I'm not a fan of the term "hubby"

Nothing is worse than the word moist. Nothing.

Agree - I remember when "threw up a little in my mouth" was actually funny years and years ago. But's it been used too much now.

What about when your friends refer to each other as "Mom" and "Dad" now that they've had kids?

Around their "kiddos" or all the time? If it's all the time, that's a bit much.

yes

even in reference to cake, as I always have a "flash" of another image in my head before I picture a chocolate slice covered in icing

I hate "healthful meal" and "healthful snack." Yes, by now we all know not to bring Cheetos to the PTA meeting, or Mac & Cheese with crumbled chips on top to our sick friend.

Also, I dislike the word "meal" itself. It's hard to explain and sound rational. But to me this word sounds like some sort of mashed grain thing (and not as useful as polenta, either), or something you feed a reptile (think meal worms). Why can't we just talk about "lunch" and "dinner"?

I hate the word hubby! Especially when everyone knows the husband's first name.

I hate hubby and preggers but am guilty of using kiddos all the time. I used to be a 1st grade teacher and called my students kiddos, my angels, my precious scholars, my little loves and many other things that would probably turn your stomach too. My little angels loved me and I loved them too!

Ew. I teach K and, while I'm sure I love my kids as much as you loved yours, I don't call them any of those things. I just call them "friends." And yes, there's no doubt that they're crazy about me.

I hate all of what's been mentioned by PPs, especially "threw up in my mouth." That phrase jumped the shark years ago. I also can't stand when people say, for example, that they don't "do" things. As in, "We don't do dairy," "We don't do Safeway," "We don't do DC on the weekends." Use the right verb for your sentence, please.

Also, when people on cooking shows refer to food as "guys." -- "Let's flip these guys over," "Let's get these guys out of the oven." So annoying.
