[QUOTE="spazzx625"]What the hell is 'tosh'? :? I don't have any real words that drive me nuts...But when people say things like 'I could care less' or 'expeshully' (instead of especially) or 'for all intensive purposes'...I could go on...

Ugh, I know EXACTLY what you mean. I always get so pissed off when people make simple mistakes like that. Especially when someone says something like "Your stupid."

Fresh, in certain instances. Decadent, when used by marketers to make fattening food look more appealing to health-nuts. Rich, when not referring to wealth (i.e., "rich history").

How would one use decadent to promote food? It's primary meaning means decline/decay :S

It's manila. Manila is the capital of the philippines. I go there often since I live in an adjacent city :P. If you really find if annoying, you'd probably hate it here since it's unavoidably said every once in awhile.

Yes, hence why I said it's *primary* meaning. Even my mini Oxford dictionary doesn't list your definition.

Heard this today. "The game is utter tosh". Tosh...God that is an annoying word but causing borderline frustration? Bit unreasonable I guess :P So I wanna know what are some words that for some reason make you actually MAD when they are said. :P clubhaxor

I not find that word.. annoying, perhaps I not know of the meaning? If only modern society where all individuals could express themselves using words that are rather detailed then slangs.

Well, your mini Oxford dictionary is wrong. I've seen it used that way a million times in advertisements for chocolates or some crap like that.

miscellanies. Whenever i use it, and i mean EVERY TIME, people either think i am trying to say miscellanous, or they simply conclude that i am making up words as i go. curse it all to hell.

I don't like when people doubt that words are words. Like hypnotization. Obviously a word, and I got grief over it.

ni**a- not for the racist problem but because when people say it every other word especially white people.

bomb- i really hate this one, like "last night when we were outy and had hella drinks and mad fun was bomb ni**a" if i ever hear someone talking like that :evil:

addicting... in most cases, they should use the word 'addictive' but most people are too stupid to know i guess.

also i hate it when a lot of people say they have 'OCD' or are 'bi polar' or call someone 'anti-social' when they dont even know what each of those even really means.

Yeah, I get that same impulse. It makes me want to go up them and say "How's this for random?!" before socking it to them. :x
