Words you hate

"I have to use the toilet."

I HATE that phrase. You're using the toilet, but do we all need to know that you are? Can't you just say "I have to go to the bathroom"?

I think we should also list words/phrases we love... I just learned "**** Muppet"... apparently when something is horribly screwed up, it can be described as a **** Muppet!

Heh, that reminds me of my favorite alliteration (from George Carlin): deep-dish duck dick.

I was always under the impression that when people specifically mention "the toilet," it was to imply some sort of bowel-related emergency that require immediate attention. "Going to the bathroom" appears too casual or nonchalant for someone who wants others to know he/she will be dropping a bomb.

I hate the word potty for some reason. It just sounds stupid.

I heard the word ridonkulous somewhere and have hated it ever since.

I also hate the word hubby. Just say husband. Its not that hard.

Oh! You know what other term bugs me?! Baby Daddy...

Lets be frank. Its the "Father of your Illegitimate Child". The "Father of your Child" works too... but Baby Daddy? If you can't say it right you shouldn't be having kids... Stupid heads...

I think that's from The BFG by Roald Dahl. It's meant to be a made up word. Like Snozzcumber.

I don't quite understand your protest... Do you find the word toilet vulgar?
Because if saying "I have to go the bathroom" means the same thing, how is it any better?


On the other hand, most people I know have the toilet as an entirely separate room, so actually using the bathroom wouldn't involve using the toilet at all

Yeah... you don't know the full phrase:

I before E except after C, unless pronounced ay as in neighbor and weigh, and words like weird, but those are just weird.


I do know the full phrase, and there's still exceptions to this.

Sometimes that works, but if it doesn't have a bath in it it's not a bathroom. :P
nope.

Wait, is that "toilet" in the British sense, or "toilet" in the intelligent, correct sense?
2008-11-13, 10:14 AM #94
Wait, what's the difference?
I crap and pee in toilets.
Is there any other way to use it?

Well I don't know about you Squirrel King, but I think a good number of people have spent nights hugging the toilet after a long night of drinking...

There's a funny story behind that, but you'd have to know me.

I don't puke in toilets. I clog up sinks or bathtubs instead. (Or outside)
