Tell me that word or term that you cannot stand......

PS: and for the smart asses out there like NecroPhile <<sips wine>> does not count

[tggodfrey]

Epic

Know what I'm sayin'?

Know what I mean?

Da phiggidy phat bomb yo

[RegalSin]

baby

sexy

pussy ( I say vagina, instead )

Dick ( because it is somebodies name, not a body part

Dork ( well I still say dork but everybody forgot about the positive and true negative of the word )

faggot ( a faggot is a over-used penis, or one that resembles a ciggarrete, I hate that word because everybody who uses it, is basically saying ( wuss, wuss, wusssy, wussy ) and little kids use it, because their r-tarded parents )

gay ( I just say non-heterosexual, because gay means happy, ( I am gay your gay, everybody is gay ).

Breasts ( I say nips, ( but then everybody has a problem with nips ) instead, because that is all that needs to be covered up ).

sexting ( becuase calling it AOL just makes more sense ). I remember exchanging pictures back when the internet reached normal people ( poor people ) and this was and is a normal thing, but now because  people ( people born in the mid 1990's ) never grewed up without a cell phone, are just soo simple when it comes to computers, ) the internet had millions of images of people sending pictures back and forth. Before myspace, facecraig, etc etc smart phone. All the proffessionals are outter state.

Here are a couple phrases I can't stand:

- humanitarian military intervention (contradiction in terms)
- Constitutional rights (rights are God-given or natually embued, the Constitution only lists some of them)

[VestCunt]

constitutional amendment

intelligent design

republican primary

killer apps

open relationship

[Nazi NecroPhile]

I'm bothered more by the people that whine about terms being used (i.e. - the clowns that burst into tears and/or fly into a rage every time someone types 'shmup'..... for them, I use shmup almost exclusively when talking about shmups).

[VestCunt]

Oh, you mean Zeta, right?  ;)

"Shmup" is logical in that words have been contracted and jammed together since the beginning of time, but it's important to form words that don't make you sound like an idiot when taking such liberties with language.  I guess I don't mind seeing it typed - it has two fewer characters than "shooter" - but god help me if someone ever says "shmup" to my face.

[Nazi NecroPhile]

Zeta's hardly the only (or even the most vocal) malcontent.

[VestCunt]

C'mon, there aren't any buzzwords or overused pop-culture gobbledygook that bother you?

[Nazi NecroPhile]

Sure, there are plenty of terms that people use that look or sound stupid (verbally saying LOL is one of 'em), but nothing so bad that I want to cut off their head and carry it around in a bowling ball bag.  Well.... not more than usual anyway.

[Arkhan Asylum]

I really can't stand hearing people say uberleet.

most of the people doing it don't even know what uber means, and have never played a game, meaning they shouldn't use the word leet.

OMG THIS FROZEN COFFEE IS UBERLEET.

shut the fuck up, twat.  It's not uber. It tastes like shit.  and it's not leet if you can just fuckin buy it at the counter for 8$

you forgot teh Xevious fakeler

[Tatsujin]

nonono!! Xevious sounds like pure gold in my ears

one of the best sounding game names fo'sho'!

[Keranu]

Overuse of fuck, what a waste of a such a potent word. I made a thread about that a year or two ago. Learn to drop the f-bomb wisely, using it every other sentence does not make one sound tough, it makes them look insecure and unimaginative.

[Joe Redifer]

WTF is an "ego shooter"?

[geise]

shmup!

There ya go necro! 

[CrackTiger]

Butt hurt

133t speak in general

JAP or Jap when describing Japanese games/hardware. Seems to mostly be a EUR thing. It's worse when Jap-users defend its use. Nevermind that it is the exact same as "Nip".

I don't hate it, but I don't like reading SCD used to describe Sega-CD games, since I only ever saw SCD used for Super CD for at least fifteen years straight beforehand.

It hurts my ears when people says "ness" out loud when pronouncing NES or SNES.

All of the above.  Though I may be guilty of saying "ness" on occasion.  I *think* I say "N.E.S.", but I've honestly never really thought about it. 

[Arkhan Asylum]

I hate S-NESS worse than NESS

[geise]

Haha!  Butt Hurt.  I swear, that is in at least every other post on neo-geo.com.  

