I met this guy and whenever he used to think something was cheap (as in he ripped off/taken advantage of) he'd say:
"Man, that's Jewish!" or "You're Jewish" (You're cheap)
I started using it >_< xp
I even said that in college once when I got a less than average mark on my test. I blurted out, "Ahh, that's Jewish. I should have got a better mark than that"
That's VERY rude. >_<

When I substitute teach I have a strict "Profane Accuracy" Policy on cursing and most slang. I almost never swear myself, but know that many families do, so I won't make my students go to the principal or anything as long as they are not insulting another classmate and as long as they are ACCURATE. Hee hee hee... YES, I am mean.
Therefore, "This homework is so gay!"...is the homework really attracted to papers of the same sex?
Did the calculator stop working because it was having sexual intercourse?

something i have not used since third grade, when a day care teacher pointed it out to me-"how come." the proper way to ask a question is "why."
in my school, "gay," "retarded," and "jewish" are frequently interchanged to show dislike for something.
and.....how the hell is "your mom goes to college" an insult? doesn't that mean she's taking incentive to better herself? (my sister came up with the perfect counter-insult for that-"too bad yours didn't.")
and one thing i do that really confuses people, merely for that fact-when someone is trying to insult me, i respond with, "i know i am, but what are you?" they think it's "i know you are, but what am i?" and begin to retaliate, then stop, having realized i just insulted myself. they then proceed to use their tiny little unused brains, causing great pain, which is very amusing.

I'm tired of people thinking it's ok to type "i" in lowercase.

I don't mind 'lol' but when its over used I don't like it. I usually use it once every conversation I have. But when you use it every other word it gets annoying. I don't like it when people mispell cool and change it into kool. That bothers me a whole lot. I don't like 'retarded or gay', in my opinion it makes you sound retarded or gay. I don't like when people over use the word 'like.' One time, my sister and Iwere sitting next to this girl who was talking to this other girl. My sister and I counted 50 likes in one minute!

Sachiko-'Your mum goes to college' is quoted from Napoleon Dynamite, and therefore could be the cause of people for some reason using it as an insult.
Yes, if someone is going to type 'lol' I prefer it to have a capital letter, if used at the beginning of a sentence, but that is a very reasonable and common expectation, yes? I have always hated people typing the letter i in lower case when referring to themselves, once again, a common and reasonable expectation? Gay and retarded are used quite frequently on the premises of my school, but I don't think I've ever heard Jewish. stare

Mangabrary Everyone has a favorite word, whether they acknowledge it or not. But, was there ever a word you didn't want said? A word that you think should be banned, at least from being used out of context? Discuss it here. WACKY! I really dislike that word! It should be forgotten and done away with. When you say the word, it sounds like someone making a loud, obnoxious slapping noise. WACK ACK CK Ergh!

"Alright."
IT'S NOT A WORD. But at the rate it's being used, sigh... if it's not already in the dictionary, it soon will be.

I love the word "precede", but I CAN NOT STAND when people use it incorrectly.
IT HAPPENS EVERY DAY.
"She then preceded to smack the idiots misusing her favorite word."
THAT'S WRONG. The word they're looking for is "proceed".

But anyway, I agree with what a lot of people here said about the word "gay" as an insult. I despise it and wish that it wouldn't be used as such. It only promotes discrimination and makes the people who are homosexual feel really bad.

Utilize. I hate that word.
Why? Utilize means EXACTLY the same thing as 'use'. The only difference is how the word sounds to other people.
Hence, people use it to sound smarter. And that strikes a nerve, when someone totally tosses a word out in favor of a 'fancier' one.
My history teacher uses it. All it does is make him sound like a total moron.
"The union utilized cannons at the battle of..."
"Utilize a pencil only on this test..."
"You may utilize pictures in your written essay..."
Argh. It makes me want to hit him. It makes him look like a total fool! scream

Most importantly, 'ain't' is NOT a word, reguardless what the dictionary says. The dictionary calls it slang, and that is what it is! 'Ain't' supposidly contains the words 'are' and 'not', but isn't that 'arn't'? I would personally love to slap anyone who uses that word.The englsih language evolves, if you want a something that will never change learn latin ubtil then ain't is something you should accept or smart talking in anglo-saxon(old english). Old english is like a differnet language though, no one will be able to understand you without a decoder ring. I don't think there is a work people shouldn't use, but I think they should look it up in the dictionary first.
