A "nails on a chalkboard" word for me is "thriving". Every time someone types on here that their child is "thriving" at this place or that, I want to throw something at the monitor. Ugh.

that's so interesting that a word like that would give you that reaction, then again my word "panties" probably doesn't even affect you in the least!

This is a phrase rather than a word, but "miss your face".

Things with holes gross me out, too.
Bees nests
Octopus tentacles.
Being in back of trucks with pipes on the trailer,
the pipe holes are sickening to look at.

I could never figure out why I've been this way.

This is about word aversions - words that make you feel queasy or weird, not words that annoy you.
