Right as in “I know, right?” Or people who simply end each sentence with “right.”

Pooch (dog or fat flab)

Belly (detest hearing “baby belly” or “baby in belly”)

Anal (outside of medical usage) - “he’s anal about…”

I prefer that babies be in bellies rather than stomachs. Saying baby is in stomach makes it sound like baby was food.

Or you can just say uterus…

What the hell is wrong with the noble scrotum? If not for that hard-working, pain-enduring, wiffle ball-deflectlng, nut-toting little fella, none of us would be here. Clearly the most under appreciated stretch of human real estate.

Nothing wrong with it, I just think it’s an ugly sounding word.

I recently adopted a pet from the Fairfax County Animal Shelter and I noticed that all the staffers there were referring to my animal as “they.” I overheard other staffers talking to other adopters and heard the same thing, so it made me wonder if it was a county policy. Come on, can’t even animals (which are obviously a male or female) be referred to as such? I swear I am not making this up.

Another vote for “Meh.” It’s dismissive at best. People who prefer not to face inconvenient facts seem to like it. I can’t think of a good reason to use it.
