i have been in a constant state of giggles for the last 2 days. i had no idea how much conversation safe word would spark. along with the comments, friends and family have been, emailing, texting, calling, and face-booking with their ick words; so many of them which i say on a daily basis. it’s baffling what words drive y’all to drink.
here’s a partial list of some of them:
fruitcake
doily
rally {as in to get up and go}
party {as a verb}
pork
soften
caramel {but only when pronounced “care-ah-mel”}
authentic {used as a describing someone}
pop-up store
freckles
mozzarella {but only when giada de laurentiis utters it; my friend this as ammunition to NOT learn how to cook}
jiggle
clog
encrusted
dollop
panties {especially when said by a man}
enjoy {when food is served}
golden
mastication
donzo
chill-alxin
ointment
oriental
scaly
now these aren’t technically words, but there were big problems with the sayings: “it is what it is,” and: “bring it in for the real thing,” which apparently means “give me a hug”.
then there were the more bodily ick words:
phlegm, pus, mucous, secretions, john boehner, and of course: vagina.
on that note, weekend happy to you m’loves. wishing you an ick free 48 hours.
see you on the other side of sunday.
So sad I am late to this party! I have serious disdain for "pustule" and "macabre" and "whimsical." I think one of next week's blog posts should include words and phrases you DO like. 🙂 (That should be fodder for more great conversation!)
Yes, please do one of words we Do like! I want to play!
Happy weekend Katie! Mozarella the way GdL says it–ha! That always annoys me soooo much! So hilarious that someone thought to add that to the list!

Very interesting to see what words bother people! Hope you have a great weekend, Katie!
have a fantastic weekend!!!
I also don't like "Regatta" well it is a pretty word, I just find it pretentious. It's a fucking boat race, why can't people just say boat race?
