This.
I also hate the use of any racial slurs.
Would you disapprove of a black calling a fellow black a nigger?
*"n" word has been bleeped out
what a really hate to hear is meh
I hate it when people try to use the word "queer" in a bad way. (though, it also means "odd" or "unusual" with the meaning of homosexual too)
There are many, some of which were mentioned above. I loathe "alls", as in "Alls you have to do...". Also bothersome: "I (insert heart emoticon here) heart <whatever>".
Quickly becoming increasingly tiresome is the phrase "Work/life balance".
This is likely a thread which could go on forever! 🙂

It's rarely used here. Seriously I just think it should have never become a word.
nifty and swell. I want to just burst every time I hear those words
I hate to hear any one say the C*** word be it male or female and think it sounds really coarse and vulgar. I also can't be doing with text speak.
