Cringy words

What words can you not resist cringing at when you hear them being used?

Personally, I hate the words "hot" and "sexy" when they're being used to describe people. I also hate it when someone calls someone else "babe", it just sounds really weird to me.

This thread is literally like, top banter.

I hate the words 'implement', 'regurgitate', any words that people use to make themselves seem smarter than they are.


How about if that person is "smart enough" to use those words?
bae.

Yolo's got to be the most annoying. I find the whole alpha, beta thing really silly as well.

Do you think maybe people are smart enough to use those words and you're being a bitter ****?
"Uni"

I always make a point of actually typing out "university", because I hate "uni" so much.

Oh, and "bae".