In total agreement B.T.

On the topic of SNESS.  That is another annoying as all hell saying.  It is way easier to just say Super Nintendo than saying S.N.E.S.

[Keranu]

I also can't stand "tool" and "asshat". People that use those words are tools and asshats themselves. Oops, did that just make me one?

Good ones, especially the last two!

[Tatsujin]

It's probably an European (or even German) only thing and stands for FPS.

[Sparky]

Hahaha.. I agree on a lot of these, but there is always the odd time asshat comes in handy

[CrackTiger]

Yeah, I don't like "Super Ness", but "Sness" is the worst for me.

I've only ever heard it pronounced like that by people getting into ancient gaming many years after it was current. Talking about "all the Sness games from Super Mario to Zelda!"

I always say/think N-E-S and occasionally Nintendo Entertainment System and normally Super Nintendo with the occasional S-N-E-S.


Something else that has bothered me since bitd is when people call a game system or video games in general "Nintendo" or "Sega". Like, "He's always playing his Sega". It's usually/always the context and the way they form their sentences though. Calling NES stuff "Nintendo" didn't seem unusual until the SNES came around. But the Genesis was always GENESIS! with a tiny little sega hidden nearby. It seamed to me at the time it started, that it was people (mostly adults back then) who had been calling the NES/video games "Nintendo" who started calling the Genesis or games in general "Sega". Because it was noticeable before the screaming "Sega!" ads.

You mean like roflmao?

[roflmao]

roflmao is 133t speak? 

News to me.   

I've always thought of it as absurd internet slang.  I love me some absurdity.



That's Salvador Dali walking his anteater through downtown Paris.  He knew absurd.

[Tatsujin]

ROFLMAO @ the staring peeps.

[rag-time4]

Im curious how Xevious is pronounced in le swiss!

"Robust" is a word thats been tossed around constantly in recent years, especially in the political realm... like every virus it seems to have run its course.  One can hope...

[Keranu]

Politics has a ton of buzz words. I can't stand "on the table".

my bad
fixing to (like "I'm fixing to go to the store")
when people call shopping carts "buggies"


and yeah I agree with a lot of people here SHMUP is the worst offender. My buddy says it all the time and it makes me shudder. It sounds so stupid, especially when it's said out loud rather then typed. I always correct him.

[Nazi NecroPhile]

SHMUP SHMUP SHMUP SHMUP SHMUP !!!

Hey Necro!

[Nazi NecroPhile]

Aaarrghhhhh!  Those fucking apostrophes!

[geise]

Haha!  Why"z" it bug you so much? 

BTW I hate it as well.

[Keranu]

One thing that really, really pisses me off in writing is when some starts a sentence with "while", like "While the PC Engine may have been an 8-bit console, it was in competition with 16-bit consoles." I see this used all the time in game journalism, it's usually a blatantly obvious point too.

[guyjin]

Politics has a ton of buzz words. I can't stand "on the table".

This ought to piss you off even more then: in UK English, the phrase has the opposite meaning to the same phrase in US English. when an American says it, we mean 'to give something consideration'; in UK English, it means to remove something from consideration.

For my own contribution: 'going forward' to mean 'in the future'. It's annoying as corpspeak, and it's started to creep into daily usage by some of my friends. 

[geise]

I have a problem with "so anyways..."  after you were talking about something.  Makes it seem like the person doesn't give two shits about what you were talking about. 

*waits for it*

[Tatsujin]

I really can't stand the "Oh, is that so?". Doesn't even matter in what language it is used.

But how can you remove something if it's on the table!

Never thought about that one much, but I agree!

"Top notch" and "polished" are also way overused in video game reviews.

[TR0N]

"like" dunno i find it annoying when a person says it to much in a conversation.

Bad enough when it's used to compare some thing but to hear it every few seconds shesh.......

different metaphors. in their case, it suggests that it's been looked at and put down.

Isn't that the point of that slang, to bring a casual tone to a discussion after going into detail about something?



A phrase that makes me uncomfortable when people use it locally is "cheers" in place of thank you. If I was visiting the UK it wouldn't seem weird, but most of the people I hear using it have a North American accent and vocabulary.
