Melisa with one S
Great list, especially the last one! 😉
Danielle
As I live in Vegas, I really feel pantyhose. I would also like to add ointment to the list. It is never something good when ointment is involved.
Stella
Moist.
C (Kid Things)
Migraines make my skin crawl, too.
Sarah, Goon Squad Sarah
Slacks.
I hate that word.
I also hate the word gals.
PJ Mullen
I greatly dislike being called "pal", but being told I "can't" definitely is the winner.
Eric Williams
How about a non-word?
irregardless
Tara R.
I have issues with 'commentator.'
Angie [A Whole Lot of Nothing]
"chicken on pizza"
It was hard to even type that.
*shivvvvers*

Incentivize drives me nuts. Incent is a word, people. Use it!
Moist is really gross.
Tom
mis – chee – vee – ous
The word mischievous should be pronounced "mis chiv us"
Another: "supposably." I guess Webster is okay with it, but I'm not.
Junk Drawer Kathy
I hate "slacks" but I love "pants." Figure that one out.
mrsmouthy
I understand all of them except "soggy." "Moist," I get, but "soggy" is just funny.
Joanne
Incentivize needs to be here again, but also gotten, deplane (!), trousers, and fart.
I could play this game for hours…..
♥Georgie♥
Thank goodness my name isnt on the list! =)
Jill
I don't like panties. Ew
Just Write
I had a field day with these on twitter one day (#wordsthatpissmeoff)
I especially hate 'LOL'. Why can't you write 'ha'? Its a real word and its SHORTER.
The Swints
Blouse. Goes with slacks. Both remind me of 1970s polyester. ICK!!!
meleah rebeccah
#11 is my LEAST favorite word too.
UP
Partner, as in "let me partner with the boss on that"…translation, I'm too big of a wuss to make a decision and/or I have no clue what to do, so I'm going to cover my aspidistra, hold on, I'll be right back.
Partner! Hate it!

I also dislike "moist" and "irregardless," but have to vehemently disagree that "incent" is a word.
If you look up "incent," the definition is "to incentivize." It's simply a back-formation of the proper term, which is "incentivize." In that respect, "incent" is no more of a word than "irregardless."
Another that bothers me: "impact" used as a verb.
Mo
I can't (there's that word!) stand "moist" or "panties". God forbid they're spoken in the same sentence.
*shudders*
that girl
don't think i have ever heard # 3 before.
Bren
I had to follow your Tweet over to your blog. I LOVE IT… those words make my skin crawl too!

….laughing at Mo's comment!
Valerie
Funny. I just came across one that I hate…when people refer to Wednesday as "hump day." yuck!
WeaselMomma
Won't.
Jen
Ahhhhhh.
reading these comments makes me feel a part of a big, weird family.
My word to hate on: squirt.
oh, and khaki
Mum-me
What about puce? (revolting shade of dark purpley-brown)
My mum used to wear puce slacks back in the early 80s.
Sorry, didn't mean to scare you like that.
She used to wear lime green slacks too. In public! Horrors!
Kevin
Turd
Rachael
I definitely agree with 'squirt'.
Also, sack. It's just ruined.
I used to work at a place where they would say "ongoingly". Ugh. It still makes me cringe.
Oscar
Oh snot makes me puke….
