I just hate it when people throw big words into their speech to sound smart...


Indubitably.

All I can think of right now is "Energy" & "Stamina" used in a serious conversation with the video game definition. End up sounding cheesy as hell.

I dislike the word prioritize.
Because it makes me think of powerpoint presentations.

I hate the word adorbs. It's just way too cutesy, even for me. Can't you just say "Oh this is adorable!"? It seems to be used a lot by older My Little Pony fans, women my age, so I see it more than I'd like to. And I don't know why, but I always have this vague idea that adorbs is used in a mocking way, even though it's clearly not.

The word "cracker". Its a hurtful word. Given to slave masters from slaves, because they used a whip. My family ancestry is native American, and we take pride in our heritage. I really don't like being called it, just because i take after the Irish side of my family. :(

e-sport

Gaming cannot be sport...
"Sport is all forms of physical activity which, through casual or organised participation, aim to use, maintain or improve physical fitness and provide entertainment to participants. [...]

Ok I took that definition from Wikipedia, but my dictionnary says the very same thing about being a physical activity and I read the half page long definition.

exemplification

I hate seeing this word on my essays. 'You need to use more exemplification' just because I didn't talk about Nazis doesn't mean that people aren't capable of great evil.
There are some things we all know.
