I like the word "ain't." Even with my English degree, I've been known to use it. I don't know why...I'm sure if someone who didn't know me heard me, they'd think I was an idiot. ;D Single mama and daughter walking around using "Ain't." Just for fun, really..... it's one of those "Don't try this at home" stories!

This is a word I've hated ever since the seventh grade and I can't believe I didn't think of it before:
STANK.
I HATE that word with a passion!
Some examples of how I've heard it used:
"Ewww! Dem socks STANK!"
"That STANK-A** said...."
"That CD is STANK!"
I hate the latter more than the first two...when used as an adjective to mean something good. That word should be against the law!

I don't know who did it, but "ain't" and "bling bling" were both put in the dictionary. This world, this world....  |

I hate to hear someone that ISN'T old and from the "country' say the word Skrimp (shrimp). But these two words really cook my goose: When a young person who grew up in a metropolitan area or the like, says "bays" instead of bathe. For instance, " go and 'bays' your funky behind"! Or "electwisity" instead of electricity. Hearing those words used that way automatically sends sharp, needle-like chills up my spine! :cursing: |

I hate to hear someone that ISN'T old and from the "country' say the word Skrimp (shrimp). Its even worse when they say skrimps But these two words really cook my goose: When a young person who grew up in a metropolitan area or the like, says "bays" instead of bathe. For instance, " go and 'bays' your funky behind"! My mom says bays...it is annoying What trips me out is that I have this one aunt who says murch (much) and hursh (hush). That is so country. One day she was bumpin the ends of my hair with the curling irons, and istead of saying, I'm gonna bump your ends real quick she told me she was gonna crump my ends. I tell you, these country folk can make up some words...but maybe saying "bump" your ends isn't normal either...I wouldn't be too sure cause I picked it up from my mom |

i had a friend from eustis florida and he was always saying jurdge instead of judge. it tickles me...sometimes I let out a lil laugh while they're not lookin But there was an incident where I busted out laughing. (By the way, I hate the word burst...it doesn't sound right) Anyway, we were at Taco Bell and this same aunt asked for 3 barootas (burritos). And my lil cousin started laughin too. She was like, "It's burrito grandma". The lady at the window didnt know what she was talking about. She tried to control it, but she laughed too. Then a few nights later we went to Taco Bell but this time her husband was with us. He wanted a chalupa...she asked for a chalupey...I think I was the first one to laugh then also...then him and my lil cousin. I didn't wanna laugh at her, but after a while she started laughin at herself Man, she can tear some words up |

i had a friend from eustis florida and he was always saying jurdge instead of judge. ...we southern Bible belt folks can't forget to add the Church "Ursher" Board (usher board) and a few other tidbits... "make sure you rinch (rinse) off 'dem peaches before you eat them" "I "retched" (reached) down and picked it up!" "These shoes got my toes squozzed too tight" and the one that really makes the hair on the nape of my neck stand up... "Is we fittin' ta go?"  |

"Here comes the URSHAH....the old toilet-flushah..." A new addition to the Wedding March.
Country folks seem to be making up their own words, same with some teenagers. I hate it when people add an "r" to words, like "warsh","hursh", "shursh" (shush).
