Not if she pronounced it More-rah (like Maura). My husband and I had this name debate for ages because I really wanted Moira.

OP.

Moist is just... ugh. I don't even know what it is about it but the word makes my skin crawl.

"Yikes" is a MIL special. She says it every two sentences. I'm like, what are you, 12? Is this middle school?

You don't like the word supper, as in the meal? Is it because you'd rather people say dinner?

New poster, and I hate it too - I think using the word supper makes the user sound like a yokel. Hate it!

Ah, but supper and dinner mean two different things. Supper is the evening time meal and it may or may not be dinner, which means the main/biggest meal of the day.

"Like", when not used to express affection or approval.

Example: "He's like the captain of the baseball team." Well, is he the captain or isn't he??!!

All the cutesy variations of husband - hubby, hubs, hubster.

Meaningless corporate-speak like synergy, raise all boats, drill down, peel the onion, robust, bandwidth, scalable, best practice, leverage, world-class, etc.

This doesn't make me hate the word any less.

Sweatpants - disgusting.

I think moist has become that jokey word that you're supposed to mention in lists like this. The word has been around for so long and suddenly a third of the population has a visceral reaction to it? Yeah, we all watched that episode of How I Met Your Mother.

And let's find the PAIN POINTS.

And what is your PRICE POINT? [Do you mean what is my price range? Or exactly how much I paid? Do you even know what you mean?)

But most of all I hate the word "drizzle." Every recipe written in the past 5 years finds a way to use the word, and I hate it.

Don't forget, "from 30,000 feet" (meaning big picture)
