitress at a popular pizza chain during my college summers and it sucked!  Special requests weren't a big deal, but we were a corporate store and there was only so much I could do.  Of course, defying the laws of mathematics was only requested of me once!

FINE! ~ as said by a petulant teen
Uh hunh ~ as grunted by anyone
I don't know if it's not followed by "but I'll find out"
orientated ~ unless you're facing the Orient, it's oriented
I'm not disagreeing with you ~ well, does that mean you DO agree with me? If so, why are you continuing to argue?

I'm not fond of "crotch"

Katty, I think "orientated" is British English, while in the US we usually say "oriented"

"calm down" and "smile"

I told my co-worker "saying that to someone as mad as I am right now is not very smart or safe of you."

 Yes this is very irritating. What are people thinking when they tell someone to smile?

 I know, right?!?  She's telling me this as I am preparing to go to "battle" with the most obnoxious, rude, condesending, theiving, lying, pain in the ass customers we have.  I got stuck this time as I couldn't get to the break clock fast enough to clock out when I saw them coming due to the LINE of servers doing the same damn thing.  No one wants to serve them.

I hope I am one of those customers who is easy enough to serve (no special requests) and tips well enough that they don't go running when I show up....lol

None taken. It seems like sort of a silly concept unless you are actually working at an aquarium on exhibits.

Pink. I don't like how it sounds or feels in my mouth, its harsh and awkward.

Acrimony because... to me it doesn't sound like it fits the definition lol so it annoys me.

Then a whole range of weird words used for body parts be it slang, insult or just a fairly common word. Boobs, c*nt, dick etc. None of those words have a pretty feel to them.

I am ashamed to admit I say this much more than I should.

Even knowing what an annying phrase it is.

It's like I can't help myself.

It is what it is.  LOL!

I also don't like dawn. Maybe because it sounds too much like my abusive ex's name. Or maybe because I prefer to sleep in.

Creamery

I know it's just part of a dairy, but it sounds nasty to me.

I also hate it when it's used to describe margarine, claiming it tastes just like butter. No, it does not.

I don't understand Fruit Loops. There isn't a trace of fruit in those things.

Mine has three.

"Got a minute?"

Years ago, my supervisor said this to a co-worker and he was fired minutes later. I've never forgotten it....

"I don't mean to be boom" Used by my boss at the beginning of every 20 min bitch/whine/drama session.

DD hates the word moist, does a little involuntary shudder everytime she hears it. So me and DH try to use it as much as possible. Everytime we manage to use it we giggle. (Disclaimer: No DD was harmed by the use of the word. she is grown up and moved out)

And we wonder why people think we're wiered.

I hate any words said "ebonics style".

No... you don't want to "aks" me a question... you want to "ASK" me one.

"AcrossT"
"Drownded" or "drownding"

I have come to realize that they are part of a strange regional dialect, but I still think it sounds ignorant.

"Boyfriend/girlfriend" for anyone under the age of 16 and over 30. We really need to find and popularize better terminology, especially for the 30+ people.

 I just shut down if "aks" is said.  Thank God no one I know IRL says this.

Also Richard I hate when Dh calls me "honey"

I hate panties too.

I hate the word bi-racial used for black people.

No snark intended - what if that is the term the person prefers to use for him or herself?  You may not like it, but does that mean someone who does shouldn't use it?

When men say "We're pregnant".

I can understand we're having a baby but we're pregnant. If that were true they could get rich.
