Well, actually... :checking: ...not far off.

I worked with a woman who found the word "gusset" revolting. The funny thing was, she needed a pair of tights (pantyhose) for a specific outfit, and wanted them to be gusset-free. She came back from shopping quite worn out.

How i met your mother did an episode about that girl not liking the word moist. maybe that's what you're thinking about.

My husband and I say "moist" to bother each other.....

Moist!!

Uuugh.

A good friend of mine hates the word moist. I just thought she was a lone freak. What is with that?

Well it's not the first or last time I'm going to hear of that.......There is just something unexplainable and wrong about the word....it doesn't even have to be in a lewd context.......ooh *shiver* yucky.

Moist cake. Good.
Moist panties. Good.
Moist banana bread. Good.

It just sounds good to me.

What about "dewy" then.

Picture a big fat hairy guy sitting on a city bus in August. The bus has broken air conditioning.

Moist.

Yuck.

My wife hates the word "chunk" and even worse is "chunks."

If a food is described as having "chunks" in it, she won't touch it.

The Doctors wanted "chunks" during my husband's recent biopsy. They kept saying it over and over.

He asked them to quit using their fancy jargon and to give it to him straight.....:D

I'm really becoming not too fond of that one as well........

Or perhaps the cute little teenybopper band?

Oh, do tell us, ZenG!

Then we may all shudder or guffaw, according to our several natures.

Words themselves don't cringify me. Misuse of words, well, that can provoke attacks of bewildering wrath. Fits of bewildering wrath being more entertaining than cringing.

But the color of Betadine scrub... I do not like that shade of dark red with a yellowish tone to it. That color is the color of nightmare...

I can't figure out why she did not get into trouble too.

You know you are old when you can hear the phrase "titular bishopric" without at the least having to stifle a snicker.

C'mon, fess up ... you chuckled, didn't you?
